Abstract

The inclusive cross sections of the α\alpha-particles produced in the reaction 6^{6}Li+159^{159}Tb have been measured at energies around the Coulomb barrier. The measured cross sections are found to be orders of magnitude larger than the calculated cross sections of 6^{6}Li breaking into α\alpha and dd fragments, thus indicating contributions from other processes. The experimental cross sections of 1n1n-stripping and 1n1n-pickup processes have been determined from an entirely different measurement, reported earlier. Apart from incomplete fusion and/ dd-transfer processes, the 1n1n-stripping process is found to be a significant contributor to the inclusive α\alpha-particle cross sections in this reaction.
