Abstract
Fusion excitation functions for 144Sm + O-16 and O-17 have been measur ed to high precision. The extracted fusion barrier distributions show a double-peaked structure which is interpreted in terns of coupling to inelastic excitations of the target. The effect of the neutron stripp ing channel is evident in the reaction with O-17. These barrier distri butions show clearly the signatures of specific inelastic and transfer channels.
