Description

The interacting boson model with s and d bosons has been used to describe the nuclear structure effects in sub-barrier fusion. We generalize the previous formalism to include arbitrary kinds of bosons in the target nucleus and investigate whether g bosons have any discernible effect on fusion reactions. In particular, we compare the fusion cross sections, barrier distributions, and the average angular momentum of the compound nucleus in the sd and sdg boson models
