Time-scale and branching ratios in sequential multifragmentation
TL;DR: In this paper, a single binary event probability that has the thermal dependence p = exp [ -B T ] was extracted from the intermediate-mass-fragment multiplicity distributions.

Reducibility and thermal scaling in nuclear multifragmentation
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the probability of emitting n -fragments is reducible to the probability for emitting a single fragment through the binomial expression, and that the resulting one fragment probability shows thermal scaling by producing linear Arrhenius plots.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the excitation functions for complex fragments with atomic number Z = 5−20 emitted from the compound nuclei 70,76 Se produced in the reactions 58,64 Ni + 12 C Mass asymmetric fission barriers with a transition state formalism were compared with those calculated from macroscopic nuclear models.

TL;DR: It is suggested that in the c {approx} 0 regime the source evaporates down to a sizable remnant, while for c {gt} 0 the source vaporizes completely.
Surface instabilities and nuclear multifragmentation
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a sheet of liquid, nuclear or otherwise, stable in the limit of infinitely sharp surfaces, becomes unstable due to surface-surface interactions, and the onset of this instability was determined analytically.
