Multinucleon-transfer reactions between light-heavy ions

Abstract
Reactions O1618+Al27 and F19+Al27 are studied at about 5 MeV/nucleon. O16+Al27 reactions are studied also at lower energies. General features of energy spectra, the most probable Q values, which show a large energy dissipation, and, in particular, angular distributions of projectilelike products are found to be very similar to those of deep inelastic collisions of heavier systems at much higher energies. All the angular distributions in Q-value intervals of 5 MeV, d2σdΩdQ, exhibit forward-peaking features and are well fitted by a form Aexp(μθ)sinθ. Systematics of the variation of μ vs |Q| and the number of transferred nucleons, n, are discussed. A picture of the rotating dinucleus model is consistent with the present observations. Cross sections of isotope production have a simple relation with Qgg including a nonpairing effect of the residual targetlike nucleus.
