On the sensitivity of transverse flow to the isospin-dependent cross-section and symmetry energy
arXiv:1107.5375 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.86.034607
Abstract
We study the transverse flow for systems having various N/Z ratios. We find the transverse flow is sensitive to N/Z ratio and, in fact, increases with N/Z of the system. The relative contribution of symmetry energy and isospin dependence of nucleon-nucleon cross section is also investigated. We find the greater sensitivity of symmetry energy in the lighter systems compared to heavier ones.
