Inclusive and exclusive measurements of light-charged particles (1,2,3H,4He) and heavy fragments have been made for the reaction 480 MeV 56Fe+natAg. The backward hemisphere emission of He4 and H1 in coincidence with a heavy fragment can be well described by evaporative emission from a combination of three sources: the detected fragment, the undetected fragment, and the composite system prior to scission. Multiplicities for each of these sources are determined for two coincident fragment groups: a fusion-fission-like group and a deeply-inelastic-reaction group. These multiplicities have also been studied at two angles for the trigger fragment (θTR=26° and 50°). For θTR=26° the multiplicity …
