Abstract
Nuclear reaction mechanisms for systems characterized by very differen t asymmetries (U + C, Si, Ni, Au) have been investigated at 24.3 MeV/n ucleon, using as observables both the fission products and the neutron multiplicity. It is clearly observed that the fusion process - whatev er its completeness - can only occur with rather light target nuclei, indicating the persistence of potential energy effects much above the interaction barrier.
