Abstract
In this work, we propose a novel method for calculating the occupation probability in the Pauli blocking of the quantum molecular dynamics type models. This method refines the description of the Pauli blocking ratio in the nuclear matter and that in the finite nucleus. The influence of the new Pauli blocking method on the heavy ion collisions observables, such as the charge distribution, the free neutron to proton yield ratios, and the extracted physical quantities, such as the in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections, are investigated. For the extracted in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections, our results show that it will be enhanced 1.1–2.5 times than that with the conventional Pauli blocking method at the beam energy less than 150 MeV/u, which highlights the importance of a refined Pauli blocking method for developing an advanced transport model to describe complex heavy ion collisions.
