Abstract
We present the effect of longitudinal momentum unbalance on nuclear transparency by using a simple geometrical model with momentum conservation. We find that the isospin-tracer parameters, deduced by using isospin symmetric and asymmetric isobaric collisions, do not depend on the collision centrality or the beam energy. The isospin-tracer parameters estimated by using a geometrical model cannot reproduce the experimental data. As a result, the observed effect must come from true nuclear transparency.
