Study of Equilibrium Using Collision Dynamics

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We discuss the possibility of equilibrium (and thermalization) in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies within a transport model. This was achieved by dividing the nuclear matter into different collision zones. We find that those nucleons which experience at least ten collisions are close to complete equilibrium whereas others never achieve any equlilbrium.
