Multifragment production in Au+Au at 35 MeV/u Multics / Miniball Collaboration

Multifragment disintegration has been measured with a high efficiency detection system for the reaction Au + Au at E/A = 35 MeV. From the event shape analysis and the comparison with the predictions of a many-body trajectories calculation the data, for central collisions, are compatible with a fast emission from a unique fragment source.
