Abstract

The measured yield of evaporation residues in reactions with massive nuclei have been well reproduced by using the partial fusion and quasifission cross sections obtained in the dinuclear-system model. The influence of the orientation angles of the projectile- and target-nucleus symmetry axes relative to the beam direction on the production of the evaporation residues is investigated for the 48Ca + 154Sm reaction as a function of the beam energy. At the low beam energies only the orientation angles close to αP = 30° (projectile) and αP = 0°-15° (target) can contribute to the formation of evaporation residues. At large beam energies (about Ec.m. = 140-180 MeV) the collisions at all values of orientation angles αP and αT of reactants can contribute to the evaporation residue cross section which ranges between 10-100 mb, while at Ec.m. > 185 MeV the evaporation residue cross section ranges between 0.1-1 mb because the fission barrier for the compound nucleus decreases by increasing its excitation energy and angular momentum.
