Momentum Distributions

The pt distributions of pions, protons, deuterons, tritons, and 3He produced in interactions of 24 GeV/c protons with heavy emulsion nuclei have been experimentally investigated. The dependence of [Formula: see text] on the shower multiplicity, the angle of emission, and on the mass of the particles has been studied. The characteristics of pions have been observed to be similar to those produced in hadron–hadron interactions. It has been concluded that perhaps the pickup process is responsible for the production of heavier fragments and that most of the pions are produced in the first basic nucleon–nucleon collisions.

Freeze Out

We review the chemical and kinetic freeze-out conditions in high energy heavy-ion collisions for AGS, SPS, RHIC, and LHC energies. Chemical freeze-out parameters are obtained using produced particle yields in central collisions while the corresponding kinetic freeze-out parameters are obtained using transverse momentum distributions of produced particles. For chemical freeze-out, different freeze-out scenarios are discussed such as single and double/flavor dependent freeze-out surfaces. Kinetic freeze-out parameters are obtained by doing hydrodynamic inspired blast wave fit to the transverse momentum distributions. The beam energy and centrality dependence of transverse energy per charged particle multiplicity are studied to address the constant energy per particle freeze-out criteria in heavy-ion collisions.

Basic Properties

We would attempt here to understand some properties of the transverse momentum (pT) and rapidity (y) spectra on production of deuteron (d) and antideuteron ([Formula: see text]) in lead–lead ( Pb + Pb ) collisions at 158A GeV recently reported by NA49 Collaboration. Starting from some basic properties of nucleon–nucleon (p + p) reactions for production of secondary proton–antiprotons the cases of production of the composite set of particles, like d and [Formula: see text], would be analyzed. Some ratio-behaviors would also be dealt within the light of the same approaches. It is found that the combination of the models put into use here capture modestly well the trends of the data on some important observables. Some limitations of the approach would also be pointed out in the end.

High Energy Collisions

Transverse momentum distributions of final-state particles produced in soft process in proton-proton (pp) and nucleus-nucleus (AA) collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies are studied by using a multisource thermal model. Each source in the model is treated as a relativistic and quantum ideal gas. Because the quantum effect can be neglected in investigation on the transverse momentum distribution in high energy collisions, we consider only the relativistic effect. The concerned distribution is finally described by the Boltzmann or two-component Boltzmann distribution. Our modeling results are in agreement with available experimental data.

Three isotropic emission fireballs are used to describe the rapidity (or pseudorapidity) and transverse momentum distributions of negatively charged particles produced in nucleus–nucleus collisions at high energy. The calculated results are compared and shown to be in agreement with the experimental data of 16O–Au, 32S–S, and 32S–Ag collisions at 200A GeV. PACS Nos.: 25.75-q, 24.10Pa

Theoretical Predictions

By taking into account the effects of thermal motion, the transverse momentum distributions of identified charged particles produced in nucleus collisions are discussed in the context of a hydrodynamic model including phase transition. A comparison is made between the theoretical predictions and experimental measurements. The theoretical model gives a good description to the data collected in Au–Au collisions at RHIC energy of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]GeV. For Pb–Pb collisions at LHC energy of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]TeV, the model works well up to the transverse momentum of about [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]GeV/c.
