The relationship between particle freeze - out distributions and HBT radius parameters
نویسندگان
چکیده
The relationship between pion and kaon space-time freeze-out distributions and the HBT radius parameters in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions is investigated. We show that the HBT radius parameters in general do not reflect the R.M.S. deviations of the single particle production points. Instead , the HBT radius parameters are most closely related to the curvature of the two-particle space-time relative position distribution at the origin. We support our arguments by studies with a dynamical model (RQMD 2.4).

Explanation of the Rhic Hbt Puzzle by a Granular Source of Quark-gluon Plasma Droplets
We present a review on the explanation of the RHIC HBT puzzle by a granular pionemitting source of quark-gluon plasma droplets. The evolution of the droplet is described by relativistic hydrodynamics with an equation of state suggested by lattice gauge results. The granular source evolution is obtained by superposing all of the evolutions of individual droplets. Pions are assumed to be emitted ...
متن کاملHBT with Space- vs. Time-like Hydrodynamic Freezeout
Bose-Einstein correlations in relativistic heavy ion collisions and their dependence on the freeze-out condition in hydrodynamic models is examined. The Cooper & Frye space-like freeze-out mechanism is compared to time-like freeze-out, where particles are emitted away only from the surface, i.e. spacevs. time-like freeze-out. The corresponding HBT radii are calculated for the two models emphasi...
متن کاملInflation of fireballs, the gluon wind and the homogeneity of the HBT radii at RHIC
We solve analytically the ellipsoidally expanding fireball hydrodynamics with source terms in the momentum and energy equations, using the non-relativistic approximation. We find that energy transport from high pt jets of gluons to the medium leads to a transient, exponential inflation of the fireballs created in high energy heavy ion collisions. In this transient, inflatory period, the slopes ...
متن کاملFreeze-out from HBT and Coulomb Effects
The freeze-out of hot and dense hadronic matter formed in relativistic nuclear collisions is probed by HBT interferometry of identical pions, kaons, etc. Coulomb repulsion/attraction of positive/negative particles show up at small particle momenta and is also very sensitive to the freeze-out conditions. The source sizes and times freeze-out are extracted from π/π spectra and HBT radii and compa...
متن کاملHow to extract physics from HBT radius parameters
I review recent progress in the understanding of the connection between the space-time structure of the particle emitting source and the form of the two-particle correlation function in momentum space. Based on a new scheme for calculating the HBT radius parameters from the emission function, strategies are suggested to separate for rapidly expanding sources the information on the spatial and t...
