Abstract

Isospin transport within a nuclear system is influenced by the density dependence of the symmetry energy. Studying isospin transport over relatively long times can therefore be a powerful tool to learn about the symmetry energy. The transiently deformed PLF* formed in an intermediate energy heavy-ion collision presents an opportunity to study isospin transport for a variety of initial configurations. Isospin transport is found to persist over several hundred fm/c , establishing the timescale for isospin equilibration.
