Antiproton at rest and in-flight within Intra-Nuclear Cascade Liege model (INCL)

Abstract

Antiproton-nucleus reaction is a versatile tool. It can be used to study fundamental behavior of antimatter (e.g., at CERN AD facility), neutron halo and skin of atomic nuclei (e.g., PUMA project), hyperon-antihyperon interaction (project at GSI FAIR), to name but a few. Since final state interactions are also important in such reactions and that the intranuclear cascade code INCL is known to do it well, it is naturally that its developers have been asked to add this new projectile to the list. Therefore, recent results of the new INCL version with antiproton as projectile are presented with comparisons to experimental data in wide energy range. The new version will be made available also in GEANT4, allowing to simulate future complex experiments involving p.
