The triton angular distribution for the 12C(7Li,t)16O* reaction is measured at 20 MeV, populating discrete states of 16O. Continuum discretized coupled reaction channel calculations are used to to extract the alpha spectroscopic properties of 16O states instead of the distorted wave born approximation theory to include the effects of breakup on the transfer process. The alpha reduced width, spectroscopic factors and the asymptotic normalization constant (ANC) of 16O states are extracted. The error in the spectroscopic factor is about 35% and in that of the ANC about 27%.
Evaporation residue (ER) cross sections for the 16180 + l98Pt reactions are measured in order to investigate fission hindrance. Compound nuclei (2l4'216Rn) are formed in the above fusion reactions at excitation energies in the range of 40-68 MeV. The experimental ER cross sections are compared with predictions from the statistical model calculations of compound nuclear decay where Kramers' fission width is used. The strength of nuclear dissipation is treated as a free parameter in the statistical model calculations in order to fit the experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
