The reaction mechanism of the central collisions and peripheral collisions for $^{112,124}Sn+^{112,124}Sn$ at $E/A=50MeV$ is investigated within the framework of the Improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics model. The results show that multifragmentation process is an important mechanism at this energy region, and the influence of the cluster emission on the double n/p ratios and the isospin transport ratio are important. Furthermore, three observables, double n/p ratios, isospin diffusion and the rapidity distribution of the ratio $R_{7}$ for $^{112,124}Sn+^{112,124}Sn$ at E/A=50MeV are analyzed with the Improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics model. The results show that these three observables are sensitive to the density dependence of the symmetry energy. By comparing the calculation results to the data, the consistent constraint on the density dependence of the symmetry energy from these three observables is obtained.

Based on the ultrarelativistic quantum molecular dynamics (UrQMD) model, the effects of the density-dependent symmetry potential for baryons and of the Coulomb potential for produced mesons are investigated for neutron-rich heavy ion collisions at in termediate energies. The calculated results of the $Delta^-/Delta^{++}$ and $pi ^{-}/pi ^{+}$ production ratios show a clear beam-energy dependence on the density-dependent symmetry potential, which is stronger for the $pi ^{-}/pi ^{+}$ ratio close to the pion production threshold. The Coulomb potential of the mesons changes the transverse momentum distribution of the $pi ^{-}/pi ^{+}$ ratio significantly, though it alters only slightly the $pi^-$ and $pi^+$ total yields. The $pi^-$ yields, especially at midrapidity or at low transverse momenta and the $pi^-/pi^+$ ratios at low transverse momenta, are shown to be sensitive probes of the density-dependent symmetry potential in dense nuclear matter. The effect of the density-dependent symmetry potential on the production of both, K$^0$ and K$^+$ mesons, is also investigated.
The explicit density (rho) dependence in the coupling coefficients of the non-relativistic nuclear energy-density functional (EDF) encodes effects of three-nucleon forces and dynamical correlations. The necessity for a coupling coefficient in the for m of a small fractional power of rho is empirical and the power often chosen arbitrarily. Consequently, precision-oriented parameterisations risk overfitting and loss of predictive power. Observing that the Fermi momentum kF~rho^1/3 is a key variable in Fermi systems, we examine if a power hierarchy in kF can be inferred from the properties of homogeneous matter in a domain of densities which is relevant for nuclear structure and neutron stars. For later applications we want to determine an EDF that is of good quality but not overtrained. We fit polynomial and other functions of rho^1/3 to existing microscopic calculations of the energy of symmetric and pure neutron matter and analyze the fits. We select a form and parameter set which we found robust and examine the parameters naturalness and the resulting extrapolations. A statistical analysis confirms that low-order terms like rho^1/3 and rho^2/3 are the most relevant ones. It also hints at a different power hierarchy for symmetric vs. pure neutron matter, supporting the need for more than one rho^a terms in non-relativistic EDFs. The EDF we propose accommodates adopted properties of nuclear matter near saturation. Importantly, its extrapolation to dilute or asymmetric matter reproduces a range of existing microscopic results, to which it has not been fitted. It also predicts neutron-star properties consistent with observations. The coefficients display naturalness. Once determined for homogeneous matter, EDFs of the present form can be mapped onto Skyrme-type ones for use in nuclei. The statistical analysis can be extended to higher orders and for different ab initio calculations.
The density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy is inspected using the Statistical Multifragmentation Model with Skyrme effective interactions. The model consistently considers the expansion of the fragments volumes at finite temperature at the freeze-out stage. By selecting parameterizations of the Skyrme force that lead to very different equations of state for the symmetry energy, we investigate the sensitivity of different observables to the properties of the effective forces. Our results suggest that, in spite of being sensitive to the thermal dilation of the fragments volumes, it is difficult to distinguish among the Skyrme forces from the isoscaling analysis. On the other hand, the isotopic distribution of the emitted fragments turns out to be very sensitive to the force employed in the calculation.
Collisions involving 112Sn and 124Sn nuclei have been simulated with the improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics transport model. The results of the calculations reproduce isospin diffusion data from two different observables and the ratios of neutron an d proton spectra. By comparing these data to calculations performed over a range of symmetry energies at saturation density and different representations of the density dependence of the symmetry energy, constraints on the density dependence of the symmetry energy at sub-normal density are obtained. Results from present work are compared to constraints put forward in other recent analysis.
The KIDS framework for the nuclear equation of state (EoS) and energy density functional (EDF) offers the possibility to explore symmetry-energy (SE) parameters such as J (value at saturation density), L (slope), Ksym (curvature) and so on independen tly of each other and of assumptions about the effective mass. Here we examine the performance of EoSs with different SE parameters in reproducing nuclear properties and astronomical observations in an effort to constrain especially L and Ksym or the droplet-model counterpart Ktau. Assuming a standard EoS for symmetric matter, we explore several points on the hyperplane of (J,L,Ksym or Ktau) values. For each point, the corresponding EDF parameters and a pairing parameter are obtained for applications in spherical even-even nuclei. This is the first application of KIDS EDFs with pairing correlations. The EoSs are tested successively on properties of closed-shell nuclei, along the Sn isotopic chain, and on astronomical observations, in a step-by-step process of elimination and correction. A small regime of best-performing parameters is determined. The results strongly suggest that Ksym is negative and no lower than -200MeV, that Ktau lies between roughly -400 and -300MeV and that L lies between 40 and 65MeV with L<55MeV more likely. Correlations between symmetry-energy parameters are critically discussed. Predictions for the position of the neutron drip line and the neutron skin thickness of selected nuclei are reported. They are only weakly affected by the choice of effective mass values. Parts of the drip line can be sensitive to the SE parameters. The results underscore the role of Ktau and of precise astronomical input. Better constraints are possible with precise fits to nuclear energies and, in the future, more-precise input from astronomy.
