Synthesis of thin-long heavy nuclei in ternary collisions

Abstract

We illustrate the formation of a thin-long structure of heavy nuclei by three-nucleus simultaneous collisions within time-dependent density functional theory. The impact parameter dependence for such formation is systematically demonstrated through clarifications of the difference between binary and ternary collision events. A new method for producing thin-long heavy nuclei in the laboratory is suggested, as well as the possible formation of the thin-long structure in hot dense matter such as that encountered in core collapse supernovae.
