Transverse mass distributions of neutral pions from 208 Pb - induced reactions at 158 · A GeV
نویسندگان
چکیده
Results on transverse mass spectra of neutral pions measured at central rapidity are presented for impact parameter selected 158·A GeV Pb + Pb, and Pb + Nb collisions. The distributions cover the range 0.5 GeV/c ≤ mT − m0 ≤ 4 GeV/c . The change of the spectral shape with centrality is studied in detail. In going from peripheral to medium central collisions there is a nuclear enhancement increasing with transverse mass similar to the well known Cronin effect, while for very central collisions this enhancement appears to be weaker than expected.

متن کاملProduction and Angular Correlations in 158 A GeV p + A and
Recent results of the WA98 experiment with p and Pb induced reactions at 158 AGeV are presented. Azimuthal γ-γ correlations at high p T were studied in search for a signal of jet-like structures. A clear indication for back-to-back correlations can be seen in p+A with a strong dependence on the p T of the photons and the size of the system. In Pb+Pb collisions in plane elliptic flow has been ob...
متن کاملHYPERON PRODUCTION IN PROTON-LEAD AND LEAD-LEAD COLLISIONS AT 158 GeV/c PER NUCLEON
for the WA97 collaboration) The WA97 experiment studies the production of strange and multistrange particles in Pb{Pb and p{Pb collisions at 158 GeV/c per nucleon. Recent results on and production ratios and transverse mass distributions are reported and compared with those obtained by WA85 and WA94 experiments. A signiicant enhancement of the // ratio has been observed when going from nucleon-...
متن کاملHigh-pT Neutral Pion Production in Heavy Ion Collisions at SPS and RHIC
Transverse momentum spectra for neutral pions have been measured by the WA98 experiment in √ snn=17.3 GeV Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN SPS and by the PHENIX experiment in √ snn=130 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. The neutral pion yields in central collisions for both reaction systems are compared to scaled transverse momentum spectra for nucleon-nucleon reactions at the respective energy. At SPS ...
متن کاملStudy of the transverse mass spectra of strange particles in Pb - Pb collisions at 158 A GeV / c
The NA57 experiment has collected high statistics, high purity samples of K0S and Λ, Ξ and Ω hyperons produced in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 A GeV/c. In this paper we present a study of the transverse mass spectra of these particles for a sample of events corresponding to the most central 53% of the inelastic Pb-Pb cross-section. We analyse the transverse mass distributions in the framework of the...
