This article analyzes the validity of static Woods–Saxon potential and the energy-dependent Woods–Saxon potential (EDWSP) to explore the specific features of fusion dynamics of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] systems. The intrinsic degrees of freedom, such as inelastic surface excitations, play a crucial role in the enhancement of sub-barrier fusion excitation functions over the expectations of the one-dimensional barrier penetration model. Role of dominant intrinsic degrees of freedom of collision partners are entertained within the context of coupled channel calculations. Furthermore, the one-dimensional Wong formula using static Woods–Saxon potential fails miserably to describe the fusion enhancement of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] systems. However, the Wong formula along with the EDWSP model accurately explains the observed fusion enhancement of [Formula: see text] reactions. In the fusion of [Formula: see text] reaction, the above-barrier fusion data are suppressed by a factor of 0.66 with reference to the EDWSP model calculations while the below-barrier fusion data are adequately addressed by the EDWSP model and the coupled channel calculations. Therefore, the coupled channel calculations and the EDWSP model calculations reasonably describe the observed fusion mechanism of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions. This suggests that the energy dependence in the Woods–Saxon potential model introduces similar kinds of barrier modification effects (barrier height, barrier position, and barrier curvature) as reflected from the coupled channel calculations. In the EDWSP model calculations, significantly larger values of diffuseness ranging from a = 0.86 to 0.94 fm, which is much larger than a value extracted from the elastic scattering analysis, are needed to address the sub-barrier fusion data.

This work examined the fusion dynamics of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions within the framework of the static Woods–Saxon potential model, the energy dependent Woods–Saxon potential (EDWSP) model and coupled channel formulation. The effects of inelastic surface excitations, static deformation of colliding pairs and /or neutron transfer channels on fusion process are investigated through the coupled channel method. The calculations based upon static Woods–Saxon potential in conjunction with one-dimensional Wong formula strongly under predict the fusion data of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions at sub-barrier energies. However, such discrepancies are removed if one uses couplings to nuclear structure degrees of freedom of reacting nuclei. The coupled channel calculations obtained by considering the vibrational nature of the colliding nuclei fairly reproduce the fusion data of [Formula: see text] reactions. For this reaction, the neutron transfer channels, which are expected to influence strongly the fusion yields at below barrier energies, in reality contribute very weakly to fusion process. While in case of [Formula: see text] reaction, the consideration of vibrational couplings as well as the rotational couplings for target provides a reasonable explanation to the fusion cross-section data at near and above barrier energies. In distinction, the energy dependence in the nucleus–nucleus potential causes barrier modulation effects and subsequently modifies the barrier profile of the interaction barrier in such a way that the effective fusion barrier between the colliding pair reduces. This ultimately brings larger fusion cross-sections over the outcomes of one-dimensional barrier penetration model and the EDWSP model based calculations appreciably explained the fusion dynamics of chosen reaction at energy spanning around the Coulomb barrier. Both models (EDWSP and coupled channel model) lead to barrier lowering effects and modeled quantum tunneling in different way, henceforth, adequately explore the fusion dynamics of the studied reactions in near and above barrier energy regions.

This work systematically analyzed the fusion dynamics of the projectile-target combinations involving stable and loosely bound systems within the view of the energy-dependent Woods–Saxon potential model (EDWSP model) and the coupled channel approach. The different projectiles are bombarded onto series of Sm-isotopes, which possess the dominance of the different kinds of the nuclear structure degrees of freedom and with the increase of the neutron richness, the Sm-isotopes gradually shift from spherical shape to a statically deformed shape. In the fusion of [Formula: see text] reaction, the impacts of vibrational degrees of freedom of the colliding nuclei are dominant while in the case of [Formula: see text] systems, the rotational states of the deformed target isotopes have a strong impression on the below-barrier fusion data. The heavier target isotopes ([Formula: see text] also exhibit the higher order deformation such as [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]-deformation parameter in its ground state and couplings to such channels must be incorporated in theoretical calculations in order to achieve close agreement with the sub-barrier fusion data. However, in the case of the loosely bound systems, the projectile breakup channel significantly affects the fusion excitation functions in the domain of the Coulomb barrier. To ensure the role of the projectile breakup channel, the fusion of the different loosely bound projectiles ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with Sm-isotopes are investigated, wherein the above-barrier fusion data of these reactions are suppressed with reference to the coupled channel calculations. This hindrance is the result of the projectile breakup effects that occur as a consequence of the breakup of the projectile before reaching the fusion barrier due to its low binding energy. However, in the EDWSP model calculations the magnitude of the hindrance of the above-barrier fusion data of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions is reduced by a factor varying from 7% to 13% with respect to a value reported in the literature. In contrast to this, the sub-barrier fusion enhancement of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions is the result of the dominance of the nuclear structure degrees of freedom of the colliding systems.

