Abstract

The cascade model is suggested for inelastic interactions between antinucleons and atomic nuclei at energies up to 10 GeV. This version of the model includes the effect of the local reduction of the nuclear density during the development of the cascade and takes into account the de-excitation of the residual nuclei in terms of evaporation and multifragmentation. These improvements enable us to compare the calculations with experiment. The new physical phenomena which become noticeable in the antinucleon-nucleus interaction, are discussed. Steps towards the improvement of the model are outlined: the development of the joint “optical+cascade” model at low antinucleon energies, the inclusion of the space-time structure of the annihilation region and of the interaction of the fireball with nuclear matter.
