TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed angular and velocity distributions of light charged particles, and fragments, and found that there is a certain amount of matter in excess emitted between the two primary sources suggesting either the existence of a mid-rapidity source similar to the one observed in the relativistic regime (participants), or a strong deformation induced by the dynamics of the collision (neck instability).

TL;DR: In this paper, detailed features of the multistep evaporation process concerning the decay of the 59 Cu compound nucleus, formed by a 32 S-beam at an energy E Lab = 8 MeV/amu, have been analyzed with respect to mean decay paths leading to a selected residual nucleus, in the frame of an out-of-plane angular correlation experiment, at 90°.

TL;DR: In this article, angular correlations of fragments from fissioning heavy reaction products have been measured with respect to the recoil direction, both in and out of the reaction plane, and the deduced angular momentum of the recoil particle is large.
Abstract: For the reaction 610-MeV $^{86}\mathrm{Kr}$ + $^{209}\mathrm{Bi}$, angular correlations of fragments from fissioning heavy reaction products have been measured with respect to the recoil direction, both in and out of the reaction plane. The deduced angular momentum of the recoil particle is large, $(50\ensuremath{-}70)\ensuremath{\hbar}$, and is consistent with that of the sticking limit and greater than that of the rolling limit. This result demonstrates the importance of the tangential component of the frictional force.

TL;DR: In this article, events with fragment multiplicities up to eight have been detected with a large detector array in Pb + Au reactions at 29 MeV/u and all collisions show a binary character irrespective of a possible further disassembly of the two highly excited primary partners.
