نویسنده
چکیده
The forward-backward multiplicity correlation coefficient is calculated for arbitrary nucleus-nucleus collision in the framework of the wounded nucleon model. Discussion of our results in the context of the preliminary AuAu collisions STAR data is presented. PACS: 25.75.-q, 25.75.Gz

Long-range multiplicity correlations in proton-proton collisions
The forward-backward long-range multiplicity correlations in proton-proton collisions are investigated in the model with two independent sources of particles: one leftand one right-moving wounded nucleon. A good agreement with the UA5 collaboration proton-antiproton data at the c.m. energy of 200 GeV is observed. For comparison the model with only one source of particles is also discussed. PACS...
متن کاملFORWARD-BACKWARD MULTIPLICITY CORRELATIONS IN e+e− ANNIHILATION AND pp COLLISIONS AND THE WEIGHTED SUPERPOSITION MECHANISM
Forward-backward multiplicity correlations in symmetric collisions are calculated independently of the detailed form of the corresponding multiplicity distribution. Applications of these calculations to ee annihilation and pp̄ collisions confirm the existence of the weighted superposition mechanism of different classes of substructures or components. When applied to pp̄ collisions in particular, ...
متن کاملForward-Backward Multiplicity Correlations in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions
Forward-backward multiplicitycorrelations are investigated by analyzing the experimental data on O-AgBr collisions at 14.5A, 60A and 200A GeV/c and the findings are compared with the predictions of Monte Carlo model, hIJING. the findings indicate that the observed correlations are mainly of short-range in nature which arise due to the decay of clusters and (or) resonances produced in the centra...
متن کاملHeavy ion collisions in the used nucleon model
It is shown that recently proposed by R.J. Glauber the used nucleon model combined with the assumption that the nucleon consists of two constituents (a quark and a diquark) describes well the PHOBOS data on particle production at midrapidity. 1. In this note we investigate the consequences of the used nucleon model [1] in the context of the PHOBOS data on particle production at midrapidity [2–4...
متن کامل2 00 8 STAR ’ s measurement of Long - range forward - backward multiplicity correlations as the signature of “ dense partonic matter ” in the Heavy
Forward-backward multiplicity correlations have been measured with the STAR detector for Au+Au, Cu+Cu and p+p collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV. A strong, long-range correlation is observed for central heavy ion collisions that vanishes in semiperipheral events and pp collisions. There is no apparent scaling of correlation strength with the number of participants involved in the collision. Both the...
