We present an analysis of proton and charged pion transverse momentum spectra ofp+Cuandp+Pbreactions at 3, 8, and 15 GeV/cin the framework of a multisource thermal model. The spectra are compared closely with the experimental data of HARP-CDP at all angular intervals. The result shows that the widths of the particle distributions in bothp+Cuandp+Pbcollisions decrease with increasing the angle for the same incident momentum.

In Tsallis statistics, we investigate charged pion and proton production forpCu andpPb interactions at 3, 8, and 15 GeV/c. Two versions of Tsallis distribution are implemented in a multisource thermal model. A comparison with experimental data of the HARP-CDP group shows that they both can reproduce the transverse momentum spectra, but the improved form gives a better description. It is also found that the difference betweenqandq′is small when the temperatureT = T′for the same incident momentum and angular interval, and the value ofqis greater thanq′in most cases.

In the current research paper, we investigated the dependence of [Formula: see text] spectra of [Formula: see text] mesons on centrality of collision and different rapidity [Formula: see text] range. These negative pions are produced in Alpha–Carbon collisions at a momentum of 4.2 A GeV/c. We used Boltzmann and Hagedorn functions for one and two temperature fitting, of transverse momentum spectra obtained from experimental data and Model (Quark Gluon String Model, QGSM) data. By fitting these mathematical functions, we analyzed the change in shape of slopes of [Formula: see text] spectra. The fitting results for spectral temperatures were consistently larger (both in the experiment and QGSM) for the [Formula: see text] spectra of negative pions produced in range of mid-rapidity in comparison with those produced in fragmentation regions of colliding nuclei. It was also observed that extracted spectral temperatures from experimental data have a weak dependence on the collision centrality. The pion spectra can be described nicely by fitting two temperature functions for the experimental [Formula: see text] spectra for whole range and for the interval [Formula: see text]. In the [Formula: see text] range of [Formula: see text], one temperature functions were found sufficient for fitting the experimental [Formula: see text] spectra. The extracted temperatures from experimental data were found more sensitive to the fitting range of [Formula: see text], in contrast with temperatures obtained from QGSM data.

The experimental transverse momentum spectra of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons, produced at midrapidity in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV, central (0–5%) and peripheral (60–80%) Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV, central (0–5%), semicentral (40–50%) and peripheral (80–90%) Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV, measured by ALICE collaboration, were analyzed using the Tsallis distribution function as well as Hagedorn formula with the embedded transverse flow. To exclude the influence (on the results) of different available fitting [Formula: see text] ranges in the analyzed collisions, we compare the results obtained from combined (simultaneous) fits of midrapidity spectra of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons with the above theoretical model functions using the identical fitting [Formula: see text] ranges in [Formula: see text] as well as Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV. Using the combined fits with the thermodynamically consistent Tsallis distribution as well as the simple Tsallis distribution without thermodynamical description, it is obtained that the global temperature [Formula: see text] and non-extensivity parameter [Formula: see text] slightly increase (consistently for all the particle types) with an increase in center-of-mass (c.m.) energy [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] collisions from 2.76 TeV to 5.02 TeV, indicating that the more violent and faster [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV result in a smaller degree of thermalization (higher degree of non-equilibrium) compared to that in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV. The [Formula: see text] values for pions and kaons proved to be very close to each other, whereas [Formula: see text] for protons and antiprotons proved to be significantly lower than that for pions and kaons, that is [Formula: see text]. The results of the combined fits using Hagedorn formula with the embedded transverse flow are consistent with practically no (zero) transverse (radial) flow in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV. Using Hagedorn formula with the embedded transverse flow, it is obtained that the value of the (average) transverse flow velocity increases and the temperature [Formula: see text] decreases with an increase in collision centrality in Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV, which is in good agreement with the results of the combined Boltzmann–Gibbs blast-wave fits to the particle spectra in Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV in recent works of ALICE collaboration. The temperature [Formula: see text] parameter, which approximates the kinetic freeze-out temperature, was shown to coincide in central (0–5%) Pb[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] and 5.02 TeV, which implies, taking into account the results of our previous analysis, that kinetic freeze-out temperature stays practically constant in central heavy-ion collisions in [Formula: see text] GeV energy range.

We compare two types of Tsallis distribution, that is, with and without thermodynamical description, using the experimental data from the STAR, PHENIX, ALICE, and CMS Collaborations on the rapidity and energy dependence of the transverse momentum spectra inp+pcollisions. Both of them can fit the particle spectra well. We show that the Tsallis distribution with thermodynamical description gives lower temperatures than the ones without it. The extra factormT(transverse mass) in the Tsallis distribution with thermodynamical description plays an important role in the discrepancies between the two types of Tsallis distribution. But for the heavy particles, the choice to usemTorET(transverse energy) in the Tsallis distribution becomes more crucial.

