Simulated Multifragmentation of $^{\mathrm{40}}$Ca with $^{\mathrm{40}}$Ca Collisions

POSTER

Abstract

Nuclear collision simulations are a valuable tool for studying the distribution of fragmentation products but require significant processor time to simulate. Using a simple two-body interaction model that treats each nucleon as a point particle significantly reduces this time while maintaining a high level of accuracy. With this model, we report on collisions of $^{\mathrm{40}}$Ca with $^{\mathrm{40}}$Ca and present their resulting fragmentation distributions.~
