Abstract

A strong thermal signature is found in the charge distributions associated with multifragmentation from the reaction 36Ar+197Au at E/A=110 MeV. The n-fold charge distributions are reducible to the onefold charge distributions through a simple scaling that is dictated by fold number and charge conservation.
