The dynamics of the nucleus-nucleus collisions is described by a set of coupled transport equations of the Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck type for baryons and mesons. Besides the $N(938)$ and the $\\Delta(1232)$ we also take into account nucleon resonances up to masses of $1.9 GeV/c^2$ as well as $\\pi$-, $\\eta$- and $\\rho$-mesons. We study in detail the influence of the higher baryonic resonances and the $2\\pi$-production channels ($NN\\to NN \\pi\\pi$) on the pion spectra in comparison to $\\pi^-$ data from $Ar + KCl$ collisions at $1.8$ GeV/A and $\\pi^0$-data for $Au+Au$ at 1.0 GeV/A. We, furthermore, present a detailed comparison of differential pion angular distributions with the BEVALAC data for Ar + KCl at 1.8 GeV/A. The general agreement obtained indicates that the overall reactions dynamics is well described by our novel transport approach.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-09-03T09:27:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "heavy-ion collisions", "sis energies", "pion-production", "differential pion angular distributions", "novel transport approach" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer", "journal": "Zeitschrift fur Physik A Hadrons and Nuclei", "year": 1997, "month": "Jan", "volume": 356, "number": 4, "pages": 421 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 31, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 422889, "adsabs": "1997ZPhyA.356..421T" } } }
