Journal ArticleDOI
Direct and compound reactions induced by unstable helium beams near the Coulomb barrier
A. Navin,Vandana Tripathi,Y. Blumenfeld,V. Nanal,Cedric Simenel,J. M. Casandjian,R. Raabe,Dominique Bazin,A. Chatterjee,Mahananda Dasgupta,S. Kailas,Roy Crawford Lemmon,K. Mahata,R. G. Pillay,E. C. Pollacco,K. Ramachandran,M. Rejmund,A. Shrivastava,J. L. Sida,Erik Tryggestad +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, partial residue cross sections for fusion and neutron transfer obtained from the measured intensities of characteristic in-beam $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ rays for the $6}mathrm{He}+^{63,65}-cu systems are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for transfer followed by breakup in 7Li + 65Cu
A. Shrivastava,A. Navin,N. Keeley,K. Mahata,K. Ramachandran,V. Nanal,V. V. Parkar,A. Chatterjee,S. Kailas +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of the angular distribution using coupled channels Born approximation calculations has provided clear evidence that the observed α + d events arise from a two-step process, i.e., direct transfer to the 2.186 MeV (3 + ) resonance in the α+ d continuum of 6Li followed by breakup, and are not due to final state interaction effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angular Momentum and Cross Sections for Fusion with Weakly Bound Nuclei: Breakup, a Coherent Effect
TL;DR: An increase in the measured average angular momentum, above the barrier and its consistency with that obtained from the fusion excitation function for weakly bound nuclei, is reported, demonstrating that the effect of breakup on fusion is coherent, like coupling to any nonelastic channel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression of complete fusion in the Li 6 + Sm 144 reaction
P. K. Rath,S. Santra,Neelam Singh,R.M. Tripathi,V. V. Parkar,B. K. Nayak,K. Mahata,R. Palit,Suresh Kumar,Swagata Mukherjee,S. Appannababu,R. K. Choudhury +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the complete fusion excitation function at near barrier energies can be suppressed by 32% in the case of the Coulomb barrier penetration model with strongly bound projectiles forming a similar compound nucleus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring fusion at extreme sub-barrier energies with weakly bound nuclei.
A. Shrivastava,A. Shrivastava,A. Navin,A. Lemasson,K. Ramachandran,V. Nanal,M. Rejmund,Kouichi Hagino,Takatoshi Ichikawa,S. Bhattacharyya,A. Chatterjee,S. Kailas,K. Mahata,V. V. Parkar,V. V. Parkar,R. G. Pillay,P. C. Rout +16 more
TL;DR: The present results for a system with weakly bound projectile confront the current understanding of the fusion hindrance at these low energies, underlying the role of internal reorganization on the dynamical path towards fusion.
