Investigation on symmetry and characteristic properties of the fragmenting source in heavy-ion reactions through reconstructed primary isotope yields

In this report, a kinematical focusing technique will be briefly described, and using this technique, the primary hot isotope yields from the multiplicities of evaporated light particles, associated with isotopically identified intermediate mass fragments, are reconstructed. Symmetry energy and characteristic properties of the fragmenting source at the time of the intermediate mass fragment formation are extracted from these reconstructed primary isotope yields using a self-consistent manner. The extracted density-dependent symmetry energy is further compared with those experimentally extracted from other heavy-ion reactions in literatures. A direct connection between the freeze-out concept and transport model simulations in a multifragmenting regime of heavy-ion collisions is also demonstrated quantitatively in the present work.
