Reaction valleys: mechanism of interaction of complex nuclei studied on the basis of the two-center shell model

R. K. Gupta

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The two-center shell model and its application to nuclear fission and heavy-ion collisions is briefly reviewed. Then, in the theory of fragmentation, the asymmetric two-center shell model is generalized by the introduction of two new dynamical collective coordinates of mass and charge asymmetry. The results are given of calculations of the mass and charge distributions of fission fragments, and a study is made of the mechanisms of formation of a compound nucleus, fusion-fission reactions, and quasifission in heavy-ion collisions.
