Statistical Model Predictions for Pb-Pb Collisions at LHC

نویسنده

چکیده

The systematics of Statistical Model parameters extracted from heavy-ion collisions at lower energies are exploited to extrapolate in the LHC regime. Predictions of various particle ratios are presented and particle production in central Pb-Pb collisions at LHC is discussed in the context of the Statistical Model. The sensitivity of several ratios on the temperature and the baryon chemical potential is studied in detail, and some of them, which are particularly appropriate to determine the chemical freeze-out point experimentally, are indicated. The impact of feed-down contributions from resonances, especially to light hadrons, is illustrated.

Heavy-flavour and quarkonium measurements in Pb–Pb collisions at √ sNN = 2.76 TeV with ALICE

We report on the latest results on heavy-flavour and J/ψ production at both midrapidity and forward rapidity, in Pb–Pb collisions at √ sNN = 2.76 TeV, measured with the ALICE experiment at the LHC. We present measurements of the nuclear modification factor for open heavy-flavours and J/ψ and compare these results to model predictions. Preliminary results on the elliptic flow of D mesons and J/ψ...

Statistical hadronization of heavy quarks in ultra-relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions

We present new results on the statistical hadronization of heavy quarks at SPS, RHIC and LHC energies. Several new aspects are considered, among them a separation of the collision geometry into a “core” and a “corona” part and an estimate of the annihilation rate of charm quark in a hot plasma, together with a critical assessment of its influence on the results. For RHIC energies we investigate...

Charged particle production in Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions at ALICE

Global event observables are of fundamental importance in characterizing the properties of the strongly interacting medium created in heavy-ion collisions. The ALICE experiment at LHC measured charged particle multiplicity distributions in Pb-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 2.76 TeV in a wide pseudo-rapidity range (−5 < η < 5.5) exploiting different techniques. The production of high transverse moment...

Multiplicity fluctuations in relativistic nuclear collisions: statistical model versus experimental data

Multiplicity distributions of hadrons produced in central nucleus-nucleus collisions are studied within the hadron-resonance gas model in the large volume limit. In the canonical ensemble conservation of three charges (baryon number, electric charge, and strangeness) is enforced. In addition, in the micro-canonical ensemble energy conservation is included. An analytical method is used to accoun...
