Abstract

En 中文
The estimation of the ground state deformation parameter studied at the large-angle quasi-elastic (QEL) scattering below and above Coulomb barrier energies with the coupled-channel analysis for the massive system is a recent trend of research in nuclear physics. In this work, the octupolar deformation parameter (beta 3T) for the target nucleus 208Pb and the quadrupolar deformation parameter (beta 2P) for the five projectile nuclei 48Ti, 54Cr, 56Fe, 64Ni and 70Zn have been evaluated. This evaluation is done using channel coupling of single and multi-phonon vibrational excitation between target and projectiles in the framework of Bayesian statistical parameter estimation using the probe barrier distribution of QEL scattering. It has been observed that such a heavy mass target-projectile combination contributes to the synthesis of superheavy elements (SHEs). Here, the heaviest nucleus (208Pb) is the target and it has a doubly magic number, which is exceptionally stable. The best reproduction of the experimental data with the simulation results is possible when the target excitation is maximum (three phonon), as it goes to much heavier projectiles except for the projectile 64Ni. This projectile also has a magic number, and it needs three phonon excitation coupled with a single phonon excitation of the target. This observation is undoubtedly interesting for extracting the deformation parameters of the ground state when the phenomenological results of QEL barrier distributions fairly agree with the experimental data. This study may direct future experiments where the synthesis of SHEs can be expected.
