Abstract

Comprehensive analysis of heavy ion reactions at low and intermediate energies is made using the Boltzmann Master Equation theory and a Relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics model, respectively. As an example of the large variety of applications of such a study, a result concerning space radiation protection is presented.
