Universal damping mechanism of quantum vibrations in deep sub-barrier fusion reactions

I demonstrate that the coordinate dependence of the coupling strengths of colliding nuclei is important for describing the deep sub-barrier fusion hindrance. To this end, I firstly show the performance of an extended coupled-channel model by phenomenologically introducing a damping factor in the cou...
