Synthesizing any elements in the eighth period using either cold or hot fusion reactions
remains a big challenge to date. The quasifission mechanism restricts complete fusion to an …

Background: The relevance of including channel coupling effects in the form of target
deformation and vibration in fusion reactions has been well established. Many reactions with …

Abstract Inter-University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) came into existence as Nuclear Science
Centre in 1984. A 15UD Pelletron accelerator was installed and it started delivering …

We propose second-chance survival probability (P sur2) as a new observable to constrain
the nuclear dissipation strength (β). Using the Langevin model, we calculate P sur2 as a …

Background: In the theoretical analysis of nuclear fission observables, dissipation strength is
often adjusted locally to reproduce the experimental data. The global trend of the dissipation …

Background: The coupled-channels model has been highly successful in interpreting
experimental subbarrier fusion. The statistical model framework has traditionally been used …

The dynamical cluster-decay model (DCM) is employed to analyse the decay of various
compound nuclei (CNs) having mass A CN≈ 200 such as 194 Hg∗, 197 Tl∗, 202 Pb∗ and …

Nuclear fission is hindered by dissipation. Using the stochastic Langevin model, we
calculate the drop of fission cross sections caused by friction with respect to its standard …

Background: The onset of a noncompound nuclear fission (NCNF) process such as
quasifission was already predicted for heavy symmetric systems with the charge product …

Ionization detectors [1] are widely used at Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC), New
Delhi for charged particle detection in fusion-fission studies [2, 3]. Multi wire proportional …
