Abstract

Microscopic VUU and QMD calculations, which include the momentum dependence of the nuclear interactions, both predict the observed collective off-plane squeeze-out of nuclear matter in heavy ion collisions. A strong projectile mass dependence is found, in agreement with the data. A fragment mass dependence of the emission pattern is predicted. The off-plane squeeze-out is sensitive to the bulk properties of hot and dense nuclear matter, namely the nuclear viscosity and the equation of state.
