Heavy-ion Physics with Cms
نویسنده
چکیده
This article presents a brief overview of the CMS experiment capabilities to study the hot and dense matter created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The CERN Large Hadron Collider will provide collisions of Pb nuclei at 5.5 TeV per nucleon. The CMS heavy ion group has developed a plethora of physics analyses addressing many important aspects of heavy-ion physics in preparation for a competitive and successful program.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) plans to operate as a heavy ion collider for one month each year starting in 2007. LHC will be capable of accelerating a variety of ions up to beam energies of 7 TeV/charge. The design, peak and three-hour-fill-averaged luminosities are presented in Table 1 along with the maximum center of mass energy[1]. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) [2] experiment is a genera...
متن کاملStudy of heavy ion collisions with the CMS detector
In this presentation, I report on the suitability of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) detector for the study of heavy ion collisions at the CERN LHC. This detector, designed for pp physics, can be used for the search for the phase transition from nuclear matter to a quark-gluon plasma predicted by lattice QCD calculations. In particular, the production of the Υ family mesons, the characteristics...
