Evidence of complete fusion in the sub-barrier 16O+238U reaction.
Evaporation residue cross sections in the 16O+238U reaction were measured for the energy range from above- to extreme sub-barrier. The cross sections are reproduced by a statistical model calculation, for which partial cross sections are calculated by a coupled-channel model taking into account the prolate deformation of 238U. Complete fusion was observed in the collision of the projectile with the tips of the 238U target, in the same way as the side collision.
