چکیده

For midrapidity fragments from central 50-200 AMeV Au+Au collisions temperatures from double ratios of isotopic yields were compared with temperatures from particle un-bound states. Temperatures from particle unbound states with T ' 4 ? 5MeV show with increasing beam energy an increasing diierence to temperatures from double ratios of isotopic yields, which increase from T ' 5MeV to T ' 12MeV. The lower temperatures extracted from particle unstable states can be explained by increasing cooling of the decaying system due to expansion. This expansion is driven by the radial ow, and freeze out of particle unstable states might depend on the dynamics of the expanding system. Source sizes from pp-correlation functions were found to be 9 to 11 fm.

Central Coulomb Effects on Pion Interferometry

Using a simple final-state rescattering model coupled with a simple Coulomb model, the effects of the central Coulomb potential on pion interferometry measurements in 158 GeV/nucleon Pb+Pb collisions are explored. Although the central Coulomb potential does not introduce correlations between pions, it does prevent an accurate measurement of the momentum difference. This momentum difference smea...

(Anti)proton and Pion Source Sizes and Phase Space Densities in Heavy Ion Collisions

NA44 has measured mid-rapidity deuteron spectra from AA collisions at √ snn ≈ 18 GeV at the CERN SPS. Combining these spectra with published p, p̄ and d̄ data allows us to calculate, within a coalescence framework, p and p̄ source sizes and phase space densities. These results are compared to π source sizes measured by Hanbury-Brown Twiss, HBT, interferometry and phase densites produced by combini...

Emission times and opacities from interferometry in non-central Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

Understanding particle emission in relativistic nuclear collision is crucial in order to determine whether a phase transition to quark-gluon plasma has occurred. Particle interferometry was invented by Hanbury-Brown & Twiss (HBT) for stellar size determination [1] and is now employed in nuclear collisions [2–8]. It is a very powerful method to determine the 3-dimensional source sizes, lifetimes...

Two-particle correlation from a relativistic fluid with a first order phase transition

We numerically calculate two-particle correlation functions of CERN-SPS 158 A GeV Pb+Pb central collisions based on a (3+1)-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamics with a first order phase transition. We analyze the pair momentum dependence of pion source sizes extracted from the Yano-Koonin-Podgoretskĭı (YKP) parametrization which is expected to give the source sizes directly. We find that, eve...
