TL;DR: In this paper, the lowest order correction of the density dependence of in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections is obtained from geometrical considerations of Pauli-blocking effects.
Abstract: The lowest-order correction of the density dependence of in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections is obtained from geometrical considerations of Pauli-blocking effects. As a by-product, it is shown that the medium corrections imply an 1/E energy dependence of the density-dependent term.

TL;DR: In this article, the production of electron-positron pairs with the capture of the electron in an atomic orbital was investigated for the conditions of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the validity of a delta-function approximation for the electromagnetic interaction of relativistic heavy ions is investigated and the production of e+e- pairs, with electron capture, is used as a test of the approximation.
