Net-charge probability distributions in heavy ion collisions at chemical freeze-out
The distributions for strangeness, electric charge and baryon number are explored in heavy ion collisions within the hadron resonance gas model. The proximity of the freeze-out curve to the phase boundary indicates that the QCD phase transition and its related critical properties should be observable in heavy ion collisions. However, an experimental verification of a phase change in a medium cr...
متن کاملCharge exchange in relativistic heavy ion collisions
Elastic charge-exchange in relativistic heavy ion collisions is responsible for the non-disruptive change of the charge state of the nuclei. We show that it can be reliably calculated within the eikonal approximation for the reaction part. The formalism is applied to the charge-pickup cross sections of 158 GeV/nucleon Pb projectiles on several targets. The relative contributions of pionand rho-...
متن کاملBallistic spin transport without net charge transport in quantum wells
We demonstrate the ballistic transport of electron spin in the absence of net transport of electron charge. Spin-up electrons move in one direction, while an equal number of spin-down electrons move with the same velocities in the opposite direction, yielding no net charge motion. This effect, also referred to as a ‘pure’ spin current, results from the quantum mechanical interference of the tra...
متن کاملMultistrange Baryon Production in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
One possible signal for the quark-gluon plasma, that is expected to be formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions, is enhanced production of strange particles [1], particularly those consisting of multistrange quarks such as cascade and omega as well as their antiparticles. Although transport models [2] can explain the enhanced production of light strange hadrons such as kaons and antikaons by...
متن کاملBaryon stopping as a new probe of geometric scaling.
We suggest using net-baryon rapidity distributions in central relativistic heavy-ion collisions at energies reached at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron, BNL Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC), and CERN LHC in order to probe saturation physics. Within the color glass condensate framework based on small-coupling QCD, net-baryon rapidity distributions are shown to exhibit geometric scaling. I...
