Probabilistic aspects of isoscaling

ORAL

Abstract

The problem of isoscaling, found in nuclear reactions, was studied using simple probabilistic arguments. Sampling two reservoirs containing different number of ”neutrons” but the same number of ”protons”, produced isoscaling. The parameters alpha and beta extracted from these results were found to depend on the number of protons and neutrons in each reservoir. These results show that mere sampling is a major contributor to isoscaling phenomena in nuclear reactions.
