Abstract
The fusion dynamics of 12C + 16O and 16O + 16O astrophysical reactions is investigated using the relativistic mean-field (RMF) formalism for the non-linear NL3* parameter set. The RMF densities, along with the widely adopted M3Y and relativistic R3Y nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction potentials, are used to obtain the nuclear potential within the double folding approach. The ℓ-summed Wong model is used to obtain the fusion cross-section. The ℓmax values are extracted from the sharp cut-off model. The fusion cross-section is also represented in terms of the astrophysical S-factor, and the results are compared with the available experimental data. The microscopic R3Y NN potential is observed to give a reasonable fit to the experimental cross-section.
