Nuclear C(e, e′p) Transparencies in a Relativistic Glauber Model

Glauber Modeling in High-Energy Nuclear Collisions

We review the theoretical background, experimental techniques, and phenomenology of what is known in relativistic heavy ion physics as the Glauber model, which is used to calculate geometric quantities. A brief history of the original Glauber model is presented, with emphasis on its development into the purely classical, geometric picture used for present-day data analyses. Distinctions are mad...

Linear Glauber model.

We study the time-dependent and the stationary properties of the linear Glauber model in a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice. This model is equivalent to the voter model with noise. By using the Green function method, we get exact results for the two-point correlations from which the critical behavior is obtained. For vanishing noise the model becomes critical with exponents beta=0, gamma=1, and...

Multiphase transport model for relativistic nuclear collisions

To study heavy ion collisions at energies available from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider ~RHIC!, we have developed a multiphase transport model that includes both initial partonic and final hadronic interactions. Specifically, the Zhang’s parton cascade ~ZPC! model, which uses as input the parton distribution from the heavy ion jet interaction generator ~HIJING! model, is extended to includ...

Effective field theory: A complete relativistic nuclear model

We analyzed the results for finite nuclei and infinite nuclear and neutron matter using the standard σ−ω model and with the effective field theory. For the first time, we have shown here quantitatively that the inclusion of self-interaction of the vector mesons and the cross-interaction of all the mesons taken in the theory explain naturally the experimentally observed softness of equation of s...
