Abstract The fusion excitation functions for the fusion of 32S on 90,96Zr have
been calculated larger value, while using one-dimensional barrier penetration
model, taking scattering potential as the sum of Coulomb and proximity
potential and the calculated values are compared with experimental data with
considerations to shape degrees of freedom. At and above the barrier the
computed cross sections match well with the experimental data, whereas below
the barrier, calculations with nuclear surface tension coefficient improved
by Reisdorf in the proximity potential with considerations to shape degrees
of freedom give an approximate fit. Reduced reaction cross sections for the
systems 32S on 90,96Zr have also been described.
