Description

Semi-central events of collisions 40,48Ca +40,48 Ca at 25 MeV/nucleon have been investigated by means of the Chimera multi-detector array. We find that the competition between evaporation residue and two or more fragment emission is regulated in a strong way by the neutron to proton ratio of the total reaction system. Comparisons of experimental data and Constrained Molecular Dynamics model calculations allow to obtain information about the behavior of the symmetry energy of the nuclear Equation of State.
