Atomic nuclei are composite systems, and they may be dynamically excited during nuclear
reactions. Such excitations are not only relevant to inelastic scattering but they also affect …

Recent advances obtained in the field of near and sub-barrier heavy-ion fusion reactions are
reviewed. Emphasis is given to the results obtained in the last decade, and focus is mainly …

Background: Heavy-ion induced two-nucleon transfer reactions are powerful tools to reveal
peculiar aspects of the atomic nucleus, such as pairing correlations, single-particle and …

Background: Double charge exchange (DCE) nuclear reactions have recently attracted
much interest as tools to provide experimentally driven information about nuclear matrix …

Influence of couplings to collective excitations on fusion process has been well established
experimentally and theoretically. Much less is known about the influence of dissipation …

We present results of barrier distribution measurements for Mg 24+ Zr 90, 92 systems by the
backscattering method. The measurements were done at near-barrier beam energies of 68 …

The role of nucleon transfer channel coupling on the sub-barrier fusion excitation function
has been elusive. Many studies have attributed a significant sub-barrier fusion cross-section …

This article is a new edition of the review published six years ago by the same auhors [Eur.
Phys. J. A 54,(2017) 218]. It includes additionally the most recent and significant results …

Background: It was suggested that the shape of the barrier height distribution can be
determined not only by strong reaction channels (collective excitations) but also by weak …

A new version of the CCQEL code has been developed by upgrading the method of
coupling of transfer channels during fusion and backscattering processes. In particular, the …
