Abstract

A discussion is presented of the important dynamical factors influencing the yield in heavy-ion transfer reactions at energies below the Coulomb barrier together with illustrations of calculations for various targets and beams. It is found that the distances of closest approach of the ions before and after the reaction should be similar if cross sections are not to be extremely small. Consideration is given to the implications of this requirement as regards possible experimentation. Recoil effects are found to be important, especially for beams incident on very heavy targets and a technique is suggested for including these effects in the DWBA formalism.
