Stopping Power Calculations for Heavy Relativistic Ions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent theoretical results have led to improvements in formulas for dE=dx, particularly in the regime of high projectile charge and moderate to highly relativistic velocities. In addition, integration of dE=dx leads to predictions of total range given initial energy and, reciprocally, initial energy given total range. We have compiled theoretical formulas for dE=dx from a variety of sources into a computer code which we will make publicly available over the World Wide Web. We will also discuss comparisons of our code with experiment.

Local Field Correction Effect on Dicluster Stopping Power in a Strongly Coupled Two-Dimensional Electron Gas System
We calculate the stopping power for heavy-ion diclusters moving in a strongly coupled two-dimensional electron gas system by using the local field corrected dielectric function at finite temperature. We obtain a parameterized local field correction factor based on a relation between the thermal compressibility and exchange-correlation energy in two-dimension. The interpolated parameter is deriv...
متن کاملBaryon Stopping and Strangeness Production in Ultra-relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions *
The stopping behaviour of baryons in massive heavy ion collisions ( √ s ≫ 10AGeV) is investigated within different microscopic models. At SPS-energies the predictions range from full stopping to virtually total transparency. Experimental data are indicating strong stopping. The initial baryo-chemical potentials and temperatures at collider energies and their impact on the formation probability ...
متن کاملQuantifying Baryon Stopping in High Energy Nuclear Collisions
We propose a numerical definition for baryon stopping in relativistic heavy ion collisions that is obtainable from final hadron rapidity distributions as well as from bremsstrahlung measurements. Thus a new channel of communication is opened between the two methods. PACS: 25.75.-q, 13.40.-f
متن کاملStopping in Relativistic Heavy Ion Reactions From SIS to RHIC
The status of stopping in heavy ion reactions is reviewed by comparing available data in pp, pA and AA systems over the energy regime √ sNN ≈ 2.5− 130 GeV. The data consist of average rapidity losses, anti-proton over proton ratios, and net-baryon values at mid-rapidity. The overall features of nuclear stopping are reasonbly well described by simple extrapolations of pp, and pA collisions to AA.
متن کاملNuclear stopping and flow in heavy ion collisions and the in-medium NN cross section
We present transport calculations for heavy ion reactions in which the mean field and the in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross section are consistently based on the same effective interaction, i.e. the in-medium T-matrix from microscopic Dirac-Brueckner calculations. Doing so, the stopping in central reactions in terms of the recently proposed vartl observable and the correlation to the behavior of ...
