    Global macroscopic features observed in the fully-damped binary processes in light di-nuclear systems, such as limiting angular momenta, mean total kinetic energies and energy thresholds for fusion-fission processes (''fission thresholds") are presented. Their deduced systematics are consistent with that obtained for heavier systems and follow a fusion-fission picture which can be described by a realistic rotating liquid drop model considering diffuse-surface and finite-nuclear-range effects.

    Abstract This textbook was written because the authors failed to find a comprehensive text for a course on non-relativistic nuclear reactions. The book combines a thorough theoretical approach with applications to recent experimental results. The main formalisms used to describe nuclear reactions are explained clearly and coherently, and the reader is led from basic laws to the final formulae used to calculate measurable quantities. Topics treated include quantal and semi-classical potential scattering, the formal theory of nuclear reactions, including the theory of the optical model, and direct reactions and coupled-channel systems. Also included are compound nucleus reactions and fusion, dissipation fluctuations in deep-inelastic collisions, fusion, and heavy-ion induced fission. The book will be welcomed by lecturers, graduate students, and researchers in nuclear and atomic physics.

    A model for the calculation of the cross section for complete fusion in heavy ion reactions is suggested. The model does not explicitly depend on the sharp cutoff approximation. On the contrary, it allows for a gradual transition between compound and direct process when the bombarding energy is sufficiently high above the Coulomb barrier. The energy below which the reaction cross section is exhausted by compound processes is also estimated. Comparison with experimental results supports the validity of the model.NUCLEAR REACTIONS Phenomenological model for complete fusion cross section in heavy ion reactions.

    This review begins with classifying nuclear reactions in three elements: binary processes, few-particle processes, and many-particle processes, and thereby elucidates the special features for the nuclear fusion in dense plasmas. These analyses are then applied to estimation of the nuclear reaction rates in specific examples of the dense plasmas, namely, 12C-12C reactions in a white-dwarf progenitor of supernova, p-p reactions in the solar interior, d-d reactions in palladium hydride, and p-d or p-7Li reactions in pressurized liquid metals. The special role that the many-particle processes play in dense plasmas is remarked and the similarilty between nuclear reactions in supernovae and those projected in the ultrahigh-pressure liquid metals is particularly emphasized.
