Abstract:Abrasion-ablation models and the empirical EPAX parametrization of projectile fragmentation are described. Their cross section predictions are compared to recent data of the fragmentation of secondary beams of neutronrich, unstable 19,20,21 O isotopes at beam energies near 600 MeV/nucleon as well as data for stable 17,18 O beams.
I IntroductionFragmentation of energetic heavy-ion beams is widely used to produce secondary beams of exotic nuclei far from stability [1]. In order to assess the feasibility of exper… Show more
