Schematic representation of the light charged particle emission from fast-rotating heavy ion collision system.

Caption

In heavy ion collisions (HICs), while inclusive observations have been a common approach, three-body coincident measurements involving one light charged particle (LCP) and two fission fragments (FFs) offer a distinctive and precise means to investigate isospin migration within rapidly rotating fast-fission systems. The nuclear fast-fission process in HICs, a large-amplitude collective motion, is strongly linked to isospin transport. This connection provides an excellent way to explore the equation of state of nuclear matter, helping researchers understand nuclear matter properties and dynamics under extreme conditions.
