Reaction dynamics for fusion of weakly-bound nuclei
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss several open problems of fusion reactions induced by weakly bound nuclei. For this purpose, we solve a one dimensional three-body Hamiltonian with the coupled-channels formalism. We show that the continuum-continuum couplings substantially reduce the total fusion probability at energies above the barrier compared with the no-breakup case, although the fusion probability remains enhanced at subbarrier energies. We then discuss a role of transfer process in fusion of weakly bound nuclei, and point out that removing spurious Pauli forbidden transfer components from the calculation may be crucial at energies below the barrier. Calculations based on the three-body classical trajectory Monte Carlo (CTMC) method are also presented in order to discuss how to model complete fusion process.

Towards the fusion of weakly bound projectiles with heavy tar- gets with proximity based potentials
Theoretical calculations using proximity based potentials are performed to predict the fusion cross sections of the reactions of weakly bound projectiles especially halo nuclei with 209Bi target. Both neutron halo as well as proton halo projectiles are taken in the present analysis. In particular, we study the role of extended nuclear radii of these weakly bound nuclei on the fusion cross secti...
متن کاملUnderstanding the interplay between sub–barrier breakup of Li and above-barrier suppression of complete fusion
With the discovery of halo nuclei, and recent intensive development of radioactive ion beams (RIBs) around the world, there is renewed interest in studying interaction of weakly-bound light nuclei as a basis for understanding interactions of halo nuclei and RIBs. Using a novel experimental approach [1], reactions of the weakly–bound nuclei Be and Li with heavy targets consistently showed suppre...
متن کاملNear-barrier Fusion Induced by Stable Weakly Bound and Exotic Halo Light Nuclei
The effect of breakup is investigated for the medium weight 6Li+59Co system in the vicinity of the Coulomb barrier. The strong coupling of breakup/transfer channels to fusion is discussed within a comparison of predictions of the Continuum Discretized Coupled-Channels model which is also applied to 6He+59Co a reaction induced by the borromean halo nucleus 6He.
متن کاملFusion suppression and sub-barrier breakup of weakly bound nuclei.
The mechanism for the large suppression of complete fusion in the 9Be+208Pb reaction has been investigated through measurement of sub-barrier breakup of 9Be. Excluding breakup through the 8Be ground state, whose lifetime is too long, a prompt breakup component remains, having sufficient probability to explain the observed suppression of complete fusion. This appears to be associated with intera...
متن کاملCanto, Donangelo and Hussein 2. THE FUSION CROSS SECTION IN COLLISIONS OF STRONGLY BOUND NUCLEI
We review the theoretical methods to evaluate fusion cross sections in collisions of weakly bound nuclei. We point out that in such collisions the coupling to the breakup channel leads to the appearance of different fusion processes. The extension of the coupledchannel method to coupling with the continuum is the most successful treatment for these collisions. However, evaluating separate cross...
