Dilepton production in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions.
Many probes have been proposed to map out the behaviour of hot and dense hadronic matter and also to highlight its eventual transition to a plasma of quarks and gluons. It is outside the scope of this talk to review them all or even partially: we will concentrate on electromagnetic radiation and more specifically on the emission of thermal lepton pairs. Those suffer minimal final state interact...
متن کاملCluster Production in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
. . . may prove an interesting tool to extract physical quantities of the fireball, once the formation process has been understood. We assume an emission function of the form [1] with gaussian source parametrization and local thermal equilibrium distributions for nucleons in the hot, central reaction region. Using a Wigner function coalescence mechanism [2], we obtain a formula for the invarian...
متن کاملHeavy Resonance Production in Ultrarelativistic Nuclear Collisions ∗
Are heavy quarks produced thermally or only by hard parton collisions? What is the probability that a produced heavy quark or antiquark is observed in a given resonance?
متن کاملCoulomb Effects on Electromagnetic Pair Production in Ultrarelativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions
We discuss the implications of the eikonal amplitude on the pair production probability in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion transits. In this context the WeizsäckerWilliams method is shown to be exact in the ultrarelativistic limit, irrespective of the produced particles’ mass. A new equivalent single-photon distribution is derived which correctly accounts for the Coulomb distortions. As an immediat...
متن کاملQuark pair production in high energy pA collisions: General features
A consistent treatment of both multiple scattering and small x quantum evolution effects on pair production in high energy pA collisions is feasible in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) [1]. We first discuss the properties of quark pair production in the classical effective theory where only multiple scattering effects are included. Explicit results are given for pair production...
