Abstract
We present a realistic calculation of the frictional coefficients for28Si+20Ne system using the two-center shell model on the basis of the linear response theory. Adopting the center separationR and the deformationδ as collective variables we study the dependence of frictional coefficients γ RR , γ Rδ and γδδ on those variables, for various values of the neck parameterɛ, the temperatureT and the smearing widthΓ. The direct application of the linear response theory to the two-center potential gives non-vanishing friction for the simple translational motion of the two fragments even when they are far apart. A method to avoid this energy dissipation is proposed and is used in the calculation. Results show that the form factor of the frictional force is surface-peaked and the peak becomes lower as the prolate deformation or neck formation increases. Temperature dependence is mild, but is not negligible. We compare our γ RR and γδδ with other models.
