Statistical multifragmentation in central Au + Au collisions at 35 MeV/u

Multifragment disintegrations, measured for central Au + Au collisions at {E}/{A} = 35 MeV, are analyzed with the Statistical Multifragmentation Model. Charge distributions, mean fragment energies, and two-fragment correlation functions are well reproduced by the statistical breakup of a large, diluted and thermalized system slightly above the multifragmentation threshold.
