The 2n-Evaporation Channels In the Fusion of [sup 4,6]He with [sup 206,208]Pb
2009
Excitation functions of the reaction products were measured for the reactions induced by 4,6He projectiles on 206,208Pb targets, leading to the same compound nucleus. This was accomplished by using the stacked‐foil‐activation technique. The identification of the reaction products (accumulated in the Pb targets) was done by their radioactive alp ha decays. The excitation functions for the 2n evaporation channels were obtained at energies below the sub‐Coulomb barrier region. A large value of the fusion cross section was observed in the case of the reaction induced by the weakly bound 6He projectile.
Comparing non-perturbative models of the breakup of neutron-halo nuclei
2012
Breakup reactions of loosely-bound nuclei are often used to extract structure and/or astrophysical information. Here we compare three non-perturbative reaction theories often used when analyzing breakup experiments, namely the continuum discretized coupled channel model, the time-dependent approach relying on a semiclassical approximation, and the dynamical eikonal approximation. Our test case consists of the breakup of 15C on Pb at 68 MeV/nucleon and 20 MeV/nucleon.
