Abstract
Formation and decay of hot nuclei have been studied in Zn-64 + Ti-nat collisions between 35 and 79 MeV/nucleon. The mass and excitation ener gy of excited quasiprojectiles are reconstructed from the kinematical characteristics of their decay products. In central collisions, excita tion energies larger than 10 MeV/nucleon are reached. Comparisons with theoretical predictions indicate that a fraction of the excitation en ergy is associated with an isotropic radial flow.
