Radial flow has little effect on clusterization at intermediate energies in the framework of the Lattice Gas Model
arXiv:nucl-th/0407062 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.70.064610
Abstract
The Lattice Gas Model was extended to incorporate the effect of radial flow. Contrary to popular belief, radial flow has little effect on the clusterization process in intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions except adding an ordered motion to the particles in the fragmentation source. We compared the results from the lattice gas model with and without radial flow to experimental data. We found that charge yields from central collisions are not significantly affected by inclusion of any reasonable radial flow.
