The Giessen Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (GiBUU) transport model with relativistic mean fields is adjusted and applied to antiproton-nucleus interactions in a wide beam-momentum range [1]. Using the antiproton-meson coupling constants determined from the analysis of p-absorption cross sections on nuclei at low beam momenta [1], we perform the GiBUU calculations of the dynamical response of the 16O nucleus to the moving antiproton [2]. It is shown that a slow antiproton (p ≤ 300 MeV/c) propagating through the nuclear interior induces the local nucleon density growth up to ∼ 2ρ0 caused by a strongly attractive p N potential. We evaluate the probability of antibaryon annihilation at enhanced nucleon density, which is ∼ 10−5 at the beam momenta or 3−10 GeV/c relevant for FAIR.
