Deriving the Qgp-hadron Transition Curve from Two Separate Partition Functions
نویسنده
چکیده
A method is developed to consistently satisfy the Gibbs equilibrium conditions between the quark-gluon and hadronic phase although each phase has been formulated in separate grand canonical partition function containing three quark flavours. The sector in the space of thermodynamic variables where the transition takes place is restricted to a curve, according to the phase diagram of QCD. The conservation laws of quantum numbers are also imposed on the transition curve. The effect of the inclusion of the newly discovered pentaquark states is considered. The freeze-out conditions of S + S, S + Ag (SPS) and Au + Au (RHIC) are found compatible with a primordial QGP phase, but the conditions indicated by Pb + Pb (SPS) are not.

Hadron widths in mixed-phase matter.
We derive classically an expression for a hadron width in a two-phase region of hadron gas and quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The presence of QGP gives hadrons larger widths than they would have in a pure hadron gas. We find that the φ width observed in a central Au+Au collision at √ s = 200 GeV/nucleon is a few MeV greater than the width in a pure hadron gas. The part of observed hadron widths due ...
متن کاملHard Thermal Photon Production in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
The recent status of hard thermal photon production in relativistic heavy ion collisions is reviewed and the current rates are presented with emphasis on corrected bremsstrahlung processes in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and quark-hadron duality. Employing Bjorken hydrodynamics with an EOS supporting the phase transition from QGP to hot hadron gas (HHG), thermal photon spectra are computed. For...
متن کاملNonequilibrium Photons as a Signature of Quark-hadron Phase Transition
We study the nonequilibrium photon production in the quark-hadron phase transition, using the Friedberg-Lee type solitons as a working model for quarkhadron physics. We propose that to search for nonequilibrium photons in the direct photon measurements of heavy-ion collisions may be a characteristic test of the transition from the quark-gluon to hadronic phases.
