Size Matters: Origin of Binomial Scaling in Nuclear Fragmentation Experiments

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The relationship between measured transverse energy, total charge recovered in the detector, and size of the emitting system is investigated. Using only very simple assumptions, we are able to reproduce the observed binomial emission probabilities and their dependences on the transverse energy.
