Classical microscopic description of U + U collisions

Calculations simulating head-on collisions between two mass-235 nuclei are made using classical kinematics, Monte-Carlo methods, and nucleon-nucleon cross sections. The calculated ratio of maximum particle density to the pre-collision nuclear density is ≈ 2 or 3, depending on details of the nucleon-...

Description
Summary:Calculations simulating head-on collisions between two mass-235 nuclei are made using classical kinematics, Monte-Carlo methods, and nucleon-nucleon cross sections. The calculated ratio of maximum particle density to the pre-collision nuclear density is ≈ 2 or 3, depending on details of the nucleon-nucleon scattering mechanism used.
