Development of the program LISE: application to fusion–evaporation

A new fusion–evaporation model LisFus for fast calculation of fusion residue cross-sections has been developed in the framework of the code LISE. This model can calculate very small cross-sections quickly due to its compared to programs using the Monte-Carlo method. Such type of fast calculations is necessary to estimate fusion residue yields. Using this model the program LISE has now the possibility to calculate the transmission of fusion residues through a fragment separator. It is also possible to use fusion residues cross-sections calculated by the program PACE, which has been incorporated in the LISE package. The code PACE is a modified version of JULIANthe Hillman–Eyal evaporation code using a Monte-Carlo code coupling angular momentum. A comparison between PACE and the LisFus model is presented.
