We investigate how these fragments are correlated in phase space and compare our model calculations with minimum spanning tree (MST) method. Our theoretical study highlights the importance of binding energy criterion in recognizing the fragment structure. MST method however, fails to break-up the spectator matter effectively and thus under-estimates the multiplicity of intermediate mass fragments (IMFs).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-08-06T06:09:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "phase space analysis", "spectator matter fragmentation", "intermediate mass fragments", "model calculations", "minimum spanning tree" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 2, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 922468, "adsabs": "2011arXiv1108.1454V" } } }
