Evidence of compound nucleus theory in the population of incompletely fused composite system 160Dy
EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL A(2024)
摘要
The fusion excitation functions of evaporation residues, populated through complete fusion and/or incomplete fusion, were measured in the O-18+Nd-146 system at an incident beam energy of approximate to 3-7 MeV/nucleon. These results were then compared with those obtained from the previously reported O-16+Nd-148 system. This comparison is particularly relevant since both systems lead to the population of the same compound nucleus, Er-164*, in the case of complete fusion, and the same intermediate composite system, Dy-160*, in the case of incomplete fusion. Significant enhancements in the measured excitation functions of evaporation residues populated via alpha-emitting channels indicate the population of such residues via incomplete fusion in addition to complete fusion. Further, a comparison of the measured data for O-18+Nd-146 and O-16+Nd-148 systems shows interesting results. The complete fusion and incomplete fusion cross-sections, reduced by three different procedures, are found to satisfactorily match each other, despite the major difference in the alpha- breakup threshold values of the projectiles O-18 (6.23 MeV) and O-16 (7.16 MeV). The effect of different alpha-breakup threshold values of the projectiles O-18 and O-16 was not observed in the comparison of incomplete fusion data for the systems O-18+Nd-146 and O-16+Nd-148. This may be attributed to the fact that the residues populated in the exit channel are emitted from the same intermediate composite system Dy-160* and also there is a high resemblance in the entrance channel mass asymmetry and other structural properties of these systems.
