| omplete and incomplete fusion components from the nuclear reaction ;Theoretical predictions of observable features of fusion and incomplete fusion reactions are discussed, for inclusive and coincidence measurements.;The design, construction, and calibration of a new time of flight (TOF) heavy ion spectrometer for the detection of ERs from this reaction is discussed. Incorporation of a silicon surface-barrier E-;A model-independent method for extracting complete and incomplete momentum transfer components (CMT and ICMT) of the inclusive data, which are expected to correspond to complete and incomplete fusion (CF and ICF), is presented. A means of analysing coincidence data is discussed.;Results of the collection and analysis of both the inclusive and coincidence data are presented. From the inclusive data, the mass, velocity, and angular distributions of the ERs resulting from CMT processes were found in agreement with predictions for CF reactions. From the ERs resulting from ICMT processes, the velocity distributions were found to agree with a two-body projectile fragmentation model; net absorption of clusters of one, two, or three... |
