Screening of initial parton production in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
Screening of initial parton production due to the presence of on-shell partons in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is discussed. It is shown that the divergent cross sections in the calculation of parton production can be regulated self-consistently without an ad hoc cut-off, and that the resultant parton production and transverse energy production rate are finite. Consequences on the energy de...
متن کاملHydrodynamic description of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
Relativistic hydrodynamics has been extensively applied to high energy heavy-ion collisions. We review hydrodynamic calculations for Au+Au collisions at RHIC energies and provide a comprehensive comparison between the model and experimental data. The model provides a very good description of all measured momentum distributions in central and semiperipheral Au+Au collisions, including the moment...
متن کاملAntilambda enhancement in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.
In the Walecka model, the antilambda mass in dense nuclear matter is smaller than its value in &ee space. This reduces the threshold for antilambda production in dense matter that forms in the compression stage of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. Because of the large number of mesons produced in the collision, the process KM —+ AN, where M denotes either a pion or a rho meson, is shown t...
متن کاملDimensions in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
Recent experiments on pion correlations, interpreted as interferometric measurements of the collision zone, are compared with models that distinguish a prehadronic phase and a hadronic phase. The models include prehadronic longitudinal expansion, conversion to hadrons in local kinetic equilibrium, and rescattering of the produced hadrons. We find that the longitudinal and outward radii are surp...
متن کاملParton Equilibration in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
Medium effects which include color screening and Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal suppression of induced radiation are discussed in connection with the equilibration of dense partonic system in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. Taking into account of these medium effects, the equilibration rate for a gluonic gas are derived and the consequences are discussed.
