چکیده
We consider the Tsallis distribution as a source of the apparent slope of one-particle spectra in heavy-ion collisions and investigate the equation of state of this special kind of quark matter in the framework of non-extensive thermodynamics. We relate the energy per particle to the power-law tail of spectra at a given temperature.

Modeling Magnetic Field in Heavy ion Collisions Using Two Different Nuclear Charge Density Distributions
By studying the properties of matter during heavy-ion collisions, a better understanding of the Quark-Gluon plasma is possible. One of the main areas of this study is the calculation of the magnetic field, particularly how the values of conductivity affects this field and how the field strength changes with proper time. In matching the theoretical calculations with results obtained in lab, two diffe...
متن کاملStrangeness Enhancement in Heavy Ion Collisions
Ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions provide a unique opportunity to study the properties of highly excited hadronic matter under extreme conditions of high density and temperature. From the analysis of rapidity distribution of protons and of their transverse energy measured in 158 A GeV/c Pb+Pb collisions an estimate of the initial condition leads to energy density of 2-3 GeV/fm and a baryon...
متن کاملHeavy Nuclei, from RHIC to the Cosmos
Ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions produce a high-temperature, thermalized system that may mimic the conditions present shortly after the big bang. This writeup will given an overview of early results from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), and discuss what we have learned about hot, strongly interacting nuclear systems. The thermal and chemical composition of the system will be d...

متن کاملExploring Qcd with Heavy Ion Collisions
After decades of painstaking research, the field of heavy ion physics has reached an exciting new era. Evidence is mounting that we can create a high temperature, high density, strongly interacting “bulk matter” state in the laboratory — perhaps even a quark-gluon plasma. This strongly interacting matter is likely to provide qualitative new information about the fundamental strong interaction, ...
