A 4{pi} measurement of charged products and neutrons from the reaction {sup 86}Kr + {sup 197}Au at E/A=35 MeV

A measurement of the {sup 86}Kr+{sup 197}Au reaction products was performed at E/A=35 MeV. Neutron multiplicity m{sub n} and charged particle multiplicity M{sub c} were determined with the Rochester SuperBall and with the Washington University MicroBall, respectively. Projectile-like fragments (PLF) and slow reaction products were measured with two Si telescopes and three Si strip detectors, respectively. MicroBall, PLF and strip detectors were enclosed within the SuperBall to select the reaction events according to M{sub n} and M{sub c}. M{sub n} and M{sub c} show different sensitivities to the dissipated energy E{sub dis} and, hence, the impact parameter of the reaction. M{sub c} was close to zero for M{sub n} up to about M{sub n}=20. Therefore, M{sub n} is suited to select reaction events according to E{sub dis} over the entire range of E{sub dis}, whereas M{sub c} can be utilized for this purpose only above certain minimum E{sub dis}. Charged-product emission patterns are discussed for different energy dissipation.
