Strange Hadrons from Quark and Hadron Matter: a Comparison
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a simplified model we study the hadronization of quark matter in an expanding fireball, in particular the approach to a final hadronic composition in equilibrium. Ideal hadron gas equilibrium constrained by conservation laws, the fugacity parametrization, as well as linear and non-linear coalescence approaches are recognized as different approximations to this in-medium quark fusion process. It is shown that color confinement requires a dependence of the hadronization cross section on quark density in the presence of flow (dynamical confinement).

Particle production in central S-A collisions at 200 GeV/A energy is analysed within a thermal model. Present data imply that the strange particles freeze out at a higher temperature than the non-strange particles and that the strangeness saturation is incomplete. Introduction: A significant enhancement of strange particle production has been observed in high energy heavy ion collisions in comp...
متن کاملHypercentral Constituent Quark Model and Isospin for the Baryon Static Properties
So far the static properties of hadrons have been introduced in various models. The static properties of hadrons (charge radius, magnetic moment, etc.) are useful for understanding the quark structure of hadron. In this work we have introduced the hypercentral constituent quark and isospin dependent potentials. Here constituent quarks interact with each other via a potential in which we have ta...
متن کاملFlavor ordering of elliptic flows at high transverse momentum.
Based on the quark coalescence model for the parton-to-hadron phase transition in relativistic heavy ion collisions, we relate the elliptic flow (upsilon(2)) of high p(T) hadrons to that of high p(T) quarks. For high p(T) hadrons produced from an isospin-symmetric and quark-antiquark-symmetric partonic matter, magnitudes of their elliptic flows follow a flavor ordering as (upsilon(2,pi)=upsilon...
متن کاملProbing Dense Matter with Strange Hadrons
The signature of quark-gluon plasma is hard to identify, since the final state observed in the laboratory always consists of the same particles, irrespective of the transitional presence of the deconfined state. What changes is the detailed composition of the observed produced particle abundance. We consider here strangeness , and the pattern of strange hadron production at SPS and RHIC which o...
متن کاملChallenges and Successes
Highly effective conversion of kinetic energy into abundant particle multiplicity is the remarkable feature discovered in high energy heavy ion collisions. This short and pedagogic review addresses topical issues related to the understanding of this phenomenon, originating in the creation of the deconfined quark–gluon plasma phase. I consider in depth the apparently simple, yet sometimes misund...
