Abstract

Abstract Fusion cross sections of the 28Si + 100Mo system have been measured near and below the Coulomb barrier by detecting the evaporation residues at forward angles. The excitation function has an overall smoother trend than what obtained in a previous experiment, and a large discrepancy is found for the lowest-energy region, where we observe a tendency of the S factor to develop a maximum, which would be a clear indication of hindrance. The results have been compared with the theoretical prediction of coupled-channels calculations using a Woods–Saxon nuclear potential, and including the low-energy excitation modes of both nuclei. Good agreement with data is found by including, in the coupling scheme, the three lowest members of the ground state rotational band of the oblate deformed 28Si, and two-phonons of the strong quadrupole vibration of 100Mo. The additional coupling, in a schematic way, of the two-neutron pick-up between ground states (Q-value = +4.86 MeV) has a minor effect on calculated cross sections, and does not essentially improve the data fit. The excitation function of 28Si + 100Mo has been compared with that of (1) the heavier system 60Ni + 100Mo having analogous features, and (2) several near-by 28Si, 32S + Zr, Mo systems with various nuclear structures and transfer Q-values. The role of quadrupole and octupole excitation modes, as well as of transfer channels, in affecting the fusion dynamics, are clarified to some extent. Systematic measurements of fusion barrier distributions and CC calculations properly including transfer couplings, are necessary, in order to shed full light on the influence of the various coupled channels on the fusion cross sections.
