Decay patterns of target-like and projectile-like nuclei produced in Kr-84+Au-197, U-nat reactions at E/A=150 MeV

The reactions Kr-84+Au-197 and Kr-84+U-nat were studied at an incident energy of E/A = 150 MeV employing the large-volume neutron multiplicity meter ORION, The observed correlations between the atomic number of projectile-like nuclei (PLN) and neutron multiplicity indicate large deposits of excitation energies in the primary fragments, Angular correlations between fragments from the fission of target-like nuclei (TLN) and secondary PLN show a memory of the reaction plane. No indications for spin effects were found in the TLN-fission fragment distribution.
