Angular distributions in quasi-fission reactions

1986

Abstract Angular distributions for fission-like fragments were measured in the systems 50Ti, 56Fe + 208Pb by applying an off-line K X-ray activation technique. The distributions d2σ/dθdZ exhibit forward-backward asymmetries that are strongly Z-dependent. They result from a process (quasi-fission) which yields nearly symmetric masses in times comparable to the rotational period of the composite system. A method for obtaining the variance of the tilting angular momentum, K02, from these skewed, differential angular distributions is described. The results indicate that the tilting mode is not fully excited in quasi-fission reactions. The results are compared to the sum of the variances of all …

Fission fragment angular distributions in the capture reactions 50Ti, 56Fe + 208Pb

2008

The analysis of %-ray mult ip l ic i t ies measured I in coincidence with capture fission events in reactions of 26Mg through 54Cr, 58Fe, and 64Ni with 208pb in terms of Ko and~eff revealed1 that the resulting values of ~ /~e f f were rather independent of for a given system and, in a compound nucleus picture, were more in agreement with the 'shape of the non-rotating saddle than with the actually expected rotating saddle I f non-compound systenmhave to be considered these values of ~/J~ff__ shapes. suggested at least that the captured systems near the turning point from the inward radial motion to symmetric fragmentation had reached a remarkable compactness.

Angular distributions in quasi-fission reactions: Evidence for incomplete relaxation of the tilting mode

1985

Angular distributions of fission-like fragments have been measured for50Ti+208Pb and56Fe+208Pb collisions. Z-dependent asymmetries around Θincm= 90° preclude their interpretation in terms of compound nucleus fission with the transition state theory. Fits of the data with a simple ansatz for statistical angular momentum fluctuations (tilting) give evidence for an incomplete relaxation of the tilting mode in quasi fission reactions.
