During collisions of heavy ions with heavy targets below the Coulomb barrier, adiabatic molecular orbitals are formed for the inner electrons. Deviations from adiabaticity lead to coupling between various states and can be treated by time-dependent perturbation theory. For high charges ( Z1+Z2 ≧ 60) the molecular electrons are highly relativistic. Therefore, the Dirac equation has to be used to obtain the energies and wave functions. The Dirac Hamiltonian is transformed into the intrinsic rotating coordinate system where prolate spheroidal coordinates are introduced. A set of basis functions is proposed which allows the evaluation of all matrix elements of the Dirac Hamiltonian analytically. The resulting matrix is diagonalized numerically. The finite nuclear charge distribution is also taken into account. Results are presented and discussed for various characteristic systems, e. g. Br-Br, Ni-Ni, I-I, Br-Zr, I-Au, U -U, etc.
The energy spectra of protons and light nuclei produced by the interaction of 4He and 20Ne projectiles with Al and U targets have been investigated at incident energies ranging from 0.25 to 2.1 GeV per nucleon. Single fragment inclusive spectra have been obtained at angles between 25° and 150°, in the energy range from 30 to 150 MeV/nucleon. The multiplicity of intermediate and high energy charged particles was determined in coincidence with the measured fragments. In a separate study, fragment spectra were obtained in the evaporation energy range from 12C and 20Ne bombardment of uranium. We observe structureless, exponentially decaying spectra throughout the range of studied fragment masses. There is evidence for two major classes of fragments; one with emission at intermediate temperature from a system moving slowly in the lab frame, and the other with high temperature emission from a system propagating at a velocity intermediate between target and projectile. The high energy proton spectra are fairly well reproduced by a nuclear fireball model based on simple geometrical, kinematical, and statistical assumptions. Light cluster emission is also discussed in the framework of statistical models.

Quasimolecular resonance structures in the 12C-12C system are studied in the framework of the coupled channel formalism in the energy range Ec.m.=5-14 MeV. The influence of the coupling of the first excited 2+ state in 12C on the resonance structures is investigated by choosing various types of coupling potentials. The intermediate structures in the reflection and transition coefficients and cross sections can be interpreted with the double resonance mechanism. NUCLEAR REACTIONS 12C(12C, 12C), quasimolecular states, coupling potentials, coupled channel calculations for σ(θ).
The theory of direct electron-positron pair production in the collision of heavy ions is formulated in the framework of the quasimolecular model. The pair production process acquires a collective nature for (Z1+Z2)α>1 and can be understood as the shakeoff of the strong vacuum polarization cloud formed in the quasimolecule. The total cross section is, e.g., 76 μb for Pb + Pb at Coulomb barrier energies.
Coupled channel calculations for Coulomb and nuclear excitation of the systems 136Xe-238U and 238U-238U have been performed using the rotation-vibration model. The impact parameter-, energy-and spin-dependence of the excitation probabilities are discussed for the ground state-, β-and γ-band up to Jπ = 36+. It is shown that the energy levels and quadrupole matrix elements are strongly influenced by the rotation-vibration interaction. Analytic expressions for the elastic and coupling potentials are presented.
Light-particle accompanied fission is expected to yield results from which one hopes to learn more about binary scission configurations. As a step in this direction, we present a model that allows the calculation of the probabilities with which a given three-particle setup follows from different binary configurations. First results show the workability of the model.
The temporal development of macroobservables is described within a correlation-functionformalism. The results are exact for a certain class of initial ensembles. The same problem is discussed with the help of the linear-response-formalism. The results agree under certain conditions which should be fulfilled for macroobservables.
For experiments on fission-fragment induced desorption the detection of significant correlations between desorbed ions has been reported [1]. In this paper the method for the detection and quantitative description of these correlations will be described. The statistics of the desorption-process leads to equations for mass-line intensities of ion spectra. Using a time-to-amplitude-converter for flight-time measurements these intensities depend on interdependences of different ions desorbed by the same fission-fragment. The equations allow the computation of correlationcoefficients whose interdependence with desorption probabilities of the respective ions can be shown in Venn-diagrams. Results are given and an interpretation is suggested for fission-fragment desorbed thiamine molecular and fragment ions.
