Abstract

The bimodal behavior of the order parameter is studied in the framework of Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (BUU) transport model. In order to do that, simplified yet accurate method of BUU model is used which allow calculation of fluctuations in systems much larger than what was considered feasible in a well-known and already existing model. It is observed that depending on the projectile energy and centrality of the reaction, both entrance channel and exit channel effects can be at the origin of the experimentally observed bimodal behavior. Both dynamical and statistical bimodality mechanisms are associated in the theoretical model to different time scales of the reaction, and to different energy regimes.
