Abstract: (Elsevier)

To elucidate the observable distinctions between different reaction mechanisms for multifragment production in nuclear collisions at intermediate energies, we contrast two opposite extremes: sequential binary fission and simultaneous multifragment breakup ( true multifragmentation). For identical multifragment channels produced by these two idealized mechanisms, we examine the kinetic-energy spectra and the correlated velocity distributions of the fragments and discuss the possibility of identifying informative multifragment observables.
