Abstract

Unstable 10C nuclei are produced as quasi-projectiles in 12C+24Mg collisions at E/A = 53 and 95 MeV. The decay of their short-lived states is studied with the INDRA multidetector array via multi-particle correlation functions. The obtained results show that heavy-ion collisions can be used as a tool to access spectroscopic information of unbound states in exotic nuclei, such as their energies and the relative importance of different sequential decay widths., Comment: 8 figures, accepted for publication in Nuclear Physics A

The phenomenon is studied as a function of system size, bombarding energy, and impact parameter in a wide range of INDRA data. For very central collisions (b/b_max

Abstract

We study the anisotropy effects measured with INDRA at GSI in central collisions of Xe+Sn at 50 A.MeV and Au+Au at 60, 80, 100 A.MeV incident energy. The microcanonical multifragmentation model with non-spherical sources is used to simulate an incomplete shape relaxation of the multifragmenting system. This model is employed to interpret observed anisotropic distributions in the fragment size and mean kinetic energy. The data can be well reproduced if an expanding prolate source aligned along the beam direction is assumed. An either non-Hubblean or non-isotropic radial expansion is required to describe the fragment kinetic energies and their anisotropy. The qualitative similarity of the results for the studied reactions suggests that the concept of a longitudinally elongated freeze-out configuration is generally applicable for central collisions of heavy systems. The deformation decreases slightly with increasing beam energy., Comment: 35 pages, 19 figures, submitted to Nuclear Physics A

Abstract

The new detector CHIMERA, in its final 4π configuration, has been installed at Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS) in Catania in January 2003. Beams of different energies ranging from protons to Au ions were delivered by the Tandem and the Super Conducting Cyclotron for nuclear reaction studies, in agreement with the approval of the Scientific Advisory Committee of LNS. Recent experimental results confirm very low energy thresholds of the trigger (below 0.5 MeV/nucleon), ensured within a wide dynamical range. Good characteristics of identification of light charged particles and heavy fragments have been obtained by using three detection techniques: Δ E-E , Δ E -time of flight, and the Pulse-Shape discrimination method. We present results of recent analysis concerning the production of intermediate mass fragments (IMF) in semi-peripheral collisions. Our results combined with theoretical Boltzmann-Nordheim-Vlasov simulations clearly demonstrate the presence of very fast processes of IMF production in the overlapping region of the target and projectile nuclei during re-separation, i.e. in the time scale comparable with the collision time. Evidence for slower, sequential-like production of IMF's is also shown.

Abstract

Quasi-projectile events from peripheral 35 A.MeV Au+ Au collisions are compared to central Au + C, Au + Cu and Au + Au events in the same range of excitation energy in terms of critical partitions and critical exponents. All the different data sets coherently point to a value E*c=4.5 A.MeV for the apparent critical excitation energy. The critical exponents tau, sigma are compatible with the observation of a liquid-gas phase transition for these systems., Comment: 21 pages, 10 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.Rev.C on 6-may-2002

Abstract

We analyzed the $^{93}Nb$ on $^{nat}Mg$ reaction at 30 MeV/nucleon in the aim of disentangling binary sequential decay and multifragmentation decay close to the energy threshold, i.e. $\simeq 3$ MeV/nucleon. Using the backtracing technique applied to the statistical models GEMINI and SMM we reconstruct simulated charge, mass and excitation energy distributions and compare them to the experimental ones. We show that data are better described by SMM than by GEMINI in agreement with the fact that multifragmentation is responsible for fragment production at excitation energies around 3 MeV/nucleon., 16 pages, 12 figures, 5 tables Soumis \`a Nuclear Physics A

Abstract

Kinetic energy spectra and fragment velocity correlations, simulated by means of stochastic mean-field calculations, are successfully confronted with experimental data for single multifragmenting sources prepared at the same excitation energy per nucleon in 32 AMeV 129Xe+natSn and 36 AMeV 155Gd+natU central collisions. Relying thus on simulations, average freeze-out times of 200-240 fm/c are estimated The corresponding spatial distributions of fragments are more compact for the lighter system (~3-4V\_0 vs ~8V\_0)., 20 pages; 9 figures; To be published in Nuclear Physics A

Abstract

Bimodality has been observed on the asymmetry between the charges of the two heaviest products resulting from the decay of the QP released in peripheral Xe+Sn and Au+Au collisions from 60 to 100 MeV/u. Bimodality is observed for intermediate impact parameters for which the quasi-projectile is clearly identified. The two event families correspond to different excitation energies as it is expected in a first order phase transition picture. It seems that the relevant parameter which governs the phenomenon is the dissipated energy per nucleon. It is also shown that it is possible to correlate the bimodality signal with the negative heat capacity and the Delta scaling. All together, this set of data is coherent with a liquid-gas phase transition of finite pieces of nuclear matter.

Abstract

The nucleus-nucleus Lie`ge intranuclear-cascade+percolation+evaporation model has been applied to the 12 C+ 197 Au data measured by the INDRA-ALADIN collaboration at GSI. After the intranuclear cascade stage, the data are better reproduced when using the Statistical Multiframentation Model as afterburner. Further checks of the model are done on data from the EOS and KAOS collaborations.

Abstract

Energy spectra of fast protons arising from Ar + Ta collisions at 94 MeV/ u have been measured at large angles. These data are analysed in the framework of a one-body transport theory simulated by the BNV code. The low cross section measured for very energetic protons rules out a possible mechanism of kaon production via incoherent nucleon collisions at such low beam energies.

Abstract

Hot-nuclei fusion properties have been studied for the Ar + Ag system at 50 and 70 MeV/u bombarding energy. The set up was very well suited to the analysis of sequential evaporation leading to an evaporation residue since the residue was detected in coincidence with all the corresponding light charged particles by use of a 4π- multidetector. An event by event analysis was performed in order to distinguish between particles evaporated from the fusion nucleus and others. It was possible to reconstruct the initial excitation energy of the fusion nucleus by adding the contributions of all the charged decay products and by estimating the neutron contribution. It was found that the excitation energy distributions obtained at 50 and 70 MeV/u were quite similar. Very large values are reached in both cases (∼ 600 MeV). This result means that the standard statistical decay observed at limited excitation is still observed for very hot nuclei. The corresponding temperatures were measured from the kinetic-energy spectra slopes. Slightly larger values were observed at 70 MeV/u. This result is consistent with a slightly smaller mass of the fusion nucleus obtained in this case. In a last aspect of the experiment where many particles events were analysed in the 4π set up, it turned out that the highest involved excitation energies can lead either to a multifragment emission, or to a standard sequential statistical decay.

Abstract

Triple and four-fold coincidences among fragments have been measured in the reaction 84 Kr+Au at 43 MeV/u. All events showing the projectile-like nucleus and fission fragments of the target-like nucleus, and all events with one additional intermediate-velocity fragment, were analysed in the frame of a dissipative collision and a participant-spectator model. The mechanism is basically that of a dissipative collision but the emission of the intermediate velocity fragment by the target differs from an equilibrated evaporation.
