Generating heavy particles with energy and momentum conservation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a novel algorithm, called REGGAE, for the generation of momenta of a given sample of particle masses, evenly distributed in Lorentz invariant phase space and obeying energy and momentum conservation. In comparison to other existing algorithms, REGGAE is designed for the use in multiparticle production in hadronic and nuclear collisions where many hadrons are produced and a large part of the available energy is stored in the form of their masses. The algorithm uses a loop simulating multiple collisions which lead to production of configurations with reasonably large weights.

Wavefunction Collapse and Conservation Laws
It is emphasized that the collapse postulate of standard quantum theory can violate conservation of energy-momentum and there is no indication from where the energy-momentum comes or to where it goes. Likewise, in the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) dynamical collapse model, particles gain energy on average. In CSL, the usual Schrödinger dynamics is altered so that a randomly fluctuat...
متن کاملEnergy dependence of nuclear effects in hadron-nucleus collisions
The energy dependence of light and heavy particle production in hadron-nucleus collisions is discussed. Whereas the production mechanism at lower energies can be understood in the Glauber rescattering picture, experimental data at RHIC indicate that particles are mostly produced in coherent processes. The importance of energy-momentum conservation is shown to be crucial at forward rapidities fo...
متن کامل- 14 Separability , Preferred Bases , and the Nonconservation of Quantities
A solution to the preferred basis problem of Everett’s relative state formalism is presented. The solution does not rely on detailed properties of the observer, apart from the necessity of having at least one distinct state for each possible measurement result, and an initial state. It is argued that our concept that one entity is distinct from another arises from an approximation that the Hilb...
متن کاملRelativistic Brownian motion: from a microscopic binary collision model to the Langevin equation.
The Langevin equation (LE) for the one-dimensional relativistic Brownian motion is derived from a microscopic collision model. The model assumes that a heavy pointlike Brownian particle interacts with the lighter heat bath particles via elastic hard-core collisions. First, the commonly known, nonrelativistic LE is deduced from this model, by taking into account the nonrelativistic conservation ...
متن کاملFourier law in the alternate-mass hard-core potential chain.
We study energy transport in a one-dimensional model of elastically colliding particles with alternate masses m and M. In order to prevent total momentum conservation, we confine particles with mass M inside a cell of finite size. We provide convincing numerical evidence for the validity of Fourier law of heat conduction in spite of the lack of exponential dynamical instability. Comparison with...
