In this Report we give a balanced account of the experimental and theoretical advances
acquired over the last decade in the field of near-barrier fusion reactions induced by weakly …

In this review the main advances in heavy-ion fusion research that have taken place over the
last decade are addressed. During this period, experimental studies have been extended to …

Low-energy heavy-ion fusion reactions are governed by quantum tunneling through the
Coulomb barrier formed by the strong cancellation of the repulsive Coulomb force with the …

Microscopic methods and tools to describe nuclear dynamics have considerably been
improved in the past few years. They are based on the time-dependent Hartree–Fock …

In this review the phenomenon of heavy-ion fusion at low energies is discussed in detail,
with special emphasis given to the fusion of loosely bound stable and unstable projectiles …

A summary of recent researches on nuclear dynamics with realistic microscopic quantum
approaches is presented. The Balian-Vénéroni variational principle is used to derive the …

The study of fusion reactions at extreme sub-barrier energies has seen an increased interest
in recent years, although difficult to measure due to their very small cross sections. Such …

A search for production of the superheavy elements with atomic numbers 119 and 120 was
performed in the Ti 50+ Bk 249 and Ti 50+ Cf 249 fusion-evaporation reactions, respectively …

Comprehensive high precision complete and incomplete fusion cross sections have been
measured for the Li 6+ Bi 209, Li 7+ Bi 209, and Be 9+ Pb 208 reactions, at energies near …

Background: Multinucleon transfer in low-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions is proposed as
a method of production of yet-unknown neutron-rich nuclei hardly reachable by other …
