Effects of Symmetry Energy on Two-Nucleon Correlation Functions in Heavy-Ion Collisions Induced by Neutron-Rich Nuclei

Effects of Symmetry Energy on Two-Nucleon Correlation Functions in Heavy-Ion Collisions Induced by Neutron-Rich Nuclei

Using an isospin-dependent transport model, we study the effects of nuclear symmetry energy on two-nucleon correlation functions in heavy ion collisions induced by neutron-rich nuclei. We find that the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy affects significantly the nucleon emission times in these collisions, leading to larger values of …
