Abstract

The production cross sections of neutron-rich fission residues produced in reactions induced by a ²³⁸U beam impinging onto Pb and Be targets were investigated at the Fragment Separator (FRS) at GSI using the inverse kinematic technique. These data allowed us to discuss the optimum energies in fission for producing the most neutron-rich residues.
