Hadronization of Dense Partonic Matter
نویسنده
چکیده
The parton recombination model has turned out to be a valuable tool to describe hadronization in high energy heavy ion collisions. I review the model and revisit recent progress in our understanding of hadron correlations. I also discuss higher Fock states in the hadrons, possible violations of the elliptic flow scaling and recombination effects in more dilute systems.

Selected Experimental Highlights from Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions at RHIC
Nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC produce high temperature and high energy density matter which exhibits partonic degrees of freedom. We will discuss measurements of nuclear modification factors for light hadrons and non-photonic electrons from heavy quark decays, which reflect the flavor dependence of energy loss of high momentum partons traversing the dense QCDmedium. The hadronization of bu...
متن کاملHadronization and Quark Probes of Deconfinement at RHIC
1 We discuss experimental features of identified particle production from nucleusnucleus collisions. These features reflect hadronization from a deconfined partonic matter whose particle formation scheme is distinctly different from fragmentation phenomenology in elementary collisions. Multi-parton dynamics, such as quark coalescences or recombinations, appear to be essential to explain the exp...
متن کاملWhat are the degrees of freedom in the partonic fluid at RHIC ?
Recent RHIC data show evidence of multiple hadron production mechanisms in heavy ion collisions compared to simple fragmentation in vacuum. I will review the measurements of collective flow, high momentum quenching, and two particle angular correlations to show that neither thermal production nor string fragmentation can describe the abundances, the angular distributions or the kinematic proper...

متن کاملMicroscopic description of the phase transition from hadronic to partonic matter and dynamics of hadronization
The nature of confinement and the dynamics of the phase transition from hadronic to partonic mattre is an outstanding question of todays physics. The dynamics of partons, hadrons and strings in relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is analyzed within the novel Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach, which is based on a dynamical quasiparticle model for partons (DQPM) matched ...
