Neutron dynamics in the fusion of neutron-rich O ions with C
A. Leon, H. Desilets, Rohit Kumar +18
The fusion excitation function for O + C was measured for the first time and compared to the fusion of less neutron-rich isotopes. The impact of valence neutrons in t…
Observation of oscillations and near-barrier suppression in the fusion of O + p
H. Desilets, Rohit Kumar, R. T. deSouza +8
Using an active target detector, the fusion excitation function for O + H was measured for the first time. Near the barrier, the fusion cross section manifests an oscill…
Resonant suppression of the above-barrier fusion cross-section in O + C
H. Desilets, Rohit Kumar, R. T. deSouza +8
Fusion excitation functions for O and F + C were simultaneously measured along with O + C using the active-target detector MuSIC@Indiana. Examina…
Deconstructing the emission order of protons, neutrons and -particles following fusion in Si + Si
Rohit Kumar, H. Desilets, J. E. Johnstone +12
A high-quality measurement of proton and -particle emission associated with fusion of Si with a Si target is described. Evaporation residues produced by de-e…
