Antisymmetrized molecular dynamics with quantum branching processes for   collisions of heavy nuclei
  Antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) with quantum branching processes is reformulated so that it can be applicable to the collisions of heavy nuclei such as Au + Au multifragmentation reactions. The quantum branching process due to the wave packet diffusion effect is treated as a random term in a Langevin-type equation of motion, whose numerical treatment is much easier than the method of the previous papers. Furthermore a new approximation formula, called the triple-loop approximation, is introduced in order to evaluate the Hamiltonian in the equation of motion with much less computation time than the exact calculation. A calculation is performed for the Au + Au central collisions at 150 MeV/nucleon. The result shows that AMD almost reproduces the copious fragment formation in this reaction.
