Abstract

A barrier-top-resonance model calculation is found adequate to describe the gross structure behavior thus far observed in 12C + 12C and16O + 16O inelastic scattering excitation functions.

    One possible explanation is that when two reacting nuclei first interact in the peripheral region, they begin to rotate about each other, and it is only after rotating by a finite angle that they make a transition into the final channel. This so-called orbiting phenomenon was extensively studied over many years by investigating mainly reactions with stable nuclei [1–10]. It is now well established that neutron-rich light nuclei have a larger extension of the matter density radius than stable nuclei.
