Idea of the event selections

At b=0

Tip-TipBody-Body

v2 = 0 v2 ≠ 0- high density!- longer duration!- easier reach thermalization!

Event selection in UU

Body-Body collisions exhibit large anisotropy in azimuth.

Event selection in UU

Event selection:

1) neutron multiplicity cut suppress body-body events

2) Larger ratio of tip-tip collisions survives a additional v2 cut.

3) Random geometrical configuration to be simulated.

5 Summary

EOS studies are drawing much attention and calling for more systematic studies.

HIRFL-CSR at Lanzhou, China can hope to add opportunities for nuclear EOS study in the high net-baryon density region. An External Target Facility (ETF) is in the preparing stage and detector R&D has started.

UU collisions provide a unique opportunity for creating a system with extended energy density and duration. The advantage is maintained only by effective identification of the geometrical configuration. Correlation between v2 and forward neutron multiplicity might practically help in the relevant energy region.

Complication arises (1): Finite size effect

Due to nuclear transparency, density and/or pressure achieved in HIC is not so high as the full stopped scenario predicts. reduce the sensitivity on EOS ? virtually “soften” EOS ?
