Hydrodynamical modeling of relativistic collisions of heavy ions
Description
A method is developed for numerically modeling relativistic collisions of heavy ions on the basis of a hydrodynamical description. A new ''quiet'' hydrodynamical model is proposed which permits some unphysical effects to be eliminated in calculations. The model is used to calculate the velocity spectra and angular distributions of nucleons in the reaction 12C+208Pb at energies of 3.6 GeV/nucleon. The results are in qualitative agreement with experiment. During the collision the nuclear matter density reaches a value five times that of normal nuclear matter
