The results of our systematic study reveals that the extracted diffuseness parameter depend linearly on the N/Z ratio of the fusing nuclei. Further, we demonstrated that the extracted values of surface diffuseness parameter lies within the range a = 0.40 to 0.73 fm as compared to commonly accepted value form elastic scattering data i.e. 0.63 fm.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Nuclear Physics, Material Sciences, Radiation and Applications}, author={Mittal, Suman and Dutt, Ishwar}, year={2017}, month={Feb.}, pages={309–323} }
