Abstract

Binary coincident fragments from the 63Cu + 197Au reaction at a copper energy of 605 MeV have been studied. Fragment energies were measured and fragment masses determined by a kinematic method. Three types of event are defined by suitable adjacent limits in the mass versus total kinetic energy event space. The angular distributions of cross section, average total kinetic energy and average mass have been determined for each event region. Total cross sections determined in the present experiment are compared to those found at lower bombarding energies. Further information on the sequential fission process has been obtained from measurements of yields of radioactive isotopes resulting from bombardment ofthin and thick targets of Au by 605 MeV Cu ions.
