C. Birattari et al., PREEQUILIBRIUM PROCESSES IN THE FUSION OF C-12 WITH RH-103 UP TO 20 MEV NUCLEON/, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 54(6), 1996, pp. 3051-3055
We have measured the excitation functions of several reactions occurri
ng in the fusion of C-12 with Rh-103 at incident energies up to about
230 MeV. The data can be satisfactorily reproduced by considering the
preequilibrium emission of particles during the thermalization of the
composite nucleus. The energy evolution of the mean-field interaction
is also discussed.
