On the sensitivity of the energy of vanishing flow towards mass asymmetry of colliding nuclei

TL;DR

This paper investigates how the mass asymmetry of colliding nuclei influences the energy at which flow vanishes in nuclear reactions, revealing a significant effect largely independent of system size and geometry.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact of mass asymmetry on vanishing flow energy across various nuclei and collision geometries, highlighting its substantial role.

Findings

Mass asymmetry significantly affects the energy of vanishing flow.

The effect is largely independent of system size.

The effect persists across different colliding geometries.

Abstract

We demonstrate the role of the mass asymmetry in the energy of vanishing flow by studying asymmetric reactions throughout the periodic table and over entire colliding geometry. Our results, which are almost independent of the system size and as well as of the colliding geometries indicate a sizable effect of the asymmetry of the reaction on the energy of vanishing flow.
