摘要
Background: The presence of neutron transfer channels with positive Q values can enhance sub-barrier fusion cross sections. Recent measurements of the fusion excitation functions for Ni-58+Sn-132,Sn-124 found that the fusion enhancement due to the influence of neutron transfer is smaller than that in Ca-40+Sn-132,Sn-124 although the Q values for multineutron transfer are comparable. Purpose: To investigate the differences observed between the fusion of Sn + Ni and Sn + Ca. Methods: Fusion excitation functions for Ti-46,Ti-50+Sn-124 have been measured at energies near the Coulomb barrier. Results: A comparison of the barrier distributions for Ti-46+Sn-124 and Ca-40+Sn-124 shows that the Ca-40+Sn-124 system has a barrier strength resulting from the coupling to the very collective octupole state in Ca-40 at an energy significantly lower than the uncoupled barrier. Conclusions: The large sub-barrier fusion enhancement in Ca-40 induced reactions is attributed to both couplings to neutron transfer and inelastic excitation, with the octupole vibration of Ca-40 playing a major role.
