Abstract
The nuclide cross sections and longitudinal velocity distributions of residues produced in the reactions of {sup 136}Xe and {sup 124}Xe at 1A GeV in a lead target were measured at the high-resolution magnetic spectrometer, the fragment separator (FRS) of GSI. The data cover a broad range of isotopes of the elements between Z=3 and Z=56 for {sup 136}Xe and between Z=5 and Z=55 for {sup 124}Xe, reaching down to cross sections of a few microbarns. The velocity distributions exhibit a Gaussian shape for masses above A=20, while more complex behavior is observed for lighter masses. The isotopic distributions for both reactions preserve a memory on the projectile N/Z ratio over the whole residue mass range.
