Abstract

Alpha-induced reactions on 154Sm, 233,235,236,238U, and 237Np deformed nuclei are studied theoretically. The effects of hexadecapole deformation, deformed surface diffuseness parameter, and orientation on barrier height and position, fusion cross-section at any angle, and fusion cross-section have been investigated. Both hexadecapole deformation and deformed surface diffuseness can affect barrier characteristics and enhance fusion cross-section. Good agreement between experimental data and theoretical calculations with quadrupole and hexadecapole deformation and deformed surface diffuseness were observed for the 4He+154Sm, 235U, 237Np reactions.
