[en] The topics of the symposium are sub- and near-barrier fusion, limitations to fusion, compound nucleus decay and spectroscopy, incomplete fusion processes, and fragmentation and liquid-gas phase transition. Separate abstracts were prepared for 54 papers in these proceedings

[en] We have studied the effects of the shape of the fusion potential on the fusion cross sections in heavy-ion reactions within the framework of the direct reaction theory of fusion. We have assumed a fusion potential with a smooth Fermi-type surface, treating the radius and diffuseness as parameters. It turns out that the fusion cross sections below the barrier are very sensitive to the diffuseness, for a given radius parameter. We also find that the diffuseness should be small in order to be consistent with the concept of a direct reaction and recently accumulated data for the spin distributions of the compound nucleus.

[en] We have used two different folding models for the construction of the real nuclear potential for very heavy systems in the region 1000 < Z¹Z² < 3000, and computed the corresponding s-wave barrier. A systematic description of the nuclear densities has been undertaken as a starting point for the foldings

[en] Investigations into different theoretical models are conducted for simultaneous description of excitation functions and spin distributions of heavy ion fusion

[en] The purpose of the paper to develop a formalism to treat rare events, especially when one applies the “active correlation” method to suppress background products in the heavy-ion induced complete fusion nuclear reactions. This formalism is in fact an extension of classical BSC formalism for the case of time multi intervals.

[en] This study aimed to examine the critical thinking skills of pre-service physics teacher in the case of fission and fusion reactions. This research used quantitative descriptive method involving 22 final-year pre-service physics teacher in one of Institute of Teachers Training in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan. The instrument used in this study was a critical thinking skill test with essay question types based on five indicators of critical thinking skill by Ennis. The results showed that the critical thinking skills of pre-service physics teacher students on the five indicators were categorized as very low. An improvement is needed in lecturing activities to improve students’ critical thinking skills by using experimental activities through a digital environment. (paper)
