Physical Review C, 2016•APSBackground: We study heavy-ion reactions from barrier up to Fermi energy. The data were
acquired with the INDRA detector at the GANIL (Caen, France) facility. Purpose: We aim to
determine the reaction and fusion cross sections for the reactions induced by Xe 129
projectiles on Sn nat targets for incident energies ranging from 8 A to 35 A MeV. In particular,
the evaluation of the fusion and incomplete fusion cross sections is the main purpose,
altogether with the comparison with the systematics of Eudes et al.[Europhys. Lett. 104 …

Background: We study heavy-ion reactions from barrier up to Fermi energy. The data were acquired with the INDRA detector at the GANIL (Caen, France) facility.
Purpose: We aim to determine the reaction and fusion cross sections for the reactions induced by projectiles on targets for incident energies ranging from to MeV. In particular, the evaluation of the fusion and incomplete fusion cross sections is the main purpose, altogether with the comparison with the systematics of Eudes et al. [Europhys. Lett. 104, 22001 (2013)EULEEJ0295-507510.1209/0295-5075/104/22001].
Method: The reaction cross sections are evaluated at each beam energy with data acquired thanks to the INDRA array. The events are sorted with the help of the observable . We focus therefore our study on a selected sample of events, in such a way that the fusion and incomplete fusion cross sections can be estimated.
Results: We present the excitation function of reaction and fusion cross sections for the heavy and nearly symmetric system from to MeV. For the fusion excitation function the comparison with the systematics of Eudes et al. seems to be in a fair agreement starting from the beam energy MeV. For the lower beam energies ( and MeV) discrepancies are observed.
Conclusions: The evaluated fusionlike cross sections show a good agrement with a recent systematics for beam energies greater than MeV. For low beam energies the cross-sectional values are lower than the expected ones. A probable reason for these low values is in the fusion hindrance at energies above or close to the barrier.
