Abstract

A systematic study of the in-medium correction factor (F) on nucleon-nucleon elastic cross section is performed within the Ultra-relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) model. The effects of the beam energy dependence of F on the directed, elliptic flow and nuclear stopping in 197Au+197Au collisions with energy ranging from 0.09 to 0.8A GeV are explored. It is found that the directed, elliptic flow and nuclear stopping at relatively low energies are very sensitive to F, and the sensitivity gradually weakens with increasing beam energy. The beam energy dependent in-medium correction factor F is deduced from the comparison of the excitation functions of the directed, elliptic flow and nuclear stopping between the calculated results and the FOPI experimental data.
