Phys. Rev. C 57, R457–R461 (1998)Emission of intermediate mass fragments using γ-spectroscopic techniques
Intermediate mass fragments (IMF) and light particles emitted from the 58Ni+58Ni reaction at a beam energy of 375 MeV have been studied. The fragments and light particles were measured in coincidence with 4π γ-ray spectrometer. The Z=6 (C) kinetic energy spectra and the distribution of the final nuclei in coincidence with the emitted C are well described by Hauser-Feshbach calculations extended to many channels. A detailed study of C-γ and 3α-γ correlations indicate a strong selectivity of the IMF decay. Our results indicate that the IMF can populate nuclei that are not accessible via multiple light particle (Z<3) emission and, thus, are useful for nuclear structure studies. © 1998 The American Physical Society URL:
