Shell effects on the drift and fluctuation in multinucleon transfer reactions

Abstract

This study employs the dinuclear system model (DNS-sysu) to investigate drift and fluctuation mechanisms in 136Xe + 209Bi collisions above the Coulomb barrier. The DNS-sysu model demonstrated its effectiveness in providing reasonable descriptions of drift and fluctuation dynamics for the multinucleon transfer reaction at low energies. We observe temperature-induced changes in the shell effect, impacting nucleon transfer. At higher energies, the weakening constraint of the potential energy surface leads to a reversal in the evolution direction. Additionally, the consideration of shell corrections notably affects fragment distribution at low energies but diminishes for high-energy conditions. This research provides valuable insights into understanding the macroscopic manifestation of nucleon transfer in the multinucleon transfer reaction.
