Characterization of nuclear physics targets using Rutherford backscattering and particle induced x-ray emission
Th. Rubehn, G. J. Wozniak, L. Phair +2
Rutherford backscattering and particle induced x-ray emission have been utilized to precisely characterize targets used in nuclear fission experiments. The method allows for a fast…
Do phase transitions survive binomial reducibility and thermal scaling?
L. G. Moretto, L. Phair, G. J. Wozniak
First order phase transitions are described in terms of the microcanonical and canonical ensemble, with special attention to finite size effects. Difficulties in interpreting a "ca…
The Role of Phase Space in Complex Fragment Emission from Low to Intermediate Energies
L. G. Moretto, R. Ghetti, K. X. Jing +3
The experimental emission probabilities of complex fragments by low energy compound nuclei and their dependence upon energy and atomic number are compared to the transition state r…
Scaling laws, transient times and shell effects in helium induced nuclear fission
Th. Rubehn, K. X. Jing, L. G. Moretto +3
Fission excitation functions of He-3 and He-4 induced compound nuclei are shown to scale exactly according to the Bohr-Wheeler transition state prediction once the shell effects ar…
Comment on "Circumstantial Evidence for Critical Behavior in Peripheral Au+Au Collisions at 35 MeV/nucleon"
L. Phair, Th. Rubehn, L. G. Moretto +1
Mastinu et al. recently reported the observation of several positive signals possibly indicating critical behavior in peripheral collisions of Au+Au at =35 MeV. In our comment…
Charge correlations and dynamical instabilities in the multifragment emission process
L. G. Moretto, Th. Rubehn, L. Phair +12
A new, sensitive method allows one to search for the enhancement of events with nearly equal-sized fragments as predicted by theoretical calculations based on volume or surface ins…
