Abstract
More than 600 residual nuclei, formed in the spallation of 136Xe projectiles impinging on deuterium at 500 AMeV of incident energy, have been unambiguously identified and their production cross sections have been determined with high accuracy. By comparing these data to others previously measured for the reactions 136Xe + p at 1 AGeV and 136Xe + p at 500 AMeV we investigated the role that neutrons play in peripheral collisions and to understand the energy dissipation in frontal collisions in spallation reactions.

In the last decade, great efforts have been made in order to understand the spallation process
In this work, more than six hundred nuclei produced in reactions induced by 136Xe projectiles at 500 AMeV on a deuterium target has been identified
Summary
Great efforts have been made in order to understand the spallation process. The isotopic production of the residual nuclei issued in collisions of 136Xe projectiles at 500 AMeV on a deuterium target has been measured. The comparison of these results to previously measured reactions as 136Xe + p at 1 AGeV [5], and 136Xe + p at 500 AMeV [6], allow us to investigate and better understand the role that neutrons play in spallation reactions as well as the energy dissipation mechanism
