Abstract

Observables emitted from various spin states in compound U nuclei are investigated to validate usefulness of the surrogate reaction method. It was found that energy spectrum of cascading $\gamma$-rays and their multiplicities, spectrum of evaporated neutrons, and mass-distribution of fission fragments show clear dependence on the spin of decaying nuclei. The present results indicate that they can be used to infer populated spin distributions which significantly affect the decay branching ratio of the compound system produced by the surrogate reactions.
