N/Z Dependence of projectile fragmentation — •Wolfgang Trautmann for the ALADiN2000 collaboration — GSI Darmstadt, Germany

The N/Z dependence of projectile fragmentation at relativistic energies has been studied in a recent experiment at the GSI laboratory with the ALADiN forward spectrometer coupled to the LAND neutron detector. Besides a primary beam of 124Sn, also secondary beams of 124La and 107Sn delivered by the FRS fragment separator have been used in order to extend the range of isotopic compositions of the produced spectator sources.

The presently ongoing analyses of the measured isotope yields focus on isoscaling and its relation to the symmetry-energy term used for the fragment description at freeze-out and on the derivation of freeze-out temperatures which are found to be independent of the isotopic composition of the studied systems. The latter result is of particular interest because it favours a concept of phase-space driven expansion over that of a Coulomb-driven expansion1 derived from the predictions of finite-temperature Hartree-Fock calculations.
