The charge density distribution with respect to the velocity of matter produced in peripheral heavy ion reactions around Fermi energy is investigated. The experimental finding of enhancement of mid-rapidity matter shows the necessity to include correlations beyond BUU which was performed in the framework of nonlocal kinetic theory. Different theoretical improvements are discussed. While the in-medium cross section changes the number of collisions, it leaves the transferred energy almost unchanged. In contrast the nonlocal scenario changes the energy transferred during collisions and leads to an enhancement of mid-rapidity matter. The renormalisation of quasiparticle energies can be included in nonlocal scenarios and leads to a further enhancement of mid-rapidity matter distribution. This renormalisation is accompanied by a dynamical softening of the equation of state seen in longer oscillation periods of the excited compressional collective mode. We propose to include quasiparticle renormalisation by using the Pauli-rejected collisions which circumvent the problem of backflows in Landau theory. Using the maximum relative velocity of projectile and target like fragments we associate experimental events with impact parameters of the simulations. For peripheral collisions we find a reasonable agreement between experiment and theory. For more central collisions, the velocity damping is higher in one-body simulations than observed experimentally, because of missing cluster formations in the kinetic theory used.
