Complete fusion of the 14N + 16O and 15N + 16O systems

C. Volant , S. Gary

Cross sections for evaporation residues following the complete fusion of the 14N + 16O and 15N + 16O systems have been measured with a ΔE-E counter telescope. The distributions of the different elements are well reproduced by evaporation calculations based on the statistical theory. The fusion excitation functions for both systems have similar behaviours in contrast with what was observed for the 14N + 12C and 15N + 12C systems. Critical angular momenta for the fusion of the 14N + 16O system agree with those obtained from a previous Hauser-Feshbach analysis of the 16O(14N , 6Li)24Mg reaction. Comparisons with data for the 19F + 12C system are also presented.
