Abstract
Singles and coincidence charge distributions are combined to illustrate the mechanism for the 220-MeV40Ar+238U reaction. It is found that the apparent peak in the coincidence fragment distribution corresponding toZ=82 (A=208) can be explained in terms of the fissionability of the target-like fragments produced in deep-inelastic collisions rather than as a manifestation of shell effects in compound-nucleus fission, as has been postulated for a similar system.
