Abstract

Exact quantum-mechanical coupled-channels and classical-limit calculations are compared for the case of a very-heavy-ion reaction exciting strongly collective states via Coulomb and complex nuclear potentials. The calculations are in excellent agreement for transitions which are likely to be experimentally important and provide further support for the classical localization picture in very-heavy-ion collisions.
