The isospin dependence of preequilibrium nucleon emission for the neutron-d
eficient colliding system and neutron-rich system has been studied in the w
ide beam energy region. The calculation results show that the ratio of pree
quilibrium emission neutrons to protons is sensitive to the symmetrical pot
ential and insensitive to the isospin dependence of in-medium nucleonnucleo
n collision cross section from low beam energy region to high energy region
, in which nucleonnucleon collision dynamics is dominant, namely the isospi
n dependence of in-medium nucleonnucleon cross section excites neutron and
proton to be emitted with about the same probability in wide beam energy re
gion. At the same time, the neutrons and protons are excited to be emitted
with the same probability for Pauli potential, momentum dependence interact
ion and impact parameter, even though their effects on preequilibrium neutr
on number and proton number are obvious. The ratio of preequilibrium neutro
ns to protons for neutron-rich colliding system is larger than the initial
value of neutron-proton ratio of colliding system, but that for neutron-def
icient system is less than the initial value. In this case, one can compare
the theoretical results with the experimental data systematically to extra
ct information on the symmetrical potential.
