Nucleon-nucleon collision profile and cross section fluctuations

Nuclear Theory 2014-03-03 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

The nucleon-nucleon collision profile, being the basic entity of the wounded nucleon model, is usually adopted in the form of hard sphere or the Gaussian shape. We suggest that the cross section fluctuations given by the gamma distribution leads to the profile function which smoothly ranges between the both limiting forms. Examples demonstrating sensitivity of profile function on cross section fluctuations are discussed.
