Removing Distortions from Charge Balance Functions
Charge balance functions provide insight into critical issues concerning hadronization and transport in heavy-ion collisions by statistically isolating charge/anti-charge pairs which are correlated by charge conservation. However, distortions from residual interactions and unbalanced charges cloud the observable. Within the context of simple models, the significance of these effects is studied ...
متن کاملHadronic Fluctuations and Correlations
We will provide a review of some of the physics which can be addressed by studying fluctuations and correlations in heavy ion collisions. We will discuss Lattice QCD results on fluctuations and correlations and will put them into context with observables which have been measured in heavy-ion collisions. Special attention will be given to the QCD critical point and the first order co-existence r...
متن کاملField fluctuations measured by interferometry
We derive the complete photon count statistics of an interferometer based on two beam splitters. As a special case we consider a joint intensity–electric field measurement. Our approach is based on the transformation properties of state vectors as well as field operators at a beam splitter. PACS numbers: 42.50.Ct, 42.50.Ar, 42.50.Dv
متن کاملFluctuations and Correlations in STAR
The study of correlations and fluctuations can provide evidence for the production of the quarkgluon plasma (QGP) in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Various theories predict that the production of a QGP phase in relativistic heavy ion collisions could produce significant event-by-event correlations and fluctuations in, transverse momentum, multiplicity, etc. Some of the recent results using ...
متن کاملCharge fluctuations and counterion condensation.
We predict a condensation phenomenon in an overall neutral system, consisting of a single charged plate and its oppositely charged counterions. Based on the "two-fluid" model, in which the counterions are divided into a "free" and a "condensed" fraction, we argue that for high surface charge, fluctuations can lead to a phase transition in which a large fraction of counterions is condensed. Furt...
