A theoretical analysis of collective momentum transfer is performed in heavy-ion reactions below 100MeV/nucleon in the Landau-Vlasov approach. The nucleon-nucleon cross section, atomic mass, compressibility, and effective mass dependences are analyzed. The simulation of detector acceptances and of finite number of detected particles are discussed. In connection with recent experiments, theoretical results and experimental data are confronted taking into account the experimental constraints. Finite range forces of the Gogny type connected with different nuclear matter incompressibilities are used and the ensuing sensitivity of the Bow is studied. The question whether the Sow provides information on out-of-equilibrium matter properties is investigated.PACS number(s): 25.70.Gh, 24. 10.i
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
