Abstract

We have developed an application for studying heavy ion fusion barrier characteristics such as such as fusion barrier heights ($V_B$), positions ($R_B$) and curvature of the inverted parabola ($\hbar\omega$). We call this application as KHIFC (Kolar Heavy Ion fusion barrier Characteristics). This software application hosted in the domain "https://systematics-of-heavy-ion-fusion.vercel.app/". This KHIFC produces fusion cross-sections with the simple input of projectile, target and center of mass energy. The values produced by the KHIFC is validated with experiments. Efficient tools like KHIFC are essential for researchers in nuclear physics, particularly when dealing with complex systems such as actinide and superheavy nuclei. By providing quick calculations and insights, it can significantly aid in experiment planning and theoretical investigations.
