Temperature of Heavy Fragments in Heavy-Ion Collisions

The heavy fragments in heavy-ion collisions are finally formed after the hot prefragments undergo sequential decay, of whom the temperature should be much lower than that of prefragments. Using the double ratio (DR) method, the isotopic thermometer (Tiso ) for heavy fragment is constructed using the...

Summary:The heavy fragments in heavy-ion collisions are finally formed after the hot prefragments undergo sequential decay, of whom the temperature should be much lower than that of prefragments. Using the double ratio (DR) method, the isotopic thermometer (Tiso ) for heavy fragment is constructed using the yield of heavy isotopes. Tiso of heavy fragment is obtained by analyzing the measured data in the 1A GeV 124'136Xe and 140A MeV 48Ca/64Ni reactions. Result shows that Tiso varies from 0.5 MeV to 10 MeV. But most Tiso is around 1 4- 0.5 MeV, which is much lower than temperature of light particles. Result also indicates that the difference between Tiso of heavy fragments in different reactions is very small, and ~o is independent on the size of the reaction system, the incident energy and the neutron-richness of the projectile.
