| Abstract: | The interaction potential between a spherical and a deformed nucleus is calculated within the double-folding model for deformed nuclei.We solve the double folding potential numerically by using the truncated multipole expansion method.The shape,separation and orientation dependence of the interaction potential,fusion cross section and barrier distribution of the system 16O+154Sm are investigated by considering the quadrupole and hexadecapole deformations of 154Sm.It is shown that the height and the position of the barrier depend strongly on the deformation and the orientation angles of the deformed nucleus.These are quite important quantities for heavy-ion fusion reactions,and hence produce great effects on the fusion cross section and barrier distribution. |
