Investigation of the fusion process for B10+Au197 at near-barrier energies

In a previous work, we presented data for the $^{10}\mathrm{B}+^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ system, corresponding to quasielastic and elastic scattering, $^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ inelastic excitation, and one neutron pickup transfer, measuring the angular distribution of scattered beam-like ejectiles at several energies around the Coulomb barrier. In this paper, we present data for the fusion process of the same system, at several energies around the Coulomb barrier, as well as new data for one neutron pickup and stripping transfer. In this case, we detected offline $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ rays stemming from the $\ensuremath{\beta}$-delayed decay chain of fusion-evaporation residues and heavy transfer products. As in our previous work, we analyzed this data set with coupled reaction channels calculations using the S\~ao Paulo potential. We show that the coupling to the one neutron transfer channel is quite important to describe the fusion data at the sub-barrier energy region. We also provide a comparison of the experimental fusion cross sections obtained for $^{10}\mathrm{B}+^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ with data for several other systems involving the same target nucleus.
