Abstract: | We investigate differential in-plane and out-of-plane flow observables in heavy-ion reactions at intermediate energies from
0.2-2 AGeV within the framework of relativistic BUU transport calculations. The mean field is based on microscopic Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock
(DB) calculations. We apply two different sets of DB predictions, those of ter Haar and Malfliet and more recent ones from
the Tübingen group, which are similar in general but differ in details. The latter DB calculations exclude spurious contributions
from the negative-energy sector to the mean field which results in a slightly softer equation of state and a less repulsive
momentum dependence of the nucleon-nucleus potential at high densities and high momenta. For the application to heavy-ion
collisions in both cases non-equilibrium features of the phase space are taken into account on the level of the effective
interaction. The systematic comparison to experimental data favours the less repulsive and softer model. Relative to non-relativistic
approaches one obtains larger values of the effective nucleon mass. This produces a sufficient amount of repulsion to describe
the differential flow data reasonably well.
