Using the Binary Reaction Spectrometer (BRS) together with the EUROBALL array of Ge detectors the coplanarity of events with two heavy fragments in the decay channels of the reaction 32S + 24Mg → 56Ni at an energy of EL = 163.5 MeV has been reconstructed. For the correlated detection of two heavy ejectiles, the BRS combines 2 large-area gas detector telescopes in a kinematic coincidence set-up.
Extremely narrow out-of-plane angular correlations are observed not only in the case of binary decays with no charge loss, but also for the events with missing charges of 4 and 6. This observation can be interpreted as due to ternary fission processes, proceeding through elongated shapes of the hyper deformed compound nucleus.
