Description
Based on the isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport model coupled with the Lorentz force equation, we studied nucleus-nucleus collision in strong magnetic field. We find that neutrons and protons can be separated from a nucleus by strong magnetic field and neutron-rich high density nuclear matter and low density proton collectivity matter can be formed during nucleus-nucleus collision. The electric field produced by proton collectivity can accelerate proton and charged meson up to very high energies. Besides the studies of isospin physics such as symmetry energy, these results may help us to understand the acceleration mechanisms of high energy charged particles in the cosmic rays.
