Talk overview • Introduction • The Fermi energy & BDC • QP properties • Mid-rapidity emission • Early energy transformation • Conclusions • Outlook
From Coul. barrier to ~20 MeV/u Global properties • Mean fieldgovernscollision dynamics • The Pauli blocking “freezes”“hard” .NNcollisions Central collisions: Fusion Peripheral collisions: Binary Processes sTOT= sFUS+ s B.P.
The Fermi energy region Expected global properties • Weakened influence of the mean field • With increasing energy larger phase . space opens to the NNcollisions sTOT= sFUS+ s B.P. Still holds: sTOT~ sFUS Till early 90’s believed: Hot nuclei !!!
Binary Dissipative Collisions – BDC opens around the Fermi energy Irrespectively of - event centrality - system size - system asymmetry V.Metivier et al. (INDRA Collaboration), Nucl. Phys. A672 (2000) 357. sTOT< 0.05 sFUS
BDC reaction mechanism A two-stage process: • A compact quickly evolving early .reaction phase (prior to scission) • By birth of the primary QP & QT .starts the second reaction phase
