Double folding model calculation applied to fusion reactions

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.

Nucleon--nucleon interactions in the double folding model for fusion reactions

Nucleus--nucleus potentials are determined in the framework of double folding model for M3Y--Reid and M3Y--Paris effective nucleon--nucleon (NN) interactions. Both zero-range and finite-range exchange parts of NN interactions are considered in the folding procedure. In this paper the spherical projectile--spherical target system ¹⁶O+²⁰⁸Pb is selected for calculating the barrier energies, fusion cross sections and barrier distributions with the density-independent and density-dependent NN interactions on the basis of M3Y--Reid and M3Y--Paris NN interactions. The barrier energies become lower for Paris NN interactions in comparison with Reid NN interactions, and also for finite-range exchange part in comparison with zero-range exchange part. The density-dependent NN interactions give similar fusion cross sections and barrier distributions, and the density-independent NN interaction causes the barrier distribution moving to a higher position. However, the density-independent Reid NN interaction with zero-range exchange part gives the lowest fusion cross sections. We find that the calculated fusion cross sections and the barrier distributions are in agreement with the experimental data after renormalization of the nuclear potential due to coupled-channel effect.     

The effect of difference between neutron and proton density distributions on the nuclei fusion barrier in a double folding model

The basic parameters (height, radius, and curvature) of the atomic nuclei fusion barrier are compared for the cases where the proton and neutron density distributions are identical and where they are different. As the difference exceeds 11%, it must be taken into consideration, especially for neutron-deficient and neutron-rich nuclides.     

Fusion reactions around the barrier for Be+~(238)U

Fusion-evaporation cross sections of ~(238)U (~9Be,5n)~(242)Cm are measured over a wide energy range around the Coulomb barrier.These measured cross sections are compared with model calculations using two codes,namely HIVAP2 and KEWPIE2.HIVAP2 calculations overestimate the measured fusion-evaporation cross sections by a factor of approximately 3.In KEWPIE2 calculations,two approaches,namely the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin(WKB) approximation and the empirical barrier-distribution (EBD) method,are used for the capture probability;both of them properly describe the measured cross sections.Additionally,fusion cross sections of ~(7,9)Be+~(238)U measured in two experiments are applied to constrain model calculations further through three codes,i.e.,HIVAP2,KEWPIE2,and CCFULL.Parameters in these codes are also examined by comparison with measured fusion cross sections.All the comparisons indicate that the KEWPIE2 calculations using the WKB approximation agree well with the measured cross sections of both fusion reactions ~(7,9)Be+~(238)U and the fusion-evaporation reaction ~(238)U (~9Be,5n)~(242)Cm.Calculations using the fusion code CCFULL are also in good agreement with the measured fusion cross sections of ~(7,9)Be+~(238)U.     

Exploiting barrier distributions to investigate breakup effects in the fusion of 9Be+208Pb

The availability of precisely measured fusion excitation functions have allowed the determination of experimental fusion barrier distributions. This concept is utilised in ⁹Be+²⁰⁸Pb reaction, to reliably predict the expected complete fusion cross-sections. However, the measured cross-sections are found to be only 68% of those predicted. The large cross-sections observed for incomplete fusion products support the interpretation that this suppression of fusion is caused by ⁹Be breaking up into charged fragments before reaching the fusion barrier.     

Effect of diode size and series resistance on barrier height and ideality factor in nearly ideal Au/n type-GaAs micro Schottky contact diodes

Small high-quality Au/n type-GaAs Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) with low reverse leakage current are produced using lithography. Their effective barrier heights (BHs) and ideality factors from current-voltage (I-V) characteristics are measured by a Pico ampere meter and home-built I-V instrument. In spite of the identical preparation of the diodes there is a diode-to-diode variation in ideality factor and barrier height parameters. Measurement of topology of a surface of a thin metal film with atomic force microscope (AFM) shows that Au-n type-GaAS SD consists of a set of parallel-connected micro and nanocontacts diodes with sizes approximately in a range of 100-200 nm. Between barrier height and ideality factor there is an inversely proportional dependency. With the diameter of contact increasing from 5 μm up to 200 μm, the barrier height increases from 0.833 up to 0.933 eV and its ideality factor decreases from 1.11 down to 1.006. These dependencies show the reduction of the contribution of the peripheral current with the diameter of contact increasing. We find the effect of series resistance on barrier height and ideality factor.     

Neutron flow or collective degrees of freedom for near barrier heavy-ion fusion

Various models have been proposed in order to understand the near barrier heavy-ion fusion data. Amongst others the coupled channel approach of Dasso and Landowne and the neutron flow picture of Stelson are two of the mechanisms which describe well a large body of near barrier fusion data. From an analysis of¹⁶O induced fusion reaction around the barrier for various targets an attempt has been made to identify which out of the above two mechanisms is more appropriate to explain these data.     

Effects of the Ehrlich-Schwoebel potential barrier on the Wolf-Villain model simulations for thin film growth

Wolf-Villain (WV) model is a simple model used to study ideal molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth by using computer simulations. In this model, an adatom diffuses instantaneously within a finite diffusion length to maximize its coordination number. We study statistical properties of thin films grown by this model. The morphology of the WV model is found to be kinetically rough with a downhill particle diffusion current. In real MBE growth, however, there are additional factors such as the existence of a potential barrier that is known as the Ehrlich-Schwoebel (ES) barrier. The ES barrier is an additional barrier for an adatom that diffuses over a step edge from the upper to a lower terrace which is known to induce an uphill particle current. We found that with the addition of the ES barrier, the WV-ES model morphology is rough with mound formation on the surface when the barrier is strong enough. To confirm these results, the correlation function is also studied. We find no oscillation in the correlation function in the WV model. For the WV-ES model, the correlation function oscillates. These results confirm that a strong enough ES barrier can cause mound formation on the WV surface in our study.

