- Description
- A possibility of an increase of the nuclear reaction cross section with incident energy for heavy ion collisions in the ultra-relativistic domain is suggested. At the energy of 200 GeV/A, the total reaction cross section may increase even up to twice the conventional geometrical cross section. Recent experimental results seem to be consistent with this picture.
