Abstract

We present an extensive overview of production cross sections and kinetic energies for the complete set of nuclides formed in the spallation of ¹³⁶Xe by protons at the incident energy of 1 GeV per nucleon. The measurement was performed in inverse kinematics at the GSI fragment separator. Slightly below the Businaro-Gallone point, ¹³⁶Xe is the stable nuclide with the largest neutron excess. The kinematic data and cross sections collected in this work for the full nuclide production are a general benchmark for modeling the spallation process in a neutron-rich nuclear system, where fission is characterized by predominantly mass-asymmetric splits.