This paper is mainly focused on the limitations of energy independent Woods–Saxon potential and the applicability of energy dependent Woods–Saxon potential (EDWSP) model in conjunction with one-dimensional Wong formula for description of the heavy-ion fusion reactions. The effects of neutron transfer channels and inelastic surface vibrations of colliding nuclei in the enhancement of sub-barrier fusion excitation function data, in the various heavy-ion fusion reactions, have been investigated within the framework of energy independent one-dimensional barrier penetration model, the EDWSP model and the coupled channel code CCFULL. In certain projectile-target combinations, the influences of multi-neutrons transfer between reactants are found to be dominating over the coupling to low lying surface vibrational states. Furthermore, the effects of these dominant degrees of freedom can be simulated by introducing the energy dependence in real part of nucleus–nucleus potential.

Adiabatic large polarons in anisotropic molecular crystals We study the large polaron whose motion is confined to a single chain in a system composed of the collection of parallel molecular chains embedded in threedimensional lattice. It is found that the interchain coupling has a significant impact on the large polaron characteristics. In particular, its radius is quite larger while its effective mass is considerably lighter than that estimated within the one-dimensional models. We believe that our findings should be taken into account for the proper understanding of the possible role of large polarons in the charge and energy transfer in quasi-one-dimensional substances.

Hijrah is a changing the one self of a person, from a bad to be a better person. This study aims to examine the role of religiosity on emotional regulation in the hijrah community.The subject in this research are the ikhwan and akhwat in hijrah community “X” with the total of 100 respondents. The measuring instrument used in this study is the religiosity scale and emotional regulation scale. This study used quantitative methods and for the sampling the researcher used incidental sampling techniques.The method used for the data analysis is a simple regression analysis and an additional age and gender analysis using the cross tabulation analysis (crosstab) with the help of SPSS 21.0. The results of data analysis showed a regression coefficient of 0.379 with a value of p = 0,000 (p <0.01), indicating that the hypothesis proposed in this study was accepted, that there was a significant positive role between religiosity towards emotional regulation in ikhwan and akhwat in the hijrah community. The result of the additional analysis using crosstab shows that the most dominant age of the subject are between 20 to 25 years old and the most dominant gender is akhwat. Effective contribution of religiosity towards emotional regulation is 0,144 or 14,4% and the rest is 85.6% influenced by others factors that is gender, age, culture and education.

Advances in theoretical modeling of rapidly expanding atmospheres in the past few years made it possible to determine the stellar parameters of the Wolf-Rayet stars. This progress is mainly due to the improvement of the models with respect to their spatial extension: The new generation of models treat spherically-symmetric expanding atmospheres, i.e. the models are one-dimensional. Older models describe the wind by only one representative point. The older models are in fact ‘core-halo’ approximations. They have been introduced by Castor and van Blerkom (1970), and were extensively employed in the past (cf. e.g. Willis and Wilson, 1978; Smith and Willis, 1982). First results from new one-dimensional model calculations are published by Hillier (1984), Schmutz (1984), Hamann (1985), Hillier (1986), and Schmutz et al. (1987a); more detailed results are presented by Schmutz and Hamann (1986), Hamann and Schmutz (1987), Hillier (1987a,b), Wessolowski et al. (1987), Hillier (1987c) and Hamann et al. (1987). These results demonstrate that the step from zero- to one-dimensional calculations is essential. The important point is that the complicated interrelation between NLTE-level populations and radiation field is treated adequately (Schmutz and Hamann, 1986; Hillier, 1987). For this interrelation it is crucial to model consistently not only the line-formation region, but also the layers where the continuum is emitted. In fact, it is the core-halo approximation that causes the one-point models to fail in certain aspects.

The geoid and its horizontal derivatives, the deflections of the vertical, play an important role in the adjustment of geodetic networks. In the one-dimensional (1D) case, represented typically by networks of orthometric heights, the geoid provides the reference surface for the measurements. In the two-dimensional (2D) adjustment of horizontal control networks, the geoidal undulations N and deflections of the vertical ξ, η are needed for the reduction of the measured quantities onto the reference ellipsoid. In the three-dimensional (3D) adjustment, N and ξ, η are basically required to relate geodetic and astronomic quantities. The paper presents the major gravimetric methods currently used for predicting ξ, η and N, and briefly intercompares them in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and data required. The effects of N, ξ, η on various quantities used in the ID, 2D, and 3D network adjustments are described explicitly for each case and formulas are given for the errors introduced by either neglecting or using erroneous N, ξ, η in the computational procedures.
