General Comments:

Isotope discovery (2012Th10): 232Th(40Ar,X) at Dubna (1971Ar32).

35Si production:

2015Mo17: 9Be(40Ar,X) at E(40Ar)=95 MeV/nucleon at RIKEN. Measured angular distributions and transverse momentum distributions of fragments. Deduced formulation for the width of transverse momentum distribution as a function of fragment velocity.

2012Kw02: E(40Ar)=140 MeV/nucleon impinged on 9Be, natural nickel, and 181Ta targets at NSCL. Measured fragmentation cross sections, parallel momentum transfers, and widths. Compared with empirical formula EPAX, and predictions from internuclear cascade and deep inelastic models using Monte Carlo ISABEL-GEMINI and DIT-GEMINI codes.

2012Zh06: 9Be,181Ta(40Ar,X) at E(40Ar)=57 MeV/nucleon at HIRFL. Measured momentum distributions and production cross sections of fragments. Observed competition between projectile fragmentation and other mechanisms. Compared with EPAX, abrasion-ablation, and HIPSE models. Studied target dependence of fragment cross sections.

2007No13: 9Be(40Ar,X) at E(40Ar)=100 MeV/nucleon at RIKEN. Measured fragment momentum distributions and production cross sections.

2006Ro34: 2H(42S,X) at E(42S)=99.8 MeV/nucleon at NSCL. Measured production cross sections.

1997Fo01: 208Pb(37Cl,X) at E(37Cl)=230 MeV at Legnaro. Measured yields.

35Si decay measurements:

1986Du07,1986HuZW,1987DuZU,1988DuZS,1988DuZT: 9Be(40Ar,X) at GANIL. Measured T1/2 and β--delayed γ rays.

2007Ne14: Polarized 35Si from 9Be(36S,X) 1n pickup at GANIL. 35Si g.s. magnetic moment and g-factor using β-NMR.

35Si radius measurements:

2006Kh08: 35Si produced by 181Ta(48Ca,X) fragmentation at E(48Ca)=60.3 MeV/nucleon at GANIL. Measured energy-integrated reaction cross sections at 30-65 MeV/nucleon using a silicon telescope as both active target and detector. Deduced reduced strong absorption radii, isospin dependence, and possible halo structure or large deformation.

1999Ai02: Si(35Si,X) at NSCL. Measured energy-integrated reaction cross sections at E=38-80 MeV/ nucleon. Deduced strong absorption radii.

35Si mass measurements: 1986Fi06, 1986Sm05, 1984Ma49
