Barrier distributions from the fusion of oxygen ions with Sm 1 4 4 , 1 4 8 , 1 5 4 and W 186

TL;DR: In this representation it is clearly seen that the excitation functions are not smooth and featureless; each is unique and is shown to depend on the details of the structure of the interacting nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conclusive evidence for the influence of nuclear orientation on quasifission.

TL;DR: Fission fragment anisotropies and mass distributions have been measured to high accuracy, over a wide range of angles, for the full momentum transfer fission reaction as mentioned in this paper, where the bombarding energies spanned the fusion barrier distribution, in steps of 1 MeV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fusion-Fission versus Quasifission: Effect of Nuclear Orientation

TL;DR: Fission fragment angular distributions and cross sections have been measured for the reaction of [sup 16]O+[sup 238]U at energies around the Coulomb barrier, interpreted as showing that collisions with the tips of the deformed target nucleus lead to quasifission, collision with the sides to fusion-fission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental barrier distributions for the fusion of 12 C, 16 O, 28 Si and 35 Cl with 92 Zr and coupled-channels analyses

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the excitation functions for the fusion of the Coulomb barrier regions and compared with the results of realistic coupled-channels calculations, which included couplings to all orders and treated excitation energies correctly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probing fusion barrier distributions with quasi-elastic scattering

TL;DR: In this article, a new procedure to extract representations of fusion barrier distributions is suggested and applied, and the results are compared with barrier distributions obtained from fusion data and with coupled-channel calculations.
