Clustering in heavy ion collisions . Why it could happen and how to observe it ?

چکیده
We argue that Clustering in heavy ion collisions could be the missing element in resolving the so-called HBT puzzle, and briefly discuss the different physical situations where clustering could be present. We then propose a method by which clustering in heavy ion collisions could be detected in a model-independent way

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...

In a recent paper (arXive:hep-ph/0406125) entitled Parity violation in hot QCD: why it can happen, and how to look for it, D. Kharzeev argues for the possibility of Pand/or CPviolation effects in heavy-ion collisions, the effects that can manifest themselves via asymmetry in π production with respect to the direction of the system angular momentum. Here we present an experimental observable tha...

متن کاملMultifragmentation, Clustering, and Coalescence in Nuclear Collisions
Nuclear collisions at intermediate, relativistic, and ultra-relativistic energies offer unique opportunities to study in detail manifold fragmentation and clustering phenomena in dense nuclear matter. At intermediate energies, the well known processes of nuclear multifragmentation – the disintegration of bulk nuclear matter in clusters of a wide range of sizes and masses – allow the study of th...
متن کاملCausality violations in cascade models of nuclear collisions.
Transport models have successfully described many aspects of intermediate energy heavy-ion collision dynamics. As the energies increase in these models to the ultrarelativistic regime, Lorentz covariance and causality are not strictly respected. The standard argument is that such effects are not important to final results; but they have not been seriously considered at high energies. We point o...
