While it is well established that the ground state reorientation coupling can have a significant influence on the elastic scattering of deformed nuclei, the effect of such couplings on transfer channels has been much less well investigated. In this letter we demonstrate that the 208Pb(7Li,6He)209Bi proton stripping reaction at an incident energy of 52 MeV can be well described by the inclusion of the 7Li ground state reorientation coupling within the coupled channels Born approximation formalism. Full finite-range distorted wave Born approximation calculations were previously found to be unable to describe these data. Addition of coupling to the 0.478-MeV 1/2- excited state of 7Li, together with the associated two-step transfer path, has little or no influence on the shape of the angular distributions (except that for stripping leading to the 1.61-MeV 13/2+ level of 209Bi which is significantly improved) but does affect appreciably the values of the 209Bi -> 208Pb + p spectroscopic factors. Implications for experiments with weakly-bound light radioactive beams are discussed.

The recent works by the present authors and their collaborator predicted that the real part of heavy-ion optical potentials changes its character from attraction to repulsion around the incident energy per nucleon $E =$ 200 -- 300 MeV/u on the basis of the complex $G$-matrix interaction and the double-folding model (DFM) and revealed that the three-body force plays an important role there. In the present paper, we have analyzed the energy dependence of the coupling effect with the Microscopic Coupled Channel (MCC) method and its relation to the elastic and inelastic-scattering angular distributions in detail in the case of the $^{12}$C + $^{12}$C system in the energy range of $E =$ 100 -- 400 MeV/u. The large channel coupling effect is clearly seen in the elastic cross section although the incident energies are enough high. The dynamical polarization potential is derived to investigate the channel coupling effect. Moreover, we analyze the effect of imaginary part of the coupling potential on elastic and inelastic cross sections.
Herein, we investigated the channel coupling (CC) effect on the elastic scatterings of lithium (Li) isotopes ($A =$ 6--9) for the $^{12}$C and $^{28}$Si targets at $E/A =$ 50--60 MeV. The wave functions of the Li isotopes were obtained using the stochastic multi-configuration mixing (SMCM) method based on the microscopic-cluster model. The proton radii of the $^{7}$Li, $^{8}$Li, and $^{9}$Li nuclei became smaller as the number of valence neutrons increased. The valence neutrons in the $^{8}$Li and $^{9}$Li nuclei exhibited a glue-like behavior, thereby attracting the $alpha$ and $t$ clusters. Based on the transition densities derived from these microscopic wave functions, the elastic-scattering cross section was calculated using a microscopic coupled-channel (MCC) method with a complex $G$-matrix interaction. The existing experimental data for the elastic scatterings of the Li isotopes and $^{10}$Be nuclei were well reproduced. The Li isotope elastic cross sections were demonstrated for the $^{12}$C and $^{28}$Si targets at $E/A$ =53 MeV. The glue-like effect of the valence neutrons on the Li isotope was clearly demonstrated by the CC effect on elastic scattering. Finally, we realize that the valence neutrons stabilized the bindings of the core parts and the CC effect related to core excitation was indeed reduced.
Background: Formation of a fully equilibrated compound nucleus is a critical step in the heavy-ion fusion reaction mechanism but can be hindered by orders of magnitude by quasifission, a process in which the dinuclear system breaks apart prior to full equilibration. To provide a complete description of heavy-ion fusion it is important to characterize the quasifission process. In particular, the impact of changing the neutron-richness of the quasifission process is not well known. A previous study of Cr + W reactions at a constant 13 % above the Coulomb barrier concluded that an increase in neutron-richness leads to a decrease in the prominence of the quasifission reaction channel. Purpose: The interplay between the fusion-fission and quasifission reaction channels, with varying neutron-richness, was explored at a constant excitation energy, closer to the interaction barrier than the previous work, to see if the correlation between neutron-richness and quasifission is valid at lower energies. Methods: Mass distributions were determined for eight different combinations of Cr + W reactions at the Australian National University at 52.0 MeV of excitation energy in the compound nucleus. Results: A curvature parameter was determined for the fission-like fragment mass distributions and compared to various reaction parameters known to influence quasifission. Conclusions: The present work demonstrates that at energies near the interaction barrier the deformation effects dominate over the neutron-richness effects in the competition between quasifission and compound nucleus formation in these Cr + W systems and is an important consideration for future with heavy and superheavy element production reactions.
Emissions of free neutrons and protons from the central collisions of 124Sn+124Sn and 112Sn+112Sn reactions are simulated using the Improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics model with two different density dependence of the symmetry energy in the nuclear equation of state. The constructed double ratios of the neutron to proton ratios of the two reaction systems are found to be sensitive to the symmetry terms in the EOS. The effect of cluster formation is examined and found to affect the double ratios mainly in the low energy region. In order to extract better information on symmetry energy with transport models, it is therefore important to have accurate data in the high energy region which also is affected minimally by sequential decays.
Within the framework of the dinuclear system (DNS) model, the fusion reactions leading to the compound nuclei 274Hs and 286Cn are investigated. The fusion probability as a function of DNS excitation energy is studied. The calculated results are in good agreement with the available experimental data. The obtained results show that the fusion probabilities are obviously enhanced for the reactions located at high place in potential energy surface, although these reactions may have small values of mass asymmetry. It is found that the enhancement is due to the large potential energy of the initial DNS.
