Further investigation on the fusion of 6Li with 209Bi target at near-barrier energies

Abstract

Abstract The complete and incomplete fusion cross sections for 6Li+209Bi were measured via the in-beam γ-ray method around the Coulomb barrier. The cross sections of (deuteron captured) incomplete fusion (ICF) products were re-quantified experimentally for this reaction system. The results reveal that the ICF cross section is equivalent to that of complete fusion (CF) above the Coulomb barrier and dominant near or below the barrier. A theoretical calculation based on the Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel (CDCC) method is performed for the aforementioned CF and ICF cross sections, and the result is consistent with the experimental ones. The universal fusion function (UFF) is also compared with the measured CF cross section with different barrier parameters, demonstrating that the CF suppression factor is quite sensitive to the choice of potential, which can reflect both dynamic and static effects of breakup on the fusion process.
