Unlike in standard codes, the binary collisions are treated as non-local so that the contribution of the collision flux to the reaction dynamics is covered. A comparison with standard QMD simulations shows that the virial corrections lead to a broader proton distribution bringing theoretical spectra closer towards experimental values. Complementary BUU simulations reveal that the non-locality enhances the collision rate in the early stage of the reaction. It suggests that the broader distribution appears due to an enhanced pre-equilibrium emission of particles.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1999-01-08T08:36:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "heavy ion reactions", "virial corrections", "bringing theoretical spectra closer", "distribution bringing theoretical spectra", "proton distribution bringing theoretical" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
