Fusion and competing processes in the S-32+C-12 reaction at E (S-32)=19.5 MeV/nucleon - art. no. 024610

Velocity, angular. mass, and charge distributions of isotopically resolved residues coming from the reaction S-32+ C-12 were measured at the bombardin g energy E(S-32) = 19.5 MeV/nucleon. Complete and incomplete fusion and dir ect components have been separated in the velocity spectra using kinematica l analysis and deconvolution techniques. For each residue, incomplete and c omplete fusion cross sections have been extracted and the results are compa red with the LILITA code predictions. The complete fusion cross section and the deduced critical angular momentum are also compared with other experim ental data and with the predictions of theoretical models.
