Direct experimental evidence of non-equilibrium energy sharing in dissipative collisions

arXiv:nucl-ex/9611003 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.78.828

Abstract

Primary and secondary masses of heavy reaction products have been deduced from kinematics and E-ToF measurements, respectively, for the direct and reverse collisions of 100Mo with 120Sn at 14.1 A MeV. Direct experimental evidence of the correlation of energy-sharing with net mass transfer and model-independent results on the evolution of the average excitation from equal-energy to equal-temperature partition are presented.
