Competing reaction mechanisms for the 16,17,18O+10,11B and 19F+9Be systems
Abstract
Fusion, strongly damped, quasielastic and elastic scattering yields have been measured for the 16,17,18O+10,11B systems at 1 MeV<=E/A<=4 MeV and 19F+9Be at 56 MeV. The significant yields observed for the strongly energy-damped products are attributed to a fusion-fission process. This identification is supported by statistical model calculations based on the transition-state model of fission. The elastic scattering data present enhanced back-angle yields which can be understood in terms of a compound elastic process. These results help to further establish the reaction systematics in this mass region.
