Antiproton-Nucleus Physics for „Day-1“

Nuclear potential of Λ

  • Mean pT in correlated ΛΛ

pairs

  • Missing mass in of forward Λ

Color Transparency Short Range Correlations ΔΔ component in the deuteron (and in nuclei) Additional ideas (?)

Existing Event Generators for A

URQMD

  • background generator
  • little flexibility, no access to source code(?)
  • I‘ve never used it

GiBUU

  • use for both background and signal
  • flexibility, many options, access to source code, very complex
  • I‘ve used it for ̅

Ca

⁄ → , FTF

  • both for ̅ and ̅, emphasis on background
  • some flexibility
  • I‘ve used it for ̅ only

Need Simple Signal Generator in A

Idea: implement ̅ collisions in EvtGen Physics model: quasi-free ̅ reactions with (A-1) spectator nucleus on nuclear proton or neutron with internal momentum

Decay Model

3$ 3' = 0.0146

select absolute momentum of A-1 spectator select isotropic cos :, ; calculate p4 of target nucleon: <= = − <>, ?= = @> − ?> calculate p4 of ̅ system and boost to initial ̅ system then ̅ system decays as specified in decay file
