Abstract

Radiochemical yield measurements were performed to study mass- and charge distributions in the reaction of76Ge ions with170Er in the c.m. energy range from 222 MeV through 272 MeV. The magnitude of the resulting cross-section for fusion-fission is significantly lower than expected and is explained within the framework of Swiatecki's Extra-Push model.
