The fusion mechanism of reactions involving even-even 112-124Sn, doubly magic 132Sn, 208Pb as targets, and 64Ni as the projectile is explored within the relativistic mean field (RMF) formalism. The main aim of choosing these nuclei is to explore the correlation between the nuclear incompressibility and the fusion cross section. The nucleus-nucleus interaction potential is calculated by folding the axially deformed nuclear densities and the relativistic R3Y nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential obtained for the nonlinear NL3 & lowast;, hybrid, and NL1 parameter sets, which yield different values for various characteristics of nuclear matter at saturation. The fusion barrier characteristics obtained for different RMF parametrizations are further used to calculate the cross section within the -summed pound Wong model. We found a decrease in the barrier height and, consequently, an increase in the cross section with a decrease in the incompressibility for all sets of parameters considered. Furthermore, comparing the barrier heights obtained for NL3 & lowast; and the hybrid parameters, it is observed that the barrier height decreases with decreasing symmetric energy and incompressibility value. Moreover, a lower barrier height and, consequently, a higher cross section at below-barrier energies is observed for the NL1 parameter set, which gives a soft equation of state (EoS) having a lower value of nuclear matter incompressibility. The calculated cross section is satisfactorily consistent with the available experimental data for 64Ni +208Pb system. In contrast, the nuclear potentials obtained for NL3 & lowast; and hybrid parameter sets underestimate the cross section at below-barrier energies for 64Ni + 112-124,132Sn reactions. This discrepancy between the experimental data and the theoretical results for 64Ni + 112-124,132Sn reactions can be correlated with the soft behavior of the Sn isotopes. The compressible nature of Sn isotopes is inferred to lower the barrier height, which further leads to enhancement of the experimental fusion and/or capture cross section at below-barrier energies. Thus, the NL1 parameter set with a comparatively soft EoS is observed to be a better choice to describe the sub-barrier nuclear fusion dynamics of reactions involving the Sn isotopes. (AU) | |
