Abstract
The energy dissipation processes in multinucleon transfer reactions of 136Xe+198Pt at incident energies Elab=5.59 and 7.98 MeV/nucleon are investigated by using the improved quantum molecular dynamics model. The total-kinetic-energy-mass (TKE-Mass) distributions, the total kinetic energy loss (TKEL) distributions, and the excitation energy distributions of the primary binary products under different contact time scales of the reaction partners are analyzed. It shows that the value of the energy dissipation has an increasing trend over contact time. The quasielastic, the deep-inelastic, and the quasifission events can be roughly distinguished by the contact time. By analysing the correlation between the isotopic cross sections and the contact time, we find that the neutron-rich nuclei are produced in the deep-inelastic collisions.
