Cluster transfer in the reaction 16 O + 208 Pb at energies well below the fusion barrier: A possible doorway to energy dissipation

Abstract

The reaction 16O + 208Pb is a benchmark in nuclear reaction studies as it involves two doubly magic nuclei. New measurements of back-scattered projectile-like fragments at sub-barrier energies show that the probability of two-proton (2p) transfer is much Show more
