On the interpretation of evaporation residue mass distributions in heavy-ion induced fusion reactions

TL;DR: In this article, the mass spectra of the stable or long-lived products of heavy-ion induced fusion reactions are calculated using the assumption that a compound nucleus is formed which decays by multiple emission of neutrons, protons, α-particles and γ-rays.

The Griffin model, complex particles and direct nuclear reactions

TL;DR: In this article, the basic approximations of the Griffin model for nuclear reactions are reexamined, and several improvements in the model input values are suggested, including Proton-neutron distinguishability and the Pauli exclusion principle.

Optical-Model Analysis of Excitation Function Data and Theoretical Reaction Cross Sections for Alpha Particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the complex alpha particle-nuclear potential with small uncertainty at the nuclear surface was determined with the help of experiments with alpha particles in the range of bombarding energies up to 50 Mev in conjunction with this optical model analysis.
