نویسنده
چکیده
Hydrodynamics is applied to describe the dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The focus of the present study is the influence of a possible (phase) transition to the quark–gluon plasma in the nuclear matter equation of state on collective observables, such as the lifetime of the system and the transverse directed flow of matter. It is shown that such a transition leads to a softening of the equation of state, and consequently to a time-delayed expansion which is in principle observable via two–particle correlation functions. Moreover, the delayed expansion leads to a local minimum in the excitation function of transverse directed flow around AGS energies.

From the particle ratios and the transverse momentum spectra of hadrons in relativistic heavy ion collisions, one can obtain chemical freeze-out temperature T ch and thermal freeze-out temperature T th through the analyses of statistical models [1]. These temperatures are usually different from each other at the AGS, SPS and RHIC energies, i.e., T ch ∼ 160-200 MeV while T th ∼ 100-140 MeV. This...

The pp → ppη ′ reaction is investigated within a relativistic meson-exchange model of hadronic interactions. We explore the role of nucleonic and mesonic, as well as the N * resonance currents, in producing η ′ mesons. In order to learn more about the production mechanisms, new measurements in the energy region far from the threshold are required.

This is a review of the latest developments in the theory of superdense nuclear matter, formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions or in the core of collapsed stars, as they were reported and discussed at the Quark Matter 2005 conference in Budapest (Hungary).

We study theoretically the spin response functions using the relativistic many body theory. The spin response functions in the relativistic theory are reduced largely from the ones of the non-relativistic theory. This happens particularly to the longitudinal spin responses. This fact is able to remove the difficulty in reproducing the ratio of the longitudinal and transverse response functions ...
