Kinematically complete measurements for Coulomb dissociation of n Li into 9 Li + 2« were made at 28 MeV/nucleon. The n-n correlation function suggests a large source size for the two-neutron emission. The electromagnetic excitation spectrum of n Li has a peak, as anticipated in low-energy dipole resonance models, but a large post-breakup Coulomb acceleration of the 9 Li fragment is observed, indicating a very short lifetime of the excited state and favoring direct breakup as the dissociation mechanism.
Using the large acceptance apparatus FOPI, we study central collisions in the reactions (energies in A GeV are given in parentheses): 40 Ca+ 40 ). The observables include cluster multiplicities, longitudinal and transverse rapidity distributions and stopping, and radial flow. The data are compared to earlier data where possible and to transport model simulations.
Collisions of Au on Au at incident energies of 150, 250 and 400 A MeV were studied with the FOPI-facility at GSI Darmstadt. Nuclear charge (Z ≤ 15) and velocity of the products were detected with full azimuthal acceptance at laboratory angles 1 • ≤ θ lab ≤ 30 • . Isotope separated light charged particles were measured with movable multiple telescopes in an angular range of 6 − 90 • . Central collisions representing about 1% of the reaction cross section were selected by requiring high total transverse energy, but vanishing sideflow. The velocity space distributions and yields of the emitted fragments are reported. The data are analysed in terms of a thermal model including radial flow. A comparison with predictions of the Quantum Molecular Model is presented.PACS: 25.70.Pq
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
