Small suppression of the complete fusion of the 6Li + 96Zr system at near-barrier energies.

The measurements of complete fusion cross sections for 6Li + 96Zr have been performed at energies around the Coulomb barrier by the online y-ray method. The complete fusion cross sections at above-barrier energies were found to be suppressed by ~25%. A comparison of the systematics of complete fusion suppression with the existing data for 6Li+ heavy targets with the present results shows that the systematics of the suppression factor observed for 6Li-induced fusion in the heavy mass region may not be consistent in lighter target mass region.
