Abstract

We purpose to measure the 7Li + 120,122Sn reactions in of 18 to 26 MeV by the gamma-charged particle coincidence technique with Saci-Perere spectrometer. These kind of measurements are unpublished and allow to obtain simultaneously the cross sections of inelastic channels and the transfer to excited and incomplete fusion channels, as a function of the scattering angle and beam energy, besides it is also possible to obtains a good estimative of the complete fusion suing the single gamma technique. These measurements are relevant to the comprehension of the reaction mechanisms evolved and also to develop nuclear models which aim to predict the cross sections of the several reaction channels. Reactions involving low bound nuclei have huge importance to astrophysical processes, in which the reactions involving radioactive nuclei are also important.
