Fission and Deep Spallation Characteristics in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions
Abstract
Numbers of emitted fast charged particles associated with heavier nuclear fragments are employed as a graphic means of differentiating fission and spallation contributions to target fragment emission in relativistic nuclear collisions. The violent nature of the deep spallation mechanism is observed directly.
