Abstract

Cross sections, mean recoil ranges and angular distributions of radioactive a emitters produced in 12C, induced reactions at 1 GeV on medium and heavy targets are presented. A new on-line electrostatic collection device is used. A wide spectrum of heavy residues corresponding to various mass losses away from the target between D to 60 a.m.u. has been observed. A phenomenological analysis based on the statistical decay of possible precursors gives some information on the properties of the primary interaction. Losses of 10 to 30 nucleons can be partly fitted by the intranuclear cascade model. For greater mass losses, more collective primary interaction is needed. The abrasion-ablation model can produce such residues but in its clean cuts approximation the predicted excitation energy is too low.
