33 - medium mass modification and pion spectra
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the π-spectra obtained in 2, 4, 6 and 8A GeV Au–Au collisions within the thermal model. We find that the main features of the data can be well described after we include the pions from the decay of the ∆-resonance with medium mass modification.

Medium Modification of the Pion-pion Interaction at Finite Density
We discuss medium modifications of the unitarized pion-pion interaction in the nuclear medium. We incorporate both the effects of chiral symmetry restoration and the influence of collective nuclear pionic modes originating from the p-wave coupling of the pion to delta-hole configurations. We show in particular that the dropping of the sigma meson mass significantly enhances the low energy struc...
متن کاملPion Broadening and Low-mass Dilepton Production Typeset Using Revt E X 1
We determine mass and transverse momentum spectra of dileptons produced in Pb+Au (158 GeV/u) collisions within a pion annihilation model. A fit to the data requires simultaneous mass reduction and broadening of the in-medium rho propagator. The introduction of a finite pion width, as required within self-consistent approaches to the interacting pion gas, further improves the agreement with the ...
متن کاملSeeing phi meson through the dilepton spectra in heavy-ion collisions
Dilepton spectra from the decay of phi mesons produced in heavy-ion collisions at SIS/GSI energies (∼ 2 GeV/nucleon) are studied in the relativistic transport model. We include phi mesons produced from baryon-baryon, pion-baryon, and kaon-antikaon collisions. The cross sections for the first two processes are obtained from an one-boson-exchange model, while that for the last process is taken to...
متن کاملreveal the in - medium properties of vector mesons ?
Dilepton production from both pion-pion and kaon-antikaon annihilation in heavy-ion collisions is studied using the relativistic transport model. The formation of a rho meson from pion-pion annihilation and a phi meson from kaon-antikaon annihilation, their propagation in the medium, and their decay into dileptons are explicitly treated. Including the medium modifications of the masses and widt...
متن کاملIn Medium Modifications to Ρ from Finite Pion Density Effects and Dilepton Spectrum
The behavior of the pion dispersion relation in a pion medium is strongly modified by the introduction of a finite chemical potential associated to the finite pion number density. Such behavior is particularly important during the hadronic phase of a relativistic heavy-ion collision, between chemical and thermal freeze-out, where the pion number changing processes, driven by the strong interact...
