Phys. Rev. C 55, 2109–2111 (1997)Clustered and neutron-rich low density “neck” region produced in heavy-ion collisionsReceived 2 December 1996; published in the issue dated April 1997 The creation of a clustered and neutron-rich midvelocity (“neck” or “hot spot”) region in intermediate-energy heavy-ion collisions is discussed. Reaction simulations suggest that the preponderance of the neutron-rich species in isotopic and isobaric ratios results primarily from the amplification of the initial neutron excess due to d (and by inference α-particle) cluster formation. © 1997 The American Physical Society URL:
