AbstractAbstract
[en] In this work we have studied the reaction mechanisms implied in the heavy ion collisions at energies near the Fermi level. We have observed the predominance of binary processes (2 principal nuclei in the exit channel) and selected events leading to the fission of one of the two fragmentation products. On the basis of the study of angular distributions of fission fragments and associated light particles, we have determined the angular momentum of the nucleus in the moment of fission and the angular momentum transfer in the interaction. The comparison of experimental values of the angular momentum transferred with the theoretical models enables the characterization of projectile-target interaction. For the different systems studied, the spin of fissioning nucleus ranges between 30 ℎ and 60 ℎ while the transferred angular momentum may reach 90 ℎ. For these studies the determinant parameter is the sequence of emission of light particles and fragments, hence the lifetime associated to each processes. For central collisions we have measured pre-fission lifetimes lower then 10-21 sec. These values are very short in comparison with the statistical fission processes, what prompted to search for off-equilibrium (non-statistical) phenomena in the data. Taking into account the charges of the fission fragments we were able to isolate a dynamical component and a statistical component in the fission process. We have compared these two classes of events and showed that there is a relative excess of energy between the fragments when the origin of scission is dynamical. We hope to derive of this observable the nuclear deformation velocity and constrain the value of the nuclear matter viscosity in comparison with the theoretical models
