Title: Theory of heavy ion collisions. Annual progress report. [Summaries of research activites at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute]

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6463258· OSTI ID:6463258

Theoretical studies of heavy-ion collisions for the period 1977 to 1978 are described. Complete damping, dynamical and random aspects, the role of deformation and transfer and nonequilibrium aspects in strong damping, the thermodynamic model of strongly damped collisions with one body dissipation, fusion excitation functions, and a hydrodynamical model for the disintegration of a hot zone in heavy ion collisions are considered. A list of publications is included. (JFP)
