Abstract

The fusion of O16 + Ca40 has been studied in small energy steps in the energy range 45Elab63 MeV. Fusion cross sections were measured by the detection of evaporation residues in a E-E particle telescope and by measurement of prompt -ray activity. The fusion excitation functions show relatively smooth behavior with no evidence for oscillatory structure of the magnitude observed in the fusion of O16 + C12. NUCLEAR REACTIONS O16+Ca40, Elab=45-63 MeV; measured fusion.
