Abstract
Drift and diffusion coefficients for the variables of mass fragmentation and excitation energy are studied for deeply inelastic collisions. The transport coefficients are obtained in closed form as functions of the parameters of the interaction matrix elements between nucleonic states and as functions of the binding energy of the intermediate rotating quasimolecular configuration. Drift and diffusion coefficients for excitation and mass transfer are related (dissipation fluctuation theorem). In good approximation these relations take the simple form of Einstein's relation between the mobility and the diffusion coefficient of a particle in a medium. For the total mass numbers 100, 250 and 500 the results are discussed in detail. The transport coefficients are compared with experimental results. Within the uncertainties of determination from experimental data, the drift and diffusion coefficients are well described by two previously adjusted parameters of the mean interaction matrix elements. Consequences for the production of superheavy elements in deeply inelastic collisions of U on U or Cf are discussed.
