Abstract
In and out-of-plane angular correlations between light particles and projectile-like fragments from deeply inelastic collisions of 400 MeV40Ar+93Nb were measured. At backward angles, the equilibrium emission of a particles and protons from the target-like fragment was identified. By analysing the out-of-plane angular correlations in the framework of a semi-classical statistical model, an average spin of 30±2ℏ and an average alignment ofP zz =0.80±0.15 for the target-like fragment were deduced.
