Abstract
The partial cross sections for the 12C + 14C reaction have been determined in the energy range E c.m. = 5–8 MeV by measuring, with an HPGe detector, the yields of the characteristic γ-rays emitted from the residual nuclei. Comparison of the partial cross sections with those of the 13C + 13C reaction shows that the two reactions proceed mainly via the compound-nucleus formation and subsequent statistical evaporation of particles. The total fusion cross section is well described by the optical-model calculation using standard parameters. A small enhancement observed in the total fusion cross section at E c.m. ⋍ 6 MeV , is correlated with the E x = 25.35 MeV, Γ = 1.75 MeV fine-structure resonance observed in the γ + 26Mg photonuclear reaction.
