Abstract Correlations between emission angles and energies of coincidentα-particle projectile-fragment pairs have been measured for the20Ne+197Au system at 390 MeV beam energy. Theα-particles observed close to the direction of the projectile-like fragment were found to result essentially from sequential projectile decay. Starting from the close-geometry data, the contribution of sequentially emittedα-particles was calculated by Monte Carlo simulations for the entire angular range. For deep inelastic events, the measured angular correlations exhibit a spectacular excess over the calculated correlation. This excess is centred close to the beam direction but on the opposite side of it with respect to the detected projectile-like fragment. The correspondingα-particles have velocities around 85% of the projectile velocity indicating emission in an early reaction phase.
