Abstract

Excitation functions for quasi-elastic scattering (elastic, inelastic and transfer) were measured for the 16O +64 Zn, 17O +64 Zn and 18O +64 Zn systems, at backward angles of 161º, in the laboratory reference system, and in the energy range between 30:0 and 46:0 MeV using steps of 0:5 and 1:0 MeV , for energies below and above the Coulomb barrier. Performing a derivative on experimental data we obtained the quasi-elastic barrier distributions for the three systems, which are equivalent to the fusion barrier distributions, and make evident the reaction mechanisms of the system. To obtain these data a good charge resolution \"Z\" of a gas proportional counter, E -E, was necessary and also the use of surface barrier detectors placed at forward angles, ±30º and -45167 for normalization. A theoretical analysis of the data was performed using the coupled reaction channel model CRC through the use of FRESCO [Thom 88] and CQUEL [Hagi 04] (a new version of CCFULL [Hagi 99]). To avoid the use of free parameters, in our calculations, we decided to use the real potential of the double-folding São Paulo Potencial [Cham 02], which describes physically the nucleus-nucleus interaction. It is based on Pauli non-locality and is characterized by the exchange of nucleons. The imaginary potential, responsible for the absorption of particles in a fusion process, was restricted to a very short range, and thus, it does not affect the quasi-elastic processes. In the theoretical analysis of the transfer excitation functions of one and two neutrons for the 17O+64Zn and 18O+64Zn systems, we obtained the spectroscopic information for some experimental states in 65Zn and 66Zn, which were used in the analysis of the excitation function and quasi-elastic barrier distributions for each system. The results obtained in these three systems are very interesting: the 16O +64 Zn system shows that the most important channels contributing to enhancement fusion cross section are the states 2+1 and 3-1 of the target [Huiz 07] (CQUEL), and the state 3-1 of the projectile (FRESCO). The 17O+64Zn system shows that the quadrupole and octupole excited states of the target, 2+ 1 and 3-1 , are strongly coupled to the elastic channel but it was necessary to couple the one neutron transfer channel in order to describe our data. Similarly, the 18O +64 Zn system confirmed that those two states of the target are strongly coupled to the two neutron transfer channel, but it was necessary to include in the coupling matrix the one neutron transfer channel. We verify that all these channels in the 18O +64 Zn describe the data and they in uence strongly the shape of the barrier distributions. (AU)
