Abstract

Decay channels of multicharged fullerenes C60r+ (r = 3–6), produced in collisions of slow Ar8+ ions on C60 targets have been studied. By using multi-coincidence technique between outgoing projectiles, recoil fragment ions and ejected electrons, we have observed evaporation of C2 neutral fragments in low charge states (r = 3, 4), asymmetrical fission by the loss of one monocharged fragment for r = 3 to 6 and asymmetrical fission by the loss of more than one monocharged fragments for high charge states (r = 5, 6).
