Relativistic Elastic Differential Cross Sections for Equal Mass Nuclei
arXiv:1411.4973 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2015.08.002
Abstract
The effects of relativistic kinematics are studied for nuclear collisions of equal mass nuclei. It is found that the relativistic and non-relativistic elastic scattering amplitudes are nearly indistinguishable, and, hence, the relativistic and non-relativistic differential cross sections become indistinguishable. These results are explained by analyzing the Lippmann-Schwinger equation with the first order optical potential that was employed in the calculation
