Description

The status of the analysis of the INDRA-VAMOS experiment performed at GANIL, using the reactions 40,48Ca+40,48Ca reactions at 35 AMeV, are presented. Isotopic distributions of fragments produced in multifragmentation events provide information on the importance of the surface term contribution in the symmetry energy by comparison to AMD predictions.
