OSTI ID:5925810
In order to study the reaction mechanism, carbon and thorium targets were bombarded by 213 MeV/n /sup 40/Ar ions. Energy spectra were measured at 0 to 4/sup 0/. The /sup 34/S energy spectrum distribution widths can be related to the nuclear temperature giving a value of 9.6 + 1.1 MeV. The measured isotope production cross sections for the carbon target are also given. The yields of very neutron-rich nuclei resulting from the fragmentation of /sup 40/Ar at 205 MeV/n were also measured, and the projected spectra are discussed. 2 references. (JFP)
