U.S.-Brazil Cooperative Research: Nuclear Multifragmentation at Intermediate Energies

9908727 tsang这项美巴奖学金将为巴西博士提供支持。密歇根州立大学国家超导回旋实验室（NSCL）的Man-Yee B. Tsang和William G. Lynch与Raul Donangelo博士领导的巴西联邦大学里约热内卢分校的同事合作。他们的目标是研究核多重碎片的理论解释，这一过程可能为核物质的液气相变提供见解。这项合作将使密歇根州立大学的实验学家与里约热内卢联邦大学的理论家一起工作。Donangelo博士是广泛使用的统计多碎片模型（SMM）的原始开发者之一。NSCL的研究小组拥有一组独特的多片段数据，需要对SMM和其他模型进行重大改进以进行解释。到目前为止，这两个研究小组一直致力于这些改进，这将使该模型能够对同位素产量进行准确的统计预测。当小组在nsl会面时，他们将与他们积累的大量数据进行比较，而在b里约热内卢，重点将放在模型开发上

9908727TsangThis US-Brazil award will provide support for Drs. Man-Yee B. Tsang and William G. Lynch of the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University to collaborate with colleagues at Brazil's Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, led by Dr. Raul Donangelo. Their goal is to study the theoretical interpretation of nuclear multifragmentation, a process that may provide insight into the liquid-gas phase transition of nuclear matter.This collaboration will bring experimentalists from Michigan State to work with theoreticians from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Dr. Donangelo is one of the original developers of the widely used Statistical Multifragmentation Model (SMM). The group at NSCL possesses a unique set of multifragmentation data that requires significant improvements to the SMM and other models for its interpretation. So far, the two groups have focussed on these improvements, which could make the model capable of accurate statistical predictions of isotopic yields. When the groups meet at NSCL, they will work on comparisons to the large volume of data they have accumulated, while in Rio the emphasis will be on model developments.***
