The electromagnetic interaction of ultrarelativistic heavy ions
The validity of a delta-function approximation for the electromagnetic interaction of relativistic heavy ions is investigated. The production of e+e− pairs, with electron capture, is used as a test of the approximation. The production of ee in peripheral collisions of relativistic heavy ions has attracted a great amount of theoretical interest due to its non-perturbative character. The calculat...
متن کاملNuclear multifragmentation induced by electromagnetic fields of ultrarelativistic heavy ions
We study the disintegration of nuclei by strong electromagnetic fields induced by ultrarelativistic heavy ions. The proposed multi-step model includes 1) the absorption of a virtual photon by a nucleus, 2) intranuclear cascades of produced hadrons and 3) statistical decay of the excited residual nucleus. The combined model describes well existing data on projectile fragmentation at energy 200 G...
متن کاملRecent Developments in Electromagnetic Excitation With Fast Heavy Ions
Coulomb dissociation is an especially simple and important reaction mechanism. Since the perturbation due to the electric field of the (target) nucleus is exactly known, firm conclusions can be drawn from such measurements. Electromagnetic matrixelements and astrophysical Sfactors for radiative capture processes can be extracted from experiments. The dissociation of neutron halo nuclei is studi...
متن کاملMultiple Electromagnetic Excitation in Fast Peripheral Heavy Ions Collisions
We study the corrections of first order electromagnetic excitation due to higher order electromagnetic interactions. An effective operator is introduced which takes these effects into account in the sudden approximation. Evaluating the matrix-elements of this operator between the relevant states corrections to the first order result are obtained in a simple way. As an example we discuss the exc...
متن کاملTwo Center Light Cone Calculation of Pair Production Induced by Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ions
An exact solution of the two center time-dependent Dirac equation for pair production induced by ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions is presented. Cross sections to specific final states approach those of perturbation theory. Multiplicity rates are reduced from perturbation theory. PACS: 25.75.-q, 34.90.+q
