Rapidity Dependence of Particle Production in Ultrarelativistic Nuclear Collisions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We compute the rapidity dependence of particle and transverse energy production in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at various beam energies and atomic numbers using the perturbative QCD + saturation model. The distribution is a broad gaussian near y = 0 but the rapid increase of particle production with the beam energy will via energy conservation strongly constrain the rapidity distribution at large y.

Centrality Dependence of Particle Production in p–A collisions measured by ALICE
We present the centrality dependence of particle production in p–Pb collisions at √ sNN = 5.02 TeV measured by the ALICE experiment, including the pseudo-rapidity and transverse momentum spectra, with a special emphasis on the event classification in centrality classes and its implications for the interpretation of the nuclear effects.
متن کاملJa n 19 99 Particle emission following Coulomb excitation in ultrarelativistic heavy - ion collisions
We study nuclear reactions induced by virtual photons associated with Lorentz-boosted Coulomb fields of ultrarelativistic heavy ions. Evaporation , fission and multifragmentation mechanisms are included in a new RELDIS code, which describes the deexcitation of residual nuclei formed after single and double photon absorption in peripheral heavy-ion collisions. Partial cross sections for differen...
متن کاملOverview and Recent Results from BRAHMS
The BRAHMS experiment was designed to measure and characterize in particular the properties of rapidity dependence of particle production in heavy ion collisions. The data-taking is now over, results of several years of analysis have been published and demonstrates several important features of the rapidity dependence, not envisioned from the start of the RHIC program. The bulk properties of th...
متن کاملRecent Results from the BRAHMS Experiment
We present recent results obtained by the BRAHMS experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) for the systems of Au + Au and Cu + Cu at √ s N N = 200 GeV and at 62.4 GeV, and p + p at √ s N N = 200 GeV. BRAHMS explores reaction dynamics and properties of the hot and high energy density matter produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions versus its longitudinal expansion. Over...
متن کاملMinijet and Transverse Energy Production in the BFKL Regime
Minijet production in hadronic and nuclear collisions through a BFKL pomeron ladder is studied for the energies of the future LHC heavy-ion collisions. We use unintegrated gluon densities compatible with the small-x increase of parton distributions observed at HERA. We show that at LHC energies the BFKL minijet and transverse energy production is at most of the same order of magnitude as that i...
