3 New approach of fragment charge correlations in 129 Xe + nat Sn central collisions
نویسنده
چکیده
A previous analysis of the charge (Z) correlations in the ∆Z− < Z > plane for Xe+Sn central collisions at 32 MeV/n has shown an enhancement in the production of equally sized fragments (low ∆Z) which was interpreted as an evidence for spinodal decomposition. However the signal is weak and rises the question of the estimation of the uncorrelated yield. After a critical analysis of its robustness, we propose in this paper a new technique to build the uncorrelated yield in the charge correlation function. The application of this method to Xe+Sn central collision data at 32, 39, 45 and 50 MeV/n does not show any particular enhancement of the correlation function in any ∆Z bin.

متن کاملFragment Charge Correlations and Spinodal Decomposition in Finite Nuclear Systems
Enhanced production of events with almost equal-sized fragments is experimentally revealed by charge correlations in the multifragmentation of a finite nuclear system selected in Xe central collisions on Sn. The evolution of their weight with the incident energy: 32, 39, 45, 50 AMeV, is measured. Dynamical stochastic mean field simulations performed at 32 AMeV, in which spinodal instabilities a...
متن کاملSource shape determination with directional fragment-fragment velocity correlations
Correlation functions, constructed from directional projections of the relative velocities of fragments, are used to determine the shape of the breakup volume in Preprint submitted to Elsevier 2 February 2008 coordinate space. For central collisions of Xe + Sn at 50 MeV per nucleon incident energy, measured with the 4π multi-detector INDRA at GSI, a prolate shape aligned along the beam directio...
متن کاملThermal Bremsstrahlung Probing the Nuclear Liquid-gas Phase Transition * for the Taps Collaboration
We present the results of the analysis of the hard photon production in the 129 Xe+ nat Sn at 50A MeV system studied in the GANIL E300 experiment. The energy and angular hard photon distributions confirm the existence of a thermal component which follows the recently measured thermal bremsstrahlung systematics. Exploiting the performances of our complete detection system, consisting of TAPS and...
