TORINO — A semiclassical coupled cannel code for heavy ion reactions

Abstract A program is presented for the study of collisions between heavy-ions. These include elastic, quasielastic, deep-inelastic and fusion processes. For the internal degrees of freedom of the two ions, we choose in TORINO the collective surface modes treated as dumped harmonic oscillators and incorporate the particle transfer as a statistical process. These degrees of freedom are represented by classical variables and their time evolution is followed by solving a system of first order differentia... Title of program: TORINO Catalogue Id: ABDB_v1_0 Nature of problem Collisions between two heavy nuclear systems give rise to a wide variety of phenomena. These include elastic, quasielastic, deep inelastic and fusion processes. The characteristics of these regimes are determined by an interplay between the relative motion of the two ions and the relevant internal degrees of freedom. Calculations of reaction cross sections with TORINO incorporate the explicit coupling to collective surface modes, which are treated as damped harmonic modes. The statistical exchan ...
