Abstract

A review is made of the present status concerning the production of nuclei above 5 MeV temperature. Considerable progress has been made recently on the understanding of the formation and the fate of such hot nuclei. It appears that the nucleus seems more stable against temperature than predicted by static calculations. However, the occurence of multifragment production at high excitation energies is now well established. The various experimental features of the fragmentation process are discussed.
