Nuclear fusion is the key to forming the world's most exotic
nuclei, nuclei which hold a key to understanding our universe. The
complex production and study of these exotic nuclei, which are not
naturally produced on the Earth, is underway at heavy ion
accelerators around the globe. This book is a study of two
mechanisms which inhibit nuclear fusion, namely breakup and
quasifission. The understanding of these processes is currently one
of the most intriguing and challenging problems in nuclear physics.
For light weakly bound nuclei, breakup is the process which
suppresses fusion at above-barrier energies, while at the other end
of the scale, in reactions of heavy nuclei, quasifission hinders
the formation of heavy and superheavy elements. Current quantum
mechanical reaction models are not able to provide a full
description of either of these processes. This book is addressed to
PhD scholars and nuclear scientists with the essential purpose of
providing a comprehensive insight into the complex dynamics of
breakup and quasifission.
