Abstract

Because of the volume character of energy deposition of energetic ions in matter, an intense heavy ion beam is a very suitable laboratory tool to create large samples of high-energy-density matter. This paper shows with the help of two-dimensional numerical simulations how such an intense heavy ion beam can be employed to achieve this goal. The beam parameters considered in this study are those of the beams that are delivered by the existing heavy ion synchrotron, SIS18 and that which will be available at the future facility SIS100, respectively at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI), Darmstadt.
