Traces of Landau-Zener transitions in the fusion cross section of heavy nuclei

Description

Nucleus-nucleus collisions with center of mass energies Esub(CM) close to the Coulomb barrier are investigated within the framework of time-dependent two-center shell model states. The influence of Landau-Zener transitions on the nucleus-nucleus potential is studied in detail as a function of Esub(CM). Dynamical barrier shifts and barrier fluctuations are evaluated for central collisions of 90Zr + 90Zr, 92Zr + 92Zr, 96Zr + 96Zr and their effect on the fusion probability is discussed explicitly. While for 90Zr + 90Zr no modification of the barrier penetration is found a relative enhancement (reduction) of the fusion probability up to a factor of 4 is obtained for 92Zr + 92Zr and 96Zr + 96Zr.
