Microscopic transport theory of heavy-ion collisions

III. Effects of fragment shell structure on mass transfer

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

Effects from shell structure on mass transport coefficients are studied in a schematic model. The diffusion coefficient is slightly reduced by shell effects, the reduction being less than 20% for realistic cases and reasonably high excitation energies. A much stronger effect results for the drift coefficient. This is due to the rapid variation of the shell correction energy as function of the fragmentation variable. The influence of shell effects on the time-dependent mass distributions is illustrated.
