O18+Pd110: Measurements and realistic coupled-channel analysis in a transitional region

The inelastic, two-neutron and alpha transfer and quasielastic cross sections for the O-18+Pd-110 system have been measured in the near barrier region (40 MeV <= E-lab <= 58 MeV). The experiments were performed in the Sao Paulo Pelletron laboratory. Coupled-channel analysis of the experimental data was performed using the Sao Paulo potential as a microscopic bare interaction. In the calculations, low-lying inelastic excitations, one- and two-neutron and alpha transfers to the target were considered as the main couplings, with no extra surface absorption. The agreement between the theoretical results and the experimental data is good. The role played by the coupled channels is very different in comparison with similar data analyses for the closed-shell region around Ni-58.
