We successfully compare oursimulations to available proton-carbon scattering data and nuclear-transparency measurements. Byanalyzing the dependence of the simulated observables upon the ingredients entering our intranuclearcascade algorithm, we provide a quantitative understanding of their impact. Particular emphasisis devoted to the role played by nuclear correlations, the Pauli exclusion principle, and interactionprobability distributions.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/2007.15570v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/2007.15570v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-quantum-monte-carlo-based-approach-to","repo_url":"https://github.com/jxi24/IntranuclearCascade","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
