Quasifission at extreme sub-barrier energies

With the quantum diffusion approach the behavior of the capture cross-section is investigated in the reactions $^{92,94}$Mo + $^{92,94}$Mo, $^{100}$Ru + $^{100}$Ru, $^{104}$Pd + $^{104}$Pd, and $^{78}$Kr + $^{112}$Sn at deep sub-barrier energies which are lower than the ground state energies of the compound nuclei. Because the capture cross section is the sum of the complete fusion and quasifission cross sections, and the complete fusion cross section is zero at these sub-barrier energies, one can study experimentally the unique quasifission process in these reactions after the capture.
