Abstract: The intensity interferometry is applied as a chronometer of the particle emission of hydrogen isotopes from the intermediate velocity source formed in $^{40}$Ar+$^{197}$Au reactions at 30 MeV/u. The dynamic emission order of $ tau_{ rm p}> tau_{ rm d}> tau_{ rm t}$ is evidenced via the correlation functions of nonidentical particle pairs. Assuming the similar source size, the same emission order is inferred from the correlation functions of identical particle pairs, where $ tau_{ rm p} approx 100 { rm ~fm/c}$ is extracted by the fit of Koonin-Pratt equation to p-p correlation function. Transport model simulations demonstrate that the dynamic emission order of light charged particles depends on the stiffness of the nuclear symmetry energy.

Abstract: The neutron rich neck zone created in heavy ion reaction is experimentally probed by the production of the $A=3$ isobars. The energy spectra and angular distributions of triton and $^3$He are measured with the CSHINE detector in $^{86}$Kr +$^{208}$Pb reactions at 25 MeV/u. While the energy spectrum of $^{3}$He is harder than that of triton, known as "$^{3}$He-puzzle", the yield ratio $R({ rm t/^3He})$ presents a robust rising trend with the polar angle in laboratory. Using the fission fragments to reconstruct the fission plane, the enhancement of out-plane $R({ rm t/^3He})$ is confirmed in comparison to the in-plane ratios. Transport model simulations reproduce qualitatively the experimental trends, but the quantitative agreement is not achieved. The results demonstrate that a neutron rich neck zone is formed in the reactions. Further studies are called for to understand the clustering and the isospin dynamics related to neck formation.

Abstract: Two-body correlations of the isotope-resolved light and heavy clusters are measured in 86Kr+ 208Pb reactions at 25 MeV/u. The yield and kinetic variables of the A = 3 isobars, triton and 3He, are analyzed in coincidence with the heavy clusters of 7 ≤ A ≤ 14 emitted at the earlier chance. While the velocity spectra of both triton and 3He exhibit scaling behavior over the type of the heavy clusters, the yield ratios of t/ 3He correlate reversely to the neutron-to-proton ratio N/Z of the latter, showing the ping-pong modality of the N/Z of emitted clusters. The commonality that the N/Z of the residues keeps the initial system value is extended to the cluster emission in heavy ion reactions. The comparison of transport model calculations to the data is discussed.
