Profectile residues have been studied in coincidence with fragments resulting from fission of the target residue for reactions induced by 315-MeV /sup 16/O ions on a /sup 238/U target. A kinematical analysis shows that the forward linear momentum transferred to the target nucleus is significantly smaller than that expected for simple transfer reactions, but larger than that expected for pure profectile fragmentation processes.
