Book Pion Interferometry in Au Au and Cu Cu Collisions at Sqrt SNN

Download or read book Pion Interferometry in Au Au and Cu Cu Collisions at Sqrt SNN written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a systematic analysis of two-pion interferometry in Au+Au collisions at (square root)sNN = 62.4 GeV and Cu+Cu collisions at (square root)sNN = 62.4 and 200 GeV using the STAR detector at RHIC. The multiplicity and transverse momentum dependences of the extracted correlation lengths (radii) are studied. The scaling with charged particle multiplicity of the apparent system volume at final interaction is studied for the RHIC energy domain. The multiplicity scaling of the measured correlation radii is found to be independent of colliding system and collision energy.

Book Some Recent Results in Au Au Collisions at AGS

Download or read book Some Recent Results in Au Au Collisions at AGS written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many interesting results have been obtained for Au+ Au reactions at AGS. The basic information about the reaction dynamics comes from the hadronic distribution. and this article reviews the recent progress of these distributions in details. The proton rapidity distribution shows significantly increased stopping compared to lighter systems, implying the formation of a state of high baryon density. Unlike reactions at this energy induced by lighter heavy ions, at low[ital m[sub t] - m[sub 0]] the proton invariant spectra deviate from a single exponential shape and become fear, . while pion spectra are found to rise in this region, with the[pi][sup -] spectra rising faster than the[pi][sup+] spectra. The inverse slope parameter increases faster for particles of larger mass as the number of participants in the reaction increases, an indication of increased effect of radial expansion in central collision. Anti-proton Needs have been measured recently, and unfortunately a comparison among current results from different experiments indicates discrepancy.

Book Pion Interferometry in AuAu Collisions at a Center of Mass Energy Per Nucleon of 200 GeV

Download or read book Pion Interferometry in AuAu Collisions at a Center of Mass Energy Per Nucleon of 200 GeV written by Mercedes López Noriega and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Quantum Chromodynamics predicts a phase transition from a state formed by hadrons to a plasma of deconfined quarks and gluons, the Quark Gluon Plasma, as a the energy density exceeds a critical value. This deconfined phase is believed to be the one in which the early universe existed in a time-scale [approx.] 10−5 s after the Big Bang. Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions, like the ones that take place at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory, reach energy densities above the critical value creating a deconfined phase of quarks and gluons that can be studied at the laboratory. This gives us the opportunity to study a phase of matter in the deconfined region of QCD, the properties of the strong interaction, the formation of hadronic matter and the interaction between hadrons. In the analysis presented in this thesis, the dynamical evolution of the particle emitting source and its space-time structure at freeze-out is studied using the two particle intensity interferometry technique. The expansion of the source is also studied. We find indications that this expansion may be caused by the initial pressure gradient generated in the initial stages of the collision through particle rescattering in a very dense medium.

Book Directed Flow and Particle Production in Au Au Collisions from Experiment E877 at the AGS

Download or read book Directed Flow and Particle Production in Au Au Collisions from Experiment E877 at the AGS written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this article we summarize recent results on the study of Au+Au collisions at 10.8A GeV/c obtained at the AGS by the E877 Collaboration. New results on the directed sideward flow are presented. In particular, the dependence of proton and pion production on the direction of the reaction plane will be discussed. It is shown that the sideward flow is mainly due to nucleons and that pions show little flow effects. Two-pion correlation functions are studied to derive the density at freeze-out. Further, we inspect the correlations as a function of the pion direction relative to the reaction plane. A dependence of the deduced source sizes on the pair direction and momentum is observed. The measured source sizes are compared to results obtained in lighter systems. Measured m[sub t] spectra of pions and kaons are also presented. The pion spectra show an enhancement at low m[sub t] similar to that observed in Si+Pb and which was attributed to[triangle] resonance excitation. However, in contrast to Si+Pb now a clear difference between the[pi][sup+] and[pi][sup -] spectra is seen. The K[sup+] spectra, which showed a very steep component over a small p[sub t] range in the previously studied Si+Pb reaction exhibit for Au+Au an unexpected structure at very low p[sub t].

Book Advances in Nuclear Dynamics 5

Download or read book Advances in Nuclear Dynamics 5 written by Wolfgang Bauer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: th This workshop was the 15 in a series that addresses the subject of the dynamics of nuclear reactions. These workshops are dedicated to the concept that bringing together scientists from diverse areas of nuclear reactions promotes the vibrant exchange of ideas. This workshop hosted presentations from experimentalists and theorists, intermediate energy to ultrarelativistic energies, and final results to recent speculations. Many of these scientists would not normally be exposed to the work done in other subfields. Thus the Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics plays a unique role in information exchange and the stimulation of new ides. The field of nuclear dynamics has a bright future. New accelerators are being planned and completed around the world. New detectors are being constructed. New models and theories are being developed to describe these phenomena. The Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics will continue to promote this lively and compelling field of research. WOLFGANG BAUER AND GARY D. WESTFALL v Previous Workshops The following table contains a list of the dates and locations of the previous Winter Workshops on Nuclear Dynamics as well as the members of the organizing committees. The chairpersons of the conferences are underlined.

Book Pion Production in 4 5 GeV Au   Au Collisions from the STAR Fixed target Pilot Run

Download or read book Pion Production in 4 5 GeV Au Au Collisions from the STAR Fixed target Pilot Run written by Kathryn Carson Meehan and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) Program was proposed to look for the turn-off of signatures of the quark gluon plasma (QGP), search for a possible QCD critical point, and study the nature of the phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter. The first phase of the BES program (BES-I) took place from 2010-2016. Several interesting observables studied in BES-I, including the net-proton higher moments and the directed flow of protons, show interesting behavior below 20 GeV and could suggest a transition to a hadron dominated regime. Data from energies lower than 7 GeV could help determine whether these behaviors are indicative of phase transitions or criticality. The goal of the STAR Fixed-Target (FXT) Program is to extend the collision energy range in BES-II to lower energies than is feasible with colliding beams. In order for this program to be approved, it was necessary to demonstrate that STAR could successfully perform measurements in a fixed-target geometry. In this dissertation we present results from the fixed-target pilot run data set collected in 2015 with the STAR detector. The pilot run consisted of 4.5 GeV per nucleon center-of-mass energy Au + Au collisions. The [pi]− spectra and rapidity density are measured from the top 5% most central collisions and found to be comparable to previous results at similar energies from the AGS experiments. Additionally the 4[pi] yield is extracted and found to be 153 +/- 15 (stat) +/- 29 (sys). Together, these and additional results measured by other analyzers from multiple institutions in STAR, demonstrated that STAR can successfully reproduce many physics results from the AGS experiments. This helped convince the Brookhaven Program Advisory Committee (PAC) to include an official FXT program in BES-II, to be conducted in 2019-2021. Specifically, the PAC approved the collection of 100 million events each taken at eight different energies with STAR operating in the fixed-target configuration. This will extend BES-II to center-of-mass energies as low as 3.0 GeV per nucleon, nearly doubling the [mu][subscript B] reach of the BES program and thus broadening our search for interesting transition features in the phase diagram.
