Fission fragments in coincidence with quasi-projectile in the reactions of 16O on 232Th and 197Au at 31 MeV/nucleon

We studied the linear momentum transfer in the reaction 16O on 232Th and 197Au at 31 MeV/u. For both targets, the most probable transferred linear momentum is 3. GeV/ c corresponding to 80% of the incident momentum. A linear dependence between the θ AB fission fragment correlation angle and the dete...

Description
Summary:We studied the linear momentum transfer in the reaction 16O on 232Th and 197Au at 31 MeV/u. For both targets, the most probable transferred linear momentum is 3. GeV/ c corresponding to 80% of the incident momentum. A linear dependence between the θ AB fission fragment correlation angle and the detected ejectile mass is observed. For projectile like fragments, the most probable value of θ AB is associated with beam velocity events. For light particles, we observe the dominance of large momentum transfer components whatever the measured energies.
