Abstract

The correlations between the shape of rapidity distribution of the yield of light charged particles and the fragmentation modes in semi-peripheral collisions for 70^{70}Zn+70^{70}Zn, 64^{64}Zn+64^{64}Zn and 64^{64}Ni+64^{64}Ni at the beam energy of 35MeV/nucleon are investigated based on ImQMD05 code. Our studies show there is an interplay between the binary, ternary and multi-fragmentation break-up modes. The binary and ternary break-up modes more prefer to emit light charged particles at middle rapidity and give larger values of RyieldmidR_{yield}^{mid} compared with the multi-fragmentation break-up mode does. The reduced rapidity distribution for the normalized yields of p, d, t, 3^3He, 4^4He and 6^6He and the corresponding values of RyieldmidR_{yield}^{mid} can be used to estimate the probability of multi-fragmentation break-up modes. By comparing to experimental data, our results illustrate that \ge40\% of the collisions events belong to the multi-fragmentation break-up mode for the reactions we studied.
