# Comparison of AMD calculations with experimental data for peripheral collisions of 93Nb+93Nb,116Sn at 38 MeV/nucleon

## TL;DR

This study compares experimental data of peripheral collisions of 93Nb+93Nb and 93Nb+116Sn at 38 MeV/nucleon with AMD model calculations, showing good agreement for some properties but discrepancies in proton multiplicities.

## Contribution

It evaluates the AMD+Gemini simulation's accuracy in reproducing experimental collision data for specific nuclear systems at intermediate energies.

## Key findings

- Good reproduction of quasiprojectile properties like mass ratio, charge, and angle.
- Total emitted charge matches experimental data well.
- Proton multiplicities are overestimated by the model.

## Abstract

Experimental data concerning binary events in peripheral collisions for the systems 93Nb+93Nb and 93Nb+116Sn at 38 MeV/nucleon, collected with the Fiasco setup, are compared with calculations performed with the dynamic code AMD, coupled with the statistical code Gemini used as an afterburner. The comparison focuses on the properties of the quasiprojectile (QP) and on the total multiplicities of the emitted light charged particles. A good reproduction of the average mass ratio, charge Z and c.m. angle of the QP is obtained in the examined impact parameter range (b~7-12 fm). Concerning the light charged particles, a general agreement is found for the total emitted charge, while some discrepancy remains for the multiplicities of the various species, especially for the protons which are always overestimated by the calculations.
