Nuclear matter at a HIRFL-CSR energy regime
We report some recent progress in constraining the symmetry energy Esym (p) at high densities using high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Circumstantial evidence of a soft Esym(p) at supra-saturation density is obtained by comparing the pion ratio n~/n+ measured recently with FOPI at GSI and the 1BUU04 model calculations. Detailed studies indicate that the power of determining the Esym(p) from π-/π+ is enhanced with decreasing the beam energy to near the pion production threshold, showing a correlation to the increasing nuclear stopping. Among several heavy-ion reaction facilities in the world, the cooling storage ring (HIRFL-CSR), newly commissioned at Lanzhou, delivering heavy-ion beams up to 1 A GeV, to be coupled with advanced detectors will contribute significantly to further studies of the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter.
