Description

The ground state deformation of the colliding partners has been found to influence dramatically the sub-barrier fusion cross sections. In order to study the role of light deformed nuclei in the fusion mechanism, fusion and barrier distribution measurements are carried out for the systems 16O, 28Si+120Sn. The 28Si nucleus has a large ground state quadrupole deformation of β2 = -0.4 and hexadecapole deformation (β4=0.1), and thus provides an ideal case for the purpose
