Abstract

The role of neutron transfers is investigated in the fusion process below the Coulomb barrier by analyzing ³²S+⁹⁰Zr and ³²S+⁹⁶Zr as benchmark reactions. A full coupled-channel calculation of the fusion excitation functions has been performed for both systems by using multi-neutron transfer coupling for the more neutronrich reaction. The enhancement of fusion cross sections for ³²S+⁹⁶Zr is well reproduced at sub-barrier energies by NTFus code calculations including the coupling of the neutron-transfer channels following the Zagrebaev semiclassical model. We found similar effects for ⁴⁰Ca+⁹⁰Zr and ⁴⁰Ca+⁹⁶Zr fusion excitation functions.
