چکیده
Are heavy quarks produced thermally or only by hard parton collisions? What is the probability that a produced heavy quark or antiquark is observed in a given resonance?

Rapidity Dependence of Particle Production in Ultrarelativistic Nuclear Collisions
We compute the rapidity dependence of particle and transverse energy production in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at various beam energies and atomic numbers using the perturbative QCD + saturation model. The distribution is a broad gaussian near y = 0 but the rapid increase of particle production with the beam energy will via energy conservation strongly constrain the rapidity distribu...
متن کاملDiagnostics of Quark-gluon Plasma in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions by Hard
We analyze the possibilities for studying properties of dense QCD-matter, created in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions, by hard QCD-production processes, so-called ”hard” probes – heavy quarkonia, hard jets, high mass dimuons. Special attention is paid to the potential of coming heavy ion experiments on Large Hadron Collider to observe the rescattering and energy losses of hard partons in qu...
متن کاملAntilambda enhancement in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.
In the Walecka model, the antilambda mass in dense nuclear matter is smaller than its value in &ee space. This reduces the threshold for antilambda production in dense matter that forms in the compression stage of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. Because of the large number of mesons produced in the collision, the process KM —+ AN, where M denotes either a pion or a rho meson, is shown t...
متن کاملThe Effect of Shadowing on Initial Conditions, Transverse Energy and Hard Probes in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
The effect of shadowing on the early state of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions is investigated along with transverse energy and hard process production, specifically Drell-Yan, J/ψ, and Υ production. We choose several parton distributions and parameterizations of nuclear shadowing, as well as the spatial dependence of shadowing, to study the influence of shadowing on relevant observables....
