Collaborators: BhushanBhujang(Ph. D. student, IIT Bombay, India), R. P. Singh (Inter University Accelerator Center, New Delhi, India) R. Tripathi(Bhabha Atomic Research Center, Mumbai, India), B. S. Tomar(Bhabha Atomic Research Center, Mumbai, India).
Plan of the talk 1) Introduction 2) Experiment: Measurement of cross-section 3) Theoretical analysis Sum rule Model (Modification needed) 4) Summary
Introduction Importance of Incomplete fusion reaction (ICF): • Reaction Mechanism (theoretical): Sum rule model Works well at the beam energy 10 MeV/Nucleon Fails in the beam energy range of 5-7 MeV/Nucleon! • Scope to produce high angular momentum states (experimental) Nuclei close to -stability line
Our workCross-section Measurement (Off-line) Experiment (irradiation): Pelletron Accelerator Facility at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, INDIA • Irradiation on 122Sn, 124Sn target foils Self-supporting target 2 mg/cm2 • 10B, 11B beams of energy = 5-7 MeV/Nucleon • Off-line singles data collection: Coaxial HPGe detector • Absolute efficiency determination: Radioactive source 152Eu • Determination of cross-section: Intensity of-ray

Sum Rule ModelK. Siwek-Wilczyńska et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 42, 1599 (1979)J. Wilczyńskiet al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 45, 606 (1980) Same approach for the Complete fusion (CF) and Incomplete fusion (ICF) reactions • Concept of generalized angular momentum Successive “ℓ-windows” with overlaps • Higher average value of ℓ for the higher mass of the emitted projectile like fragment (PLF) Examples of PLF: 4He, 7Li, 8Be . . . . • Complete capture of the projectile (CF) No emission of PLF • Probability for the ith reaction channel (partially equilibrated system) ; : Ground state Q- value

Choice of Parameters OSRM T = 3 MeV qc = 0.08 fm-1 T = 3 MeV qc = 0.06 fm-1 ℓ = 2 ħ MSRM ℓmax = 10% increment in the value in OSRM b = 0.3 (C1+C2) K = 60 MeV ℓmax→ prescription as given in D. Glass et al., Nucl. Phys. A 237, 429 (1975) ℓ = 1 ħ
Probability distribution of 11B + 122Sn reaction Elab (ℓmax) (MeV) T = 3 MeV qc = 0.08 fm-1 ℓ = 1 ħ (2ℓ+1) 7Li 9Be ℓ
Experiment vs. SRM for 11B + 122Sn (CFexp) = (129Cs) + (128Cs) + (127Cs) (exp) = (128I) + (126I) + (124I) + (123I)
Summary • Cross-section measurement for the reactions 10, 11B + 122, 124Sn at the beam energy 5-7 MeV/nucleon • Theoretical analysis: Based on Sum rule model Original Sum rule model underestimated the cross-section for -channel Modified Sum rule model Cross-section near to the experimental value added the centrifugal barrier term in ℓcrit increased the value of ℓmaxby 10 % (preliminary theoretical analysis) In future, check validity of Modified Sum rule model for other reactions as well.
