Popis: Following the goal of improving the relativistic nuclear collisions toy-model proposed in Grossu et al. (2014), we added support for massless particles in all “Many-Body”, “High Precision”, and “Reactions” modules of the Chaos Many-Body Engine application. In this context, we discuss a first CMBE–HIJING comparative study on nuclear collisions at the maximum BNL energy. As a new high precision example of use, we implemented a 50 decimals precision simulation of a bound system composed by two massless particles with gravitational potential.

Help∖Options: CMBE options (e.g. the high precision maximum number of decimals). 5. GUI improvements (e.g. implementation of a new user control for high precision numbers I/O). Additional comments: The Many-Body Engine Module. For regular particles, CMBE provides a calculated property (Particle.RelativisticMass ) for obtaining the relativistic mass as a function of velocity. As this approach cannot be used for massless particles, the dependency on momentum (m=p/cm=p/c) was considered instead. The main impact of this change is related to the implementation of the second Newton’s law. Thus, the Next methods, of both Nbody and BigNBody classes, were modified accordingly. The Reactions Engine Module. The previous mentioned relation between momentum and relativistic mass was also used for the massless particles involved in both bi-particle reactions and decays (the ReactionEngine.GetreactionOutput and ReactionEngine.GetDecayOutput methods). For the particular case when the decay massless products are emitted along the movement direction we applied the Doppler shift equation [2]: equation(1) υo=υe1±β1−β2 where υoυo is the observed frequency, and υeυe the emitted frequency. The Toy-Model for Relativistic Nuclear Collision at present BNL energies. Following the goal of improving the relativistic nuclear collisions toy-model proposed in [1], we added the following reactions with photons (see the ColliderReactions.xml configuration file): π0→γ+γγ+p→p+p+pγ+p→p+p+pp+p→γ+γγ+n→n+n+nγ+n→n+n+nn+n→γ+γ. HIJING [3,4] is a Monte Carlo program based on QCD models for multiple jets production. In Fig. 1 we present, for exemplification, a CMBE–HIJING comparative analysis for 100 Cu + Cu ultracentral collisions at 200 A GeV/c, the maximum BNL energy [5]. The differences between CMBE and HIJING can be explained by both, dissimilarities in the reaction lists, and by the fact that HIJING takes into account the minijet production, with increasing weight for high-energy hadron and nuclear interactions. In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, minijets are responsible for the main transverse energy production in the central rapidity region. This generates, at least in part, the differences between HIJING and CMBE, mainly observed at mid-rapidity. Furthermore, HIJING also incorporates nuclear effects such as final state interactions and parton shadowing for heavy-ion interactions. Fig. 1. CMBE–HIJING comparative study.

As an exemplification of CMBE high precision capabilities, we considered also a bound system composed of 2 identical massless particles with gravitational potential. By imposing also the stationary de Broglie wave condition, we obtained the following simple equations: equation(2) m=nmP equation(3) r=nℏcmP where mm is the relativistic mass, rr the system radius, nn the principal quantum number, and mPmP the Planck mass. Taking into account the magnitude order of quantities involved, we chose to work at 50 decimals precision (see the Help/Options, “Max. number of decimals” CMBE setting).
