In this Report we give a balanced account of the experimental and theoretical advances
acquired over the last decade in the field of near-barrier fusion reactions induced by weakly …

In this review the main advances in heavy-ion fusion research that have taken place over the
last decade are addressed. During this period, experimental studies have been extended to …

The present status of fusion reactions involving light (A< 20) radioactive projectiles at
energies around the Coulomb barrier (E< 10 MeV per nucleon) is reviewed, emphasizing …

The phenomenon of incomplete fusion (ICF) using both the strongly and weakly bound
projectiles below an incident energy of≈ 10 MeV per nucleon is reviewed. Various reaction …

Fusion excitation functions have been measured for the first time with rather good accuracy
for S 32+ Zr 90 and S 32+ Zr 96 near and below the Coulomb barrier. The sub-barrier cross …

In this review paper we present a detailed account of the extraction and the calculation of the
total reaction cross section of strongly bound and weakly bound, stable and unstable, exotic …

By using 14 different versions and parametrizations of a proximity potential and two new
versions of the potential proposed in this paper, we perform a comparative study of fusion …

The roles of nuclear deformation and neutron transfer in sub-barrier capture process are
studied within the quantum diffusion approach. The change of the deformations of colliding …

The elastic scattering of the weakly bound radioactive nuclei B 8 and Be 7 from a Pb 208
target was measured for the first time in the energy range around the Coulomb barrier. The …

A large number of complete fusion excitation functions of reactions including the breakup
channel were measured in recent decades, especially in the last few years. It allows us to …
