Abstract
The shape, separation and orientation dependence of the interaction potential and fusion cross section of the system are investigated within the double-folding model of deformed nuclei. The effective nucleon - nucleon interaction is taken to be the M3Y, which has been derived from G-matrix elements and based upon the Reid soft-core potential. A deformed Fermi shape with quadrupole and hexadecapole deformations is considered for the density distribution of . It is found that both the interaction potential and fusion cross section strongly depend on the deformations and orientations. The integrated fusion cross section over all orientation angles yields an excellent agreement with the experiment data.
