Exploring isospin effects in nuclear fragmentation and vaporization in far Fermi energy domain

Abstract

This Thesis reports the study to explore the isospin effects on nuclear fragmentation and the onset energy of nuclear vaporization in the far energy domain. Various observables such as fragment yield, fragment flow and nuclear stopping are probed to disentangle the isospin effects on multifragmentation. It has been reported that nuclear stopping is most sensitive to the isospin composition of the colliding system. This thesis also reports two new observables i.e., gas/liquid content and Pv concept to study the phenomenon of vaporization. The effect of various parameters such as system mass, collision geometry, Coulomb potential, momentum-dependent interaction, N/Z ratio of reacting pair, and different nuclear equations of state on the onset energy of vaporization is investigated in this thesis. newline
