Reaction Dynamics of Weakly-Bound Few-Body Nuclei at Energies Around the Coulomb Barrier

Unraveling the Reaction Mechanisms Leading to Partial Fusion of Weakly Bound Nuclei

“…The ICF is usually interpreted a two-step process [9,[26][27][28][29][30]. For a two-body weakly bound projectile a with a target A, such a process may symbolically be written as…”

“…The latter corresponds to the incomplete fusion (ICF) process mentioned in the introduction. The ICF is usually interpreted a two-step process [9,[26][27][28][29][30]. For a two-body weakly bound projectile a with a target A, such a process may symbolically be written as…”

Detailed analysis of the 6Li breakup in the field of the 209Bi nucleus

“…The effect of the projectile virtual breakup on the elastic scattering was found to be strikingly large and absolutely important to reproduce the observed cross sections. The dynamical polarization potentials (DPPs) induced by the breakup of the 6,7 Li and 12 C projectiles are found to be strongly repulsive and, for 6 Li, very weakly absorptive. In this context, the computations performed within the DFP and CFP frameworks demonstrated the necessity of decreasing the real potential strength, which is linked to the significance of the coupling effect on the 6 Li breakup channel.…”

“…This work is devoted to investigating the interaction mechanism of 6 Li projectiles scattered from a 209 Bi target at energies comparable to the E b utilizing various potentials and approaches. In order to shed light on the general features of the 6 Li + 209 Bi nuclear system, we are briefly summarizing the most important experimental [2][3][4] as well as theoretical [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] studies that were devoted to investigating it. In [2], the elastic and inelastic angular distributions (ADs) for the 6 Li + 209 Bi system were measured at different energies close to the Coulomb barrier (E b ∼30 MeV).…”
