Abstract

Phase transition in highly excited nucleus is treated in terms of thermo-dynamics of microensembles. The emission of intermediate mass fragments from pure thermally excited heavy nucleus ¹⁹⁷Au is an indication of the liquid to fog phase transition. Evidence of the spinodal decomposition of the heavy nuclear system is found and its relation to the multisaddle transition configuration and freeze-out state is presented.

Characterization of the multifragment decay channel in highly excited nuclei. [Indiana Univ. , Bloomington, Indiana]

Technical Report de Souza, R T

Characteristics of multifragment decay in heavy-ion induced reactions at intermediate energies are explored. Evolution of the timescale for emission of intermediate mass fragments (IMF: 3[le]Z[le]20) is investigated. Fragments associated with central collisions in the reactions [sup 36]Ar + [sup 197]Au at E/A = 50, 80, and 110 MeV are emitted on an extremely fast timescale, [tau] [le] 75 fm/c, comparable to the transit time of the projectile past the target nucleus. With increasing incident energy, mean fragment emission times decrease, consistent with statistical decay from highly excited systems or fast dynamical processes. To examine the importance of expansion effects inmore »« less

Studies of heavy-ion reactions and transuranic nuclei

Technical Report Schroeder, W U ; Huizenga, J R

The development of the cold-fusion'' episode is reviewed. Ongoing studies of compound-nucleus formation and decay via the neutron multiplicity distribution confirm the validity of conventional statistical theory. The excitation energy partition in near-barrier damped {sup 58}Ni + {sup 208}Pb collisions is found to be largely independent of the direction of net mass transfer, supporting a diffusion-like nucleon-exchange mechanism. Exclusive experiments on the heavy reaction systems {sup 197}Au + {sup 208}Pb and {sup 209}Bi + {sup 136}Xe in the Fermi-energy domain have revealed important new insights into the reaction mechanism, which is found to be dominated by damped, binary processes.

Studies of heavy-ion reactions and transuranic nuclei. [Univ. of Rochester]

Technical Report Schroeder, W U

Developments around the fictitious phenomenon of cold'' deuterium fusion are summarized. Investigations of the decay of Dy composite systems formed in {sup 32}S-induced fusion reactions provide no evidence for entrance-channel memory effects. Experimental and theoretical studies of excitation energy division in dissipative reactions are reviewed. Exclusive measurements of neutrons, light charged particles and massive fragments conducted for the very-heavy-ion reactions {sup 209}Bi+{sup 136}Xe and {sup 197}Au+{sup 2}Pb at Fermi energies have yielded several new observations. They affirm the effectiveness of the associated- neutron multiplicity as an indicator of dissipated energy and impact parameter. In spite of the elevated incident energies,more »« less