Calculation of decay half-lives for superheavy elements using the double folding model

α decay half-lives of some new synthesized superheavy elements, possibly synthesized superheavy elements and decay products are calculated theoretically within the WKB approximation by using microscopic m-nucleus interaction potentials. These nuclear potentials between the α particle and daughter nuclei are obtained by using the double folding integral of the matter density distribution of the α particle and daughter nuclei with a density-dependent effective nucleon-nucleon interaction, in which the zero-range exchange term is supplemented. The calculated α decay half-lives are compared with those of the different models and experimental data. It is shown that the present calculation successfully provides the half-lives of the observed αdecays for some new superheavy elements and therefore gives reliable predictions for α decay of possibly synthesized superheavy elements in future experiments.

Characterization of the single nanosecond pulsed surface dielectric barrier plasma actuator: Geometric and electric effects

The influence of the electrode length and the voltage pulses on the discharge characteristics of the surface dielectric barrier discharge actuators were investigated numerically by using the plasma kinetic model. The governing equations including the coupled continuity plasma discharge equation, drift-diffusion equation, electron energy equation, Poisson's equation, and Navier–Stokes equation were solved in quiescent air at atmospheric pressure. The results show that the shorter pulse rising time results in higher discharge characteristics, more intense discharge, and bigger discharge region. Differently, the compared discharge characteristics for the electrodes with different lengths prove that the length of the powered and ground electrodes has little effect on the surface dielectric barrier discharge driven by nanosecond pulsed voltage.     

Fusion of infrared-visible images using improved multi-scale top-hat transform and suitable fusion rules

Integration of infrared and visible images is an active and important topic in image understanding and interpretation. In this paper, a new fusion method is proposed based on the improved multi-scale center-surround top-hat transform, which can effectively extract the feature information and detail information of source images. Firstly, the multi-scale bright (dark) feature regions of infrared and visible images are respectively extracted at different scale levels by the improved multi-scale center-surround top-hat transform. Secondly, the feature regions at the same scale in both images are combined by multi-judgment contrast fusion rule, and the final feature images are obtained by simply adding all scales of feature images together. Then, a base image is calculated by performing Gaussian fuzzy logic combination rule on two smoothed source images. Finally, the fusion image is obtained by importing the extracted bright and dark feature images into the base image with a suitable strategy. Both objective assessment and subjective vision of the experimental results indicate that the proposed method is superior to current popular MST-based methods and morphology-based methods in the field of infrared-visible images fusion.     

Effective spectral emissivity measurements of superalloys and YSZ thermal barrier coating at high temperatures using a 1.6μm single wavelength pyrometer

A method which employs an integrating sphere and a single-wavelength (1.6 μm) pyrometer for measuring the spectral effective emissivities of superalloys in the temperature range (=650–1050°C) is described. The spectral effective emissivities for five superalloys, namely, MARM-247, MARM-509, CMSX-4, Inconel-718, N-155 and two René-N6 samples coated with YSZ thermal barrier coating were measured. Correcting the pyrometer measurements for the variations in the object emissivity would reduce the uncertainty in the temperature measurements to <±1%.     

Sub and near barrier fusion of neutron rich heavy nuclei – studies with radioactive ion beams

The availability of accelerated fission fragments at HRIBF allows us to study fusion reactions where one of the reactants is a short-lived exotic nucleus. Most interesting in this respect are entrance channels involving neutron-rich target and projectile – where enhanced survival probability of the compound system may allow the synthesis of heavier system. Much depends though on the dynamic evolution of the captured nuclei into a compound nucleus and the ensuing competition between fission and evaporation residue decay modes. Our studies of fusion between heavy neutron-rich nuclei are aimed at acquiring data that will lead to the understanding and eventually the ability to predict the probabilities for these different processes.     

Effect of O-vacancy defects on the Schottky barrier heights in Ni/SiO2 and Ni/HfO2 interfaces

We perform first-principles density functional calculations to study the electronic structure of Ni/HfO₂ and Ni/SiO₂ interfaces and the effect of O-vacancy (V_O) defects on the Schottky barrier height and the effective work function. We generate two interface models in which Ni is placed on O-terminated HfO₂ (1 0 0) and α-quartz (1 0 0) surfaces. As the concentration of V_O defects at the interface increases, the p-type Schottky barrier height tends to increase in the Ni/HfO₂ interface, due to the reduction of interface dipoles, whereas it is less affected in the Ni/SiO₂ interface.     

Transfer, breakup, and fusion reactions of 6He with 209Bi near the Coulomb barrier

The fusion of ⁶He with a ²⁰⁹Bi target displays a large enhancement at energies near to and below the Coulomb barrier. Recently, a ⁴He group of remarkable intensity, which dominates the total reaction cross-section, has also been observed in the near-barrier interaction of the same system. It is argued that this transfer/breakup channel acts as a doorway state to fusion. Received: 1 May 2001 / Accepted: 4 December 2001
