The charge, velocity, and angular distributions of three coincident fragments measured for the system [sup 40]Ar on [sup 232]Th at an incident energy of 31 MeV/nucleon evidence a deep inleastic collision process followed by fission. The estimated total kinetic energy loss is about 600--800 MeV which represents roughly 60--80% damping of the initial kinetic energy.
