Abstract

Partial-wave cross sections for fusion of

{}^{64}{Zr}

and

{}^{64}{Zr}

at energies of 5% and 7% above the Bass-model fusion barrier have been measured with the Darmstadt-Heidelberg Crystal Ball. The distribution for fusion with the more neutron-deficient target

{}^{92}{Zr}

exhausts the unitarity limit for lower angular momenta. In contrast, fusion with the slightly more neutron-rich target

{}^{96}{Zr}

yields a broad angular momentum distribution with cross sections well below unitarity even for small partial waves.
