Abstract

Cross sections and differential recoil range distributions have been measured for 22 spallation products formed in the interaction of 120 MeV $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ with $^{197}\mathrm{Au}$. A Monte Carlo code has been produced that accounts for complete fusion as well as the transfer of \ensuremath{\alpha} particles and $^{8}\mathrm{Be}$. The results of the calculation compare very well with the experimental data. Incomplete fusion is found to account for more than one-half of nonfission events, and preequilibrium emission of fast nucleons is essential to a full description of the reaction.
