Description

The many-body nuclear decay known as multifragmentation is considered as a process competing with nuclear fission. It is shown that, in the particular case of disintegration of 238U by relativistic protons, the two processes occur simultaneously in the same nuclear reaction. 5 refs., 5 figs
