Dual parton model with complete formation zone intranuclear cascade for the description of particle production in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions

Abstract

We present a Monte Carlo version of the dual parton model for the description of particle production in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions with a complete formation zone intranuclear cascade. All generations of secondary interactions are considered. Furthermore, Fermi motion and Pauli's principle are introduced to control the generation of low-energy nucleons. The model is compared with rapidity distributions and grey-particle production in hadron-nucleus interactions as well as with results from nucleus-nucleus collisions. Within the DPM the number of chains with sea-quarks at their ends grows with the complexity of the target and/or projectile nuclei as well as with the collision energy. We discuss this increase of chain-end sea-quarks as a mechanism for strangeness enhancement within the model. Furthermore we study the properties of the model at the energies of future heavy ion colliders.
