Description

A new method is proposed to identify the sequential decay of hot nuclei into large fragments. This method is based on a minimization procedure. It is illustrated for the Ar and Au reaction at 30 MeV/u. In this case, corresponding to about 3 MeV/u excitation energy, it is shown that the three fragment production can be explained by sequential binary splittings. (orig.)
