Study of Nucleon-Transfer Processes in Low-Energy Reactions of Helium Isotopes with ^197 Au Nuclei

The cross sections for the production of the isotopes ^196,198 Au in ^4,6,8He+^197 Au reactions are calculated based on numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for outer neutrons of colliding nuclei. It is shown that the fusion–evaporation contribution to experimental data is small. By and large, the results of the calculations agree with experimental data.
