Microscopic predictions for production of neutron rich nuclei in the reaction
K. Godbey, C. Simenel, A. S. Umar
Background: Production of neutron-rich nuclei is of vital importance to both understanding nuclear structure far from stability and to informing astrophysical models of the rapid n…
Influence of the tensor interaction on heavy-ion fusion cross sections
K. Godbey, Lu Guo, A. S. Umar
[Background] While the tensor interaction has been shown to significantly affect the nuclear structure of exotic nuclei, its influence on nuclear reactions has only recently been i…
Deformed shell effects in Ca+Bk quasifission fragments
K. Godbey, A. S. Umar, C. Simenel
Background: Quasifission is the main reaction channel hindering the formation of superheavy nuclei (SHN). Its understanding will help to optimize entrance channels for SHN studies.…
Absence of hindrance in microscopic C+C fusion study
K. Godbey, C. Simenel, A. S. Umar
Background: Studies of low-energy fusion of light nuclei are important in astrophysical modeling, with small variations in reaction rates having a large impact on nucleosynthesis y…
Equilibration dynamics and isospin effects in nuclear reactions
A. S. Umar, C. Simenel, K. Godbey
We discuss equilibration times and isospin effect for various quantities in low-energy heavy-ion reactions. These include equilibration of mass, isospin, and total kinetic energy (…
