An accurate impact parameter determination in a heavy ion collision is crucial for almost all further analysis. The capabilities of an artificial neural network are investigated to that respect. A novel input generation for the network is proposed, namely the transverse and longitudinal momentum distribution of all outgoing (or actually detectable) particles. The neural network approach yields ...

This appendix describes the procedure developed by Clough and Duncan (1971) for the determination of hyperbolic parameter values for interfaces. Hyperbolic parameter values of the interfaces between concrete and dense Density Sand, medium-dense Density Sand, and dense Light Castle Sand are determined based on the results of the initial loading tests presented in Appendix C. Example calculations...
