From Stopping to Viscosity in Nuclear Reactions
arXiv:0903.2560 · doi:10.1063/1.3146204
Abstract
Data on stopping in intermediate-energy central heavy-ion collisions are analyzed following transport theory based on the Boltzmann equation. In consequence, values of nuclear shear viscosity are inferred. The inferred values are significantly larger than obtained for free nucleon dispersion relations and free nucleon-nucleon cross sections.
