Multinucleon Transfer in 25 MeV/nucleon 86 Kr + 64 Ni, 124 Sn Peripheral Collisions

In this work we investigate multinucleon transfer reaction channels in peripheral collisions between a 86 Kr projectile at 25 MeV/nucleon with 64 Ni and 124 Sn targets. The experimental data of these reactions were obtained with the Momentum Achromat Recoil Separator (MARS) at Texas A&M University in previous works of our group. We extracted and compared experimental mass and momentum per nucleon distributions of ejectiles with a two step model calculation. For the interaction of the projectile with the target, the phenomenological Deep Inelastic Transfer model (DIT) and the microscopic Constrained Molecular Dynamics model (CoMD) were used, both followed by the GEMINI model for the de-excitation of the primary excited projectile-like fragments. Generally, both DIT and CoMD appear to describe the trend of the data for both systems. However, possible further improvements in the models may be necessary. In conjunction with our recent work with a 86 Kr beam at 15 MeV/nucleon with a 64 Ni target, this study provides further insights into the reaction mechanisms of peripheral collisions in the Fermi energy regime and the production of neutron rich nuclides.
