Isotopic Transparency in Central Xe+Sn Collisions at 100 MeV/nucleon

A new method, based on comparing isotopic yield ratios measured at forward and sideward polar angles and on cross-bombarding heavy nuclei with different neutron-to-proton ratios, is used to quantify the stopping power of nuclear matter in heavy-ion collisions. For central collisions of isotopically separated $^{124,129}$Xe+$^{112,124}$Sn at 100~MeV/nucleon bombarding energy, measured with the 4$π$ multidetector INDRA at GSI, a moderate transparency is deduced for hydrogen isotopes, whereas for heavier fragmentation products with atomic number $Z \ge 3$ a high transparency exceeding 50\% is observed. An anomalously large transparency is found for alpha particles, and possible explanations are presented.

Alpha Cluster Model of Atomic Nuclei

Description of a nuclear system in its ground state and at low excitations based on the equation of state (EoS) around normal density is presented. In the expansion of the EoS around the saturation point additional spin polarization terms are taken into account. These terms, together with the standard symmetry term, are responsible for appearance of the $α$-like clusters in the ground state configurations of the N=Z even-even nuclei. At the nuclear surface these clusters can be identified as alpha particles. A correction for the surface effects is introduced for atomic nuclei. Taking into account an additional interaction between clusters the binding energies and sizes of the considered nuclei are very accurately described. The limits of the EoS parameters are established from the properties of the $α$, $^{3}$He and $t$ particles.
