Abstract

Within a BUU type transport model we study ϕ meson production in subthreshold Ni+Ni and Ru+Ru reactions. For the first time we included in our model the elementary reaction channels ρ+N,Δ ϕ+N, π+N(1520) ϕ+N and πρ ϕ. In spite of a substantial increase of the ϕ multiplicities by these channels our results stay significantly below the preliminary experimental data.
