Nucleon exchange and heat partition in damped collisions

Mass and charge distributions have been measured for damped projectile-like fragments in the reaction /sup 74/Ge+/sup 165/Ho at 8.5 MeV per nucleon bombarding energy. Coincidences were measured between angle-correlated reaction partners in order to derive the primary mass distribution and the excitation energy distribution for projectile-like fragments. The evolution of the primary N and Z distributions as a function of energy loss is found to deviate significantly from predictions of the nucleon exchange transport model. The fraction of excitation energy residing in the projectile-like fragment is shown to depend both upon energy loss and the direction of the nucleon flow.
