Abstract:
Equilibration times for nuclear matter configurations - modelling intermediate and high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions - are evaluated within the semiclassical off-shell transport approach developed recently. The transport equations are solved for a finite box in coordinate space employing periodic boundary conditions. The off-shell transport model is shown to give proper off-shell equilibrium distributions in the limit t --> infinity for the nucleon and Delta-resonance spectral functions. We find that equilibration times within the off-shell approach are only slightly enhanced as compared to the on-shell limit for the momentum configurations considered. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
