Abstract

The energy damped reaction products from37Cl+12C,27Al,48Ti and16O+48Ti were measured over a wide range of angles (typically 18°<θ lab<70°), incident energies (160 <E lab(37Cl)<200 MeV,E lab(16O)=118 MeV) and charges Z, including two systems (37Cl+37Al and16O+48Ti) which lead to the same compound nucleus64Zn with the same excitation energy and comparable angular momenta. The angular dependences of total kinetic energy (TKE) and dσ/dθ were decomposed into two components (forward peaked and nearly constant at backward angles), and the elemental TKE and cross sections were derived. The backward components of37Cl+27Al and16O+48Ti exhibit very different Z-distributions, indicating that the fragments do not originate from compound nucleus decay. The results can be understood in terms of an energy damping process.
