Fermionic Molecular Dynamics: Multifragmentation in heavy-ion collisions and in excited nuclei

Abstract

Within Fermionic Molecular Dynamics we investigate fragmentation of a compound system which was created in a heavy-ion collision at a beam energy in the Fermi energy domain and the decay of excited iron nuclei. We show that in FMD many-body correlations play an important role in the formation of fragments.
