Abstract
The potential energy landscape for the [Formula: see text] synthesis is evaluated in the framework of the macroscopic–microscopic model. The fragmentation potential calculated in a configuration space characterized by five degrees of freedom associated to elongation, mass asymmetry, necking, and left/right deformations reveals the existence of several minima and some pronounced valleys. The valleys correspond mainly to the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] quasifission channels, but also for some paths in the formation of the compound nuclear system. In this context, two different paths are obtained for the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] entrance channels. The [Formula: see text] path leads to the formation of an isomeric minimum that decays by fission. The [Formula: see text] path evidences a larger probability for the formation of the compound nucleus. Therefore, the two distributions obtained for the associated quasifission processes are very different.
