TL;DR: In this paper, three fragment production has been studied in peripheral 208 Pb + 197 Au collisions at 29 MeV/u, where the formation and subsequent decay of neck-like structures producing a small fragment emitted at mid-rapidity in between the two partners of a deep inelastic scattering.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the lifetime of highly excited nuclei from the analysis of strongly damped Pb + Au collisions at 29 MeV/u and compared it with time scales corresponding to different types of dynamical instabilities which may be responsible for nuclear disassembly.

TL;DR: In this article, the angular distributions of the fission fragments of a gold target have been measured in peripheral collisions initiated by several beams: Ar, Kr, Xe, Pb at energies ranging from 27 to 60 MeV/u.

TL;DR: The angular momentum transfer in various peripheral reactions at energies ranging from 27 to 60 MeV/u have been deduced from the angular distributions of the fission fragments of the gold target as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new method to implement fluctuations in the mean field dynamics assuming local thermal equilibrium, they calculate the fluctuation amplitude according to the statistical value and determine the associated density variance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of fragments produced in events involving the multifragmentation of excited sources is studied for peripheral Au + Au reactions at 35 A MeV and an isotropic emission in its rest frame has been observed, indicating that an equilibrated system has been formed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the transverse energy of light particles as an impact parameter selector and compared the results with dynamical models with which a good agreement was obtained. But the results were not compared to dynamical model with which good agreement is obtained.
Abstract: Experimental data obtained with the 4{pi} multidetector system INDRA are used to study the light charged particle (LCP, Z{le}2) and intermediate mass fragment (IMF, Z{ge}3) production in peripheral and semicentral collisions of Xe and Sn at 50 MeV/nucleon. It is found that a sizable fraction of the detected LCP`s and IMF`s originates from the midvelocity region. These fragments can be seen to come either from a prompt (preequilibrium) mechanism or from a slower but dynamically influenced emission process. The relative magnitude of the dynamically influenced emission relative to the isotropic statistical evaporation is presented as a function of the transverse energy of light particles, used as an impact parameter selector. The results are compared to dynamical models with which a good agreement is obtained. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

TL;DR: In this article, the Au+Au system at energies from 40 to 1500 MeV per nucleon was investigated and the systematics were obtained by merging the results of the INDRA and FOPI experiments, both performed at GSI facility.
Abstract: Excitation functions of flow and stopping observables for the Au+Au system at energies from 40 to 1500 MeV per nucleon are presented. The systematics were obtained by merging the results of the INDRA and FOPI experiments, both performed at the GSI facility. The connection to the nuclear equation of state is discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review describes the main contributions obtained so far for such a search using data from the INDRA array, including the work of the authors of this paper and of the present paper.
Abstract: Searching for signatures of a liquid–gas transition has motivated great efforts in the study of heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies in the last few years. This review describes the main contributions obtained so far for such a search using data from the INDRA array.
