132Sn+96zrreaction: A Study of Fusion Enhancement/hindrance
Bulletin of the American Physical Society(2008)
Abstract
Capture-fission cross sections were measured for the collision of the massive nucleus Sn-132 with Zr-96 at center-of-mass energies ranging from 192.8 to 249.6 MeV in an attempt to study fusion enhancement and hindrance in this reaction involving very neutron-rich nuclei. Coincident fission fragments were detected using silicon detectors. Using angle and energy conditions, deep inelastic scattering events were separated from fission events. Coupled-channels calculations can describe the data if the surface diffuseness parameter, a, is allowed to be 1.10 fm instead of the customary 0.6 fm. The measured capture-fission cross sections agree moderately well with model calculations using the dinuclear system model. If we use this model to predict fusion barrier heights for these reactions, we find the predicted fusion hindrance, as represented by the extra push energy, is greater for the more neutron-rich system, lessening the advantage of the lower interaction barriers with neutron-rich projectiles.
