Observation of Hyperheavy Toroidal Configurations in BUU Simulations of Heavy Ion Collisions

A. Sochocka, R. Planeta, N.G. Nicolis

We study the formation of toroidal nuclear configurations in central and semi-central 124Sn+124Sn and Au+Au collisions. BUU simulations indicate that the threshold energy for toroidal configuration formation decreases with increasing mass of the interacting system.
