It is found that the pions and nucleons yield ratios in central $^{132}\\rm {Sn}+^{124}\\rm {Sn}$ reactions at 300 MeV/nucleon mainly probe the symmetry energy in the density region 1-1.5 times saturation density. However, the $\\pi^{-}/\\pi^{+}$ ratio may probe the density-dependent symmetry energy above 1.5 times saturation density by making some kinematic restrictions such as the azimuthal angle and kinetic energy cuts of emitting pions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-05-12T07:20:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mev/nucleon", "times saturation density", "density-dependent symmetry energy", "nucleons yield ratios", "kinetic energy cuts" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1458297 } } }
