Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the role of binary dissipative collisions in the production of vaporization events with the 4π array INDRA and found that the excitation energy of the vaporizing partners covers a broad range from 6 to 28 A MeV.

TL;DR: Comparisons with theoretical predictions indicate that a fraction of the excitation energy of excited quasiprojectiles is associated with an isotropic radial flow in central collisions.
Abstract: Formation and decay of hot nuclei have been studied in Zn-64 + Ti-nat collisions between 35 and 79 MeV/nucleon. The mass and excitation energy of excited quasiprojectiles are reconstructed from the kinematical characteristics of their decay products. In central collisions, excitation energies larger than 10 MeV/nucleon are reached. Comparisons with theoretical predictions indicate that a fraction of the excitation energy is associated with an isotropic radial flow.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the kinematical properties and chemical composition of vaporizing sources observed in heavy-ion collisions, defined as sources for which all detected species have atomic numbers lower than 3.

TL;DR: In this article, the main trends as well as the evolution of fragment distributions are presented, along with reaction mechanisms for particular classes of events for particular types of events and a brief description of the experimental set-up is given.
Abstract: Within the framework of flow and multifragmentation study, the 36Ar + 58Ni experiment has been performed at seven incident energies from 32 to 95 A.MeV with the INDRA detector at GANIL. After a brief description of the experimental set-up, the main trends as well as the evolution of fragment distributions will be presented. Some results about reaction mechanisms for particular classes of events will conclude this report.
