Multinucleon transfer mechanism in Cf 250 + Th 232 collisions using the quantal transport description based on the stochastic mean-field approach

Production cross sections of heavy neutron-rich isotopes are calculated by employing quantal transport description in 250 Cf + 232 Th collisions. This quantal transport description is based on the stochastic mean-field approach, and it provides a microscopic approach beyond time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory to include mean-field fluctuations. Deexcitation of primary fragments is determined by employing the statistical GEMINI++ code. Here, calculations provide predictions for production cross sections of neutron rich transfermium isotopes without any adjustable parameters.

Quantal diffusion description of isotope production via the multinucleon transfer mechanism in 48 Ca+ 238 U collisions

As an extension of previous work, we calculate the production cross section of heavy neutron-rich isotopes by employing the quantal diffusion description to 48 Ca+ 238 U collisions. The quantal diffusion is deduced from stochastic mean-field approach, and transport properties are determined in terms of time-dependent single-particle wave functions of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory. As a result, the approach allows for prediction of production cross sections without any adjustable parameters. Furthermore, the secondary cross sections by particle emission are calculated with the help of the statistical gemini++ code.

Merging of transport theory with the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approach: Multinucleon transfer in U + U collisions

Multinucleon transfer mechanism in the collision of 238 U + 238 U system is investigated at E c.m. = 833 MeV in the framework of the quantal diffusion description based on the stochastic mean-field approach. Double cross sections σ (N, Z ) as a function of the neutron and proton numbers, the cross sections σ (Z ) and σ (A) as a function of the atomic numbers and the mass numbers are calculated for production of the primary fragments. The calculation indicates the 238 U + 238 U system may be located at an unstable equilibrium state at the potential energy surface with a slightly negative curvature along the β stability line on the (N, Z ) plane. Here, this behavior may lead to rather large diffusion along the β stability direction.
