Abstract

We have studied the role of spatial extension (Halo structure) of 6 He and that of breakup reaction channel in the fusion of 6 He +238 U system. The breakup channel effects are taken into account within the framework of the dynamic polarisation potential approach. It has been found that the fusion cross section enhances due to the static effects of spatial extension of the projectile in the entire energy region. The breakup effects, however, results in the above barrier suppression and below barrier small enhancement in the fusion cross section. The matching between the data and the predictions improves significantly by the inclusion of both static and breakup effects.
