Complex fragment emission in binary and multifragment decay of very hot nuclear systems

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6589564
Low-energy compound nucleus emission of complex fragments in the reaction {sup 63}Cu + {sup 12}C is used to infer the associated ridge-line potential. Compound binary emission of complex fragments at higher energies is illustrated for a variety of reactions. Complex fragment emission from 35 and 40 MeV/N {sup 139}La + {sup 12}C, {sup 27}Al, {sup 40}Ca and {sup 51}V reactions has been studied. Multifragment events from these reactions were assigned to sources characterized by their energy and mass through the incomplete-fusion-model kinematics. Excitation functions for the various multifragment channels appear to be nearly independent of the system and bombarding energy. Preliminary comparisons of the data with sequential-statistical-decay calculations are discussed.
