Atomic collisions with relativistic heavy ions. IX. Ultrarelativistic collisions

R Anholt, U Becker - Physical Review A, 1987 - APS
The behavior of projectile electron capture and ionization cross sections at ultrarelativistic
energies (> 10 GeV/amu) is discussed. Three mechanisms contribute to electron capture at …

Light-by-light scattering in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at low diphoton masses

M Kłusek-Gawenda, R McNulty, R Schicker… - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We present a study of photon-photon scattering in the mass range W γ γ< 5 GeV. We extend
earlier calculations of this cross section for W γ γ> 5 GeV into the low mass range where …

Emission patterns in central and peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions

R Stock, HH Gutbrod, WG Meyer, AM Poskanzer… - Physical Review Letters, 1980 - APS
Proton emission in relativistic nuclear collisions is examined for events of low and high
multiplicity, corresponding to large and small impact parameters. Peripheral reactions …

Exclusive and inclusive muon pair production in collisions of relativistic nuclei

K Hencken, EA Kuraev, VG Serbo - Physical Review C—Nuclear Physics, 2007 - APS
The exclusive production of one μ+ μ-pair in collisions of two ultrarelativistic nuclei is
considered. We present a simple method for the calculation of the Born cross section for this …

Alternative scenarios of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. III. Transverse momentum spectra

YB Ivanov - Physical Review C, 2014 - APS
Transverse-mass spectra, their inverse slopes, and mean transverse masses in relativistic
collisions of heavy nuclei are analyzed in a wide range of incident energies, 2.7 GeV≤ s …

Recent light particle correlation data from heavy ion collisions at intermediate and low energies

D Ardouin - International Journal of Modern Physics E, 1997 - World Scientific
We present a review of recent two-particle interferometry data for heavy-ion collisions in the
domain of energy between ten and a few hundreds of MeV/nucleon. Not only identical …

Heavy quark photoproduction in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions

SR Klein, J Nystrand, R Vogt - Physical Review C, 2002 - APS
Heavy quarks are copiously produced in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions. In the strong
electromagnetic fields, cc and bb are produced by photonuclear and two-photon …

Hard photons and neutral pions as probes of hot and dense nuclear matter

Y Schutz, G Martínez, FM Marqués, A Marin… - Nuclear Physics A, 1997 - Elsevier
The dynamics of heavy-ion collisions is studied in an energy domain in the vicinity of the
Fermi energy. The early history of the collision is analyzed from the theoretical and …

Transverse momenta, nuclear equation of state, and momentum-dependent interactions in heavy-ion collisions

C Gale, GM Welke, M Prakash, SJ Lee, SD Gupta - Physical Review C, 1990 - APS
We investigate the generation of transverse momentum in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
and its relation to the nuclear equation of state. We find that streamer chamber data can be …

Light particle correlations in heavy ion collisions

W Bauer - Nuclear Physics A, 1987 - Elsevier
The existing BUU theory of heavy ion collisions is modified to conserve total momentum and
retain the two-particle correlations induced by the collision term. In this framework the two …
