Interplay of anisotropies of momentum distribution and mean field in heavy-ion collisions
Background: Two important parametrizations of momentum-dependent nucleonic fields, proposed for the simulations of central heavy-ion collisions, one by Gale et al. [Phys. Rev. C 35, 1666 (1987)] and the other by Welke et al. [Phys. Rev. C 38, 2101 (1988)], suffer from practical limitations. The firs...

| Zusammenfassung: | Background: Two important parametrizations of momentum-dependent nucleonic fields, proposed for the simulations of central heavy-ion collisions, one by Gale et al. [Phys. Rev. C 35, 1666 (1987)] and the other by Welke et al. [Phys. Rev. C 38, 2101 (1988)], suffer from practical limitations. The first gives rise to mean fields isotropic in momentum, even when underlying momentum distributions are anisotropic, making descriptions of early nonequilibrium stages of collisions unrealistic. The second parametrization gives rise to anisotropic mean fields, but is computationally expensive, because the mean field has to be computed separately for every location of a nucleon in phase space, through folding. |
