Microscopic studies of production cross sections in multinucleon transfer reaction $^{58}$Ni+$^{124}$Sn

Abstract: \item[Background] Multinucleon transfer reaction at low-energy collisions is considered to be a promising method for the production of new exotic nuclei, which are difficult to be produced by other methods. The theoretical studies are required to provide reliable predictions for the experiments and promote the understanding of the microscopic mechanism in multinucleon transfer reactions. \item[Purpose] We provide a predictive approach for production cross sections, and testify how and to what extent the microscopic approach works well in multinucleon transfer reaction. \item[Methods] We employ the approach TDHF+GEMINI, which combines the microscopic time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) with the state-of-art statistical model GEMINI++, to take into account both the multinucleon transfer dynamics and the secondary deexcitation process. The properties of primary products in multinucleon transfer process, such as transfer probabilities and primary cross sections, are extracted from TDHF dynamics by using the particle-number projection method. Production cross sections for secondary products are evaluated by using the statistical model GEMINI++. \item[Results] We investigate the influence of colliding energies and deformation orientations of target and projectile nuclei on multinucleon transfer dynamics in the reaction $^{58}$Ni+$^{124}$Sn...... \item[Conclusions] The microscopic approach TDHF+GEMINI reasonably reproduces the experimental data at energies close to the Coulomb barrier and well accounts for the multinucleon transfer mechanism. The present studies clearly reveal the applicability of TDHF+GEMINI method in multinucleon transfer reactions, which thus deserves as a promising tool to predict the properties of new reactions.
