“…The first such array was the LBL Plastic Ball/Wall [15], which demonstrated the existence of events with high multiplicities of IMFs and light-charged particles (LCP: Z = 1,2) [16]. Later measurements at LNS Saclay confirmed the high IMF multiplicities and yield dependence on bombarding energy [17].…”

An extensive study of GeV light-ion-induced multifragmentation and its possible interpretation in terms of a nuclear liquid-gas phase transition has been performed with the Indiana Silicon Sphere (ISiS) 4π detector array. Measurements were performed with 5-15 GeV/c p, p, and π − beams incident on 197 Au and 2-5 GeV 3 He incident on nat Ag and 197 Au targets. Both the reaction dynamics and the subsequent decay of the heavy residues have been explored. The data provide evidence Preprint submitted to Elsevier Science 10 March 2018for a dramatic change in the reaction observables near an excitation energy of E*/A = 4-5 MeV per residue nucleon. In this region, fragment multiplicities and energy spectra indicate emission from an expanded/dilute source on a very short time scale (20-50 fm/c). These properties, along with caloric curve and scaling-law behavior, yield a pattern that is consistent with a nuclear liquid-gas phase transition.

“…With regard to the second stage, the production of IMF's (referred to here as masses typically between 4 and 50 amu) has been observed with apparently similar characteristics in the high energy domain (e.g., protons up to 350 GeV [6], 2~ projectiles of 2100 MeV/u [7]) as well as for heavy ions at low bombarding energy [8]. Several phenomenological descriptions of this second step have been proposed to explain the IMF production [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”
