Quasi-elastic and deep-inelastic primary cross sections in the 20Ne+159Tb reaction at 15 MeV/u

“…Fragmentationlike (FL) channels in which the primary fragments completely disintegrate into light particles (Z~< 2) are therefore not included. Such processes have been identified [ 17,16 ] before and also occur in the present reaction [4]. Their contribution can be estimated on basis of the cross section balance for light particle emission and have been added for completeness in fig.…”

“…refs. [ 17,1 ]. This fragmentation-like (FL) cross section, like the DI one, may either result from primary binary reactions or from non-binary…”
