Central collisions of Au on Au at 150, 250 and 400 A·MeV

Abstract: 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, … Show more

“…The results for Au+Au collisions for all beam energies at midrapidity are shown in Fig. 2 For (dET /dη)/(0.5Npart) (a), data are shown from FOPI [27], E802 [28], NA49 [29,30] Figure 3b shows the same for (dN ch /dη)/(0.5N part ). Previous measurements in fixed target h+A collisions showed that the total charged particle multiplicity does scale well as a function of N part in the range of 10 ≤ √ s N N ≤ 20 GeV [36].…”

“…Heavy ion reactions at relativistic energies offer a wide range of possibilities to study the multi-fragment decay of highly excited nuclei [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. In collisions of heavy nuclei at incident energies exceeding values of about 100 MeV per nucleon [2], highly excited and equilibrated spectator systems are formed which decay by multifragmentation [9] in good agreement with statistical predictions [10,11].…”

“…The yields of particles not stopped in the CsI(Tl) detectors was very low at these backward angles and did not affect the deduced isotope ratios. The contamination of lithium yields by two- 4 He events (decay of 8 Be) was estimated to be 2% and ignored. However, because of the presumably different shapes of 3 He and 4 He spectra at low energies (cf.…”

“…It is important to note that there are problems with determining both the excitation energy [2,5,7,19] and the temperature [12][13][14][15][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] of multifragmenting systems. After correction for collective expansion, for example, calculated excitation energies for peripheral collisions at high energies must be further reduced by roughly 30% to reproduce experimental data and larger corrections are estimated for energetic central collisions [2,7,19,27]. Collective motion, pre-equilibrium emission and Coulomb barrier fluctuations increase significantly the temperatures deduced from kinetic energy spectra [1][2][3]12,19] while secondary decay modifies the temperatures deduced from excited state populations and isotope ratios [21,22].…”
