External Coulomb and angular momentum influence on isotope composition of nuclear fragments

The Markov chain statistical multifragmentation model predicts inhomogeneous distributions of fragments and their isospin in the freeze-out volume caused by an angular momentum and external long-range Coulomb field. These effects can take place in peripheral nucleus-nucleus collisions at intermediate energies and lead to neutron-rich isotopes produced in the midrapidity kinematical region of the reactions.
