Description
In collisions of light, stable, weakly bound nuclides, complete fusion (capture of all of the projectile charge) has been found to be suppressed by ∼30% at above-barrier energies. This is thought to be related to their low thresholds for breakup into charged clusters. The observation of fusion suppression in the neutron-rich radioactive nucleus Li8 is therefore puzzling: the lowest breakup threshold yields Li7+n which cannot contribute to fusion suppression because Li7 retains all the...[Show more]
