The role of compound nuclei and deep-inelastic scattering in complex fragment production at intermediate energies

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6031322
The dependence of complex fragment production on the asymmetry of the entrance channel has been investigated with the 18 A MeV /sup 139/La + /sup 12/C, /sup 27/Al, /sup 64/Ni reactions. Invariant cross section plots show a very simple pattern for the two lighter targets and a more complex one for the heavier /sup 64/Ni target. The observed complex fragments are shown to result from quasi-elastic/deep-inelastic reactions and from compound nuclei formed in complete/incomplete fusion processes. 9 refs., 10 figs.
