This work is a study of the influence of shell effects on the formation of binary fragments in damped collision. We have investigated binary reaction channels of the composite system with Z = 108 produced in the reaction 88Sr+176Yb at an energy slightly above the Bass barrier (Ec.m./EBass = 1.03). Reaction products were detected by using the two-arm time-of-flight spectrometer CORSET at the K130 cyclotron of the Department of Physics, University of Jyv¨askyl¨a. The mass-energy distribution of primary binary fragments has been measured. For targetlike fragments heavier than 190 u, which correspond to a mass transfer as large as twenty nucleons or more, an enhancement of the yields is observed. This striking result can be ascribed to the proton shells at Z = 28 and 82 and implies the persistence of the shell effects in the formation of reaction fragments even for large mass transfers.

Abstract
This work is a study of the influence of shell effects on the formation of binary fragments in damped collision. We have investigated binary reaction channels of the composite system with Z = 108 produced in the reaction 88Sr+176Yb at an energy slightly above the Bass barrier (Ec.m./EBass = 1.03). Reaction products were detected by using the two-arm time-of-flight spectrometer CORSET at the K130 cyclotron of the Department of Physics, University of Jyv¨askyl¨a. The mass-energy distribution of primary binary fragments has been measured. For targetlike fragments heavier than 190 u, which correspond to a mass transfer as large as twenty nucleons or more, an enhancement of the yields is observed. This striking result can be ascribed to the proton shells at Z = 28 and 82 and implies the persistence of the shell effects in the formation of reaction fragments even for large mass transfers.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
