Low and intermediate energy heavy ion collisions in the semi-classical microscopic description

It is shown how peripheral and central heavy-ion collisions can be described by Landau-Vlasov dynamics. For peripheral collisions at intermediate energies, mass-mass correlations, ejectile mean energies and angular distributions are obtained and compared with fragmentation data. For central collisions, one shows that the collision term destroys the TDHF property of transparency at low impact parameters for collisions close from the Coulomb barrier. Above 20 MeV/u incomplete fusion is described with associated linear momentum transfer and nuclear deformations. One exhibits how coupling to the continuum is obtained in Vlasov and Landau-Vlasov dynamics. Coulomb interaction being taken into account, we present also results concerning the isospin transfer and the excitation of the isovector dipole mode near and well above the Coulomb barrier. Some perspectives to further studies of physical observables are finally drawn
