Electromagnetic Probes of Dense Matter in Relativistic Heavy-ion Collisions
Dilepton and photon production in heavy-ion collisions at SPS energies is studied in the relativistic transport model that incorporates self-consistently the change of hadron masses in dense matter. It is found that the dilepton spectra in protonnucleus reactions can be well described by the conventional mechanisms of Dalitz decay, primary vector meson decay, decay of charmed mesons, and the in...
متن کاملNeutral Kaon System in Dense Matter and Heavy-ion Collisions
Above a critical matter density the propagating modes of the neutral kaon system are essentially eigenstates of strangeness, but below it they are almost complete eigenstates of CP. We estimate the real and imaginary parts of the energies of these modes and their mixing at all densities up to nuclear matter density 2×1014 g/cm. In a heavy ion collision the strong interactions create eigenstates...
متن کاملAsymmetric colliding nuclear matter approach in heavy ion collisions
The early stage of a heavy ion collision is governed by local non-equilibrium momentum distributions which have been approximated by colliding nuclear matter configurations, i.e. by two Lorentz elongated Fermi ellipsoids. This approach has been extended from the previous assumption of symmetric systems to asymmetric 2-Fermi sphere configurations, i.e. to different densities. This provides a smo...
متن کاملProbing cold dense nuclear matter.
The protons and neutrons in a nucleus can form strongly correlated nucleon pairs. Scattering experiments, in which a proton is knocked out of the nucleus with high-momentum transfer and high missing momentum, show that in carbon-12 the neutron-proton pairs are nearly 20 times as prevalent as proton-proton pairs and, by inference, neutron-neutron pairs. This difference between the types of pairs...
متن کاملHeavy Ion Plans: Experiments Perspective
An outlook of the experiments needs for Heavy Ion physics for the next ten years is given, including a summary of required beam types and configurations (e.g. p-Pb and collision energies other than the nominal 13 TeV). We discuss which, if any, other ion species than Pb are being considered. The experiment expectations in terms of integrated luminosities are discussed, along with the impact use...
