New approach to intranuclear cascades with quantum Monte Carlo configurations
New approach to intranuclear cascades with quantum Monte Carlo configurations
We propose a novel semiclassical approach to intranuclear cascades, which takes as input quantum Monte Carlo nuclear configurations and uses a semiclassical, impact-parameter-based algorithm to model the propagation of protons and neutrons in the nuclear medium. We successfully compare our simulations to available proton-carbon scattering data and nuclear-transparency measurements. By …