Coulomb effects on charged pion transverse momentum spectra measured in Au+Au collisions at RHIC-BES energies are investigated. From these spectra the π-/π+ ratios as a function of transverse momentum are obtained and used to extract the “Coulomb kick”, pc (a momentum change due to the Coulomb interaction), and initial pion ratio for three different collision energies and various centrality classes. The Coulomb kick shows a decrease with the increase of beam energy and a clear centrality dependence, with larger values for the most central collisions. The results are connected with the kinetic freeze-out dynamics.

The transverse momentum spectra of charged pions, kaons, and protons produced at mid-rapidity in central nucleus–nucleus (AA) collisions at high energies are analyzed by considering particles to be created from two participant partons, which are assumed to be contributors from the collision system. Each participant (contributor) parton is assumed to contribute to the transverse momentum by a Tsallis-like function. The contributions of the two participant partons are regarded as the two components of transverse momentum of the identified particle. The experimental data measured in high-energy AA collisions by international collaborations are studied. The excitation functions of kinetic freeze-out temperature and transverse flow velocity are extracted. The two parameters increase quickly from ≈3 to ≈10 GeV (exactly from 2.7 to 7.7 GeV) and then slowly at above 10 GeV with the increase of collision energy. In particular, there is a plateau from near 10 GeV to 200 GeV in the excitation function of kinetic freeze-out temperature.

With the framework of the multisource thermal model, we analyze the experimental transverse momentum spectra of various jets produced in different collisions at high energies. Two energy sources, a projectile participant quark and a target participant quark, are considered. Each energy source (each participant quark) is assumed to contribute to the transverse momentum distribution to be the TP-like function, i.e., a revised Tsallis–Pareto-type function. The contribution of the two participant quarks to the transverse momentum distribution is then the convolution of two TP-like functions. The model distribution can be used to fit the experimental spectra measured by different collaborations. The related parameters such as the entropy index-related, effective temperature, and revised index are then obtained. The trends of these parameters are useful to understand the characteristic of high energy collisions.

The experimental transverse momentum spectra of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons, produced at midrapidity in inelastic [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], 5.02, and 7 TeV, measured by ALICE collaboration, are analyzed systematically using the thermodynamically consistent Tsallis distribution function as well as Hagedorn function with the embedded transverse flow. To compare directly the results obtained from combined (simultaneous) fits with the above theoretical model functions of midrapidity spectra of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], 5.02, and 7 TeV, we use the optimal identical fitting [Formula: see text] ranges [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], 5.02, and 7 TeV. The parameter [Formula: see text] increases consistently for all the particle species with increasing [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] collisions from 2.76 to 5.02 TeV, remaining practically constant within fit errors in the collision energy range [Formula: see text] TeV, suggesting probably a saturation and limiting behavior of the [Formula: see text] value in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV. Approximate equality of the extracted nonextensivity parameter [Formula: see text] for the pions and kaons ([Formula: see text]) and relation [Formula: see text] are obtained in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], 5.02, and 7 TeV. Very negligible transverse (radial) flow velocity (consistent with zero value within the fit errors) is obtained in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], 5.02, and 7 TeV from fitting the [Formula: see text] distributions of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons with the Hagedorn formula with the embedded transverse flow in the selected optimal identical [Formula: see text] ranges as well as in the full measured [Formula: see text] ranges.

The UrQMD transport model, version 3.4, is used to study the new experimental data on total yields, rapidity distributions and transverse momentum spectra of π±, K±, p and $\bar p$ produced in inelastic p + p interactions at SPS energies, recently published by the NA61/SHINE Collaboration. The comparison of model predictions to these new measurements is presented as a function of collision energy. In addition, we compare with the experimental data the results on kaon-over-pion multiplicity ratio and the inverse slope parameter of negative kaons produced at midrapidity. A complicated pattern of discrepancies between the experimental data and the UrQMD transport model is apparent. We conclude that new experimental data analyzed in this contribution still constitute a challenge for the present version of the model.

We find the distributions of shower partons initiated by heavy quarks c and b by studying the fragmentation functions in the framework of the recombination model. The transverse momentum spectra of heavy flavored mesons are predicted with these distributions. We find that the contribution from the recombination of thermal-shower partons is an important part in the total spectrum for the mesons. We predict the heavy flavored meson productions for different centralities with the heavy quark fugacities fitted by the experimental data of J/ψ transverse momentum spectra in Au+Au collisions.
