• Transport model is one of the powerful methods for understanding the mechanism of SHE synthesis and the properties of nuclear matter

General view of transport models

The result shows that the dynamical process is about twice as probable in the neutron-rich system as in the neutron-poor one.This unexpected and significant difference ….

4, Predict more transparency than that observed experimentally in central collisions at intermediate energy

Insufficient production of fragments in the mid-rapidity region

R.Nebauer, J.Aichelin, NPA658(1999)

All the problems are not fixed by only changing the EOS or in-medium XS in previous studies!

It naturally require an improvements on the cluster recognition methods in the transport models !

Rnn0= Rnp0= Rpp0= R0 3.5 fm∼

In Regular MST, nucleons with relative distance of coordinate and momentum of |ri − rj |<R0 and |pi − pj |<P0 belong to a fragment.

roughly be in the range of nucleon-nucleon interaction, and is determined by fitting the global experimental data, such as the IMF multiplicities.

However, previous algorithms do not address the lack of isospin dependence in cluster recognition, which is the main focus of this work.

Failed in details, such as problem 2) and 3)

Isospin dependent MST

Rnn0= Rnp0~6.0 fmRpp0~3.0fm

Physical point of view:

1. properties of neutron-rich nuclei, such as neutron skin or neutron halo effect

2. long-range repulsive Coulomb force between protons in the cluster

3. hints from neutron-rich heavy ion collisions

1, Charge distribution

1, obviously reduce the yield of Z=1 part.

2, enhance the yield of fragments with Z>=2.

3, strongly enhance the yield of heavy fragments. (Z>=12)

Rapidity distribution for n,p2, n, p, t, He3 production

1, reduce the yield of both neutron and protons,

2, enhancement of the n/p, t/He3 ratios appears at mid-rapidity and lower kinetic energy

n/p, DR(n/p), t/He3, DR(t/He3)

3, enhancement of the DR(n/p), DR(t/He3) ratios appears at mid-rapidity and lower kinetic energy

1, enhance the production of the neutron-rich isotope, especially for neutron-rich reaction system

2, predict larger values of isoscaling parameter, alpha

• the equilibrium or stopping power of the system also depends on the detailed description of cluster formation implemented in the transport models as well as on the mean field and the in-medium NN cross section.

Conclusion

1. we introduce a phenomenological isospin dependence in the description of cluster formation in transport models by adopting different R0 values for pp, nn, and np, Rpp0= 3 fm and Rnn0= Rnp0= 6 fm.

2. The isospin-dependent minimum spanning tree method show suppression of Z = 1 particles and enhancement of fragments, especially for heavier fragments with Z >=12.

3. Furthermore, we find enhanced production of neutron-rich isotopes at mid-rapidity. Consequently, isospin-sensitive observables, such as the double ratios, DR(t/3He), and isoscaling parameter α increase to larger values.

4. The widths of the longitudinal and transverse rapidity distributions of Z = 1–6 particles also change, the degree of equilibrium become higher.

5. The isospin dependence of the cluster recognition can be easily implemented and should be included in nuclear transport models.
