Nature of physical problem:
The breakup of excited nuclei into many pieces of intermediate sizes is
described through a statistical model which assumes prompt breakup of a
thermalized system.
Method of solution:
Owing to the huge number of partitions which should be considered, a
Monte Carlo sample of the most important ones is performed in the
available phase space.
Memory storage required: Approximately 7N**2 double precision words and
N**2 (integer) words, where N is the largest mass number of the system.
The parameter statements in the program provide the default value
N = 500.
Typical running time:
316 elapsed seconds for the test run given in this paper (Compaq
Presario 1200XL310, Celeron 600MHz).
