Anisotropic distribution of nucleon participating in elliptical flow

Abstract

Using the isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model, we study the effect of charge asymmetry and isospin dependent cross-section on $\frac{dN}{d(<Cos2\phi>)}$ and $\frac{dN}{p_tdp_t}$. Simulations have been carried out for the reactions of $^{124}X_{m}+^{124}X_{m}$, where m = (47, 50 and 59) and $^{40}S_{16}+^{40}S_{16}$. Our study shows that these parameters depend strongly on the isospin of cross-section and charge asymmetry. The distribution of nucleons and fragments is not symmetric around the beam axis.
