In Fig. 8.4, we have shown the rapidity of various fragments, i.e., free nucleons
(FNs), light charges particles (LCPs), and intermediate mass fragments (IMFs) at 20
MeV/nucleon (left) and 150 MeV/nucleon (right panels) for
36 Mg +
36 Mg and
37 Mg
+
37 Mg. The rapidity of fragments is calculated using the following formula:
Y =

I n
E + p z
E − p z

Here, E and p z are the total energy and total longitudinal momentum of the fragment.
Various lines representing the reactions induced by stable (solid) and halo (dashed)
nuclei for different equation of states, i.e., soft, hard, SMD, and HMD as mentioned
in the graph. From the figure, we see that at 20 MeV/nucleon for soft equation of
state of energy the free nucleons (FNs) have greater contribution from the participant
region for
37 Mg +
