At and above the barrier the computed cross sections match well with the experimental data, whereas below the barrier, calculations with nuclear surface tension coefficient improved by Reisdorf in the proximity potential with considerations to shape degrees of freedom give an approximate fit. Reduced reaction cross sections for the systems 32 S on 90,96 Zr have also been described. %K Heavy-ion reactions %K Sub-barrier fusion %K Barrier penetration model. %U http://dspace.chitkara.edu.in/jspui/bitstream/1/825/1/42029_JNP_Santosh.pdf
