▪ Abstract The experimental extraction of detailed barrier distributions has brought a
significant advance in the study of the fusion of heavy nuclei, and indeed in the entire heavy …

In this review the phenomenon of heavy-ion fusion at low energies is discussed in detail,
with special emphasis given to the fusion of loosely bound stable and unstable projectiles …

Recent theoretical advances in the study of heavy-ion fusion reactions below the Coulomb
barrier are reviewed. Particular emphasis is given to new ways of analyzing data (such as …

Fusion excitation functions for the reactions Sm 1 4 4, 1 4 8, 1 5 4 and W 186+ O 16 and Sm
144+ O 17 have been measured with high precision, both in the cross sections and the small …

Some aspects of heavy-ion reactions close to the Coulomb barrier are reviewed in
experiment and theory. Fusion, complex reactions and quasi-elastic reactions are covered …

Uncertainties in the comparison of fusion and reaction cross sections of different systems involving
weakly bound nuclei Page 1 PHYSICAL REVIEW C 71, 017601 (2005) Uncertainties in the …

The delayed x-ray detection technique was used to measure complete and incomplete
fusion cross sections for the Be 9+ Sm 144 reaction at sub-and near-barrier energies. Elastic …

The role of the breakup process of the weakly bounded light projectile 9 Be, on the near
barrier fusion reaction and elastic scattering, is investigated by two different approaches …

Complete and incomplete fusion cross sections for the Be 9+ Ta 181 system were measured
at near barrier energies, using the offline gamma ray spectroscopy method. The results were …

Fusion cross-sections σ for the reaction 186W+ 16O have been measured with high
precision at small energy intervals, for energies E spanning the barrier region. The …
