New approach to intranuclear cascades with quantum Monte Carlo configurations

We propose a novel approach to intranuclear cascades which takes as input quantum MonteCarlo nuclear configurations and uses semi-classical, impact-parameter based algorithm modelthe propagation of protons neutrons in the medium. successfully compare oursimulations available proton-carbon scattering data nuclear-transparency measurements. Byanalyzing dependence simulated observables upon ingredients entering our intranuclearcascade algorithm, we provide quantitative understanding their impact. Particular emphasisis devoted role played by correlations, Pauli exclusion principle, interactionprobability distributions.
