Strange Resonance Production: Probing Chemical and Thermal Freeze-out in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The production and the observability of $Λ(1520)$, $K^0(892)$ $Φ$ and $Δ(1232)$ hadron resonances in central Pb+Pb collisions at 160 AGeV is addressed. The rescattering probabilities of the resonance decay products in the systems evolution are studied. Strong changes in the reconstructable particle yields and spectra between chemical and thermal freeze-out are estimated. Abundances and spectra of reconstructable resonances are predicted.

Study of system- size effects in multi- fragmentation using Quantum Molecular Dynamics model

We report, for the first time, the dependence of the multiplicity of different fragments on the system size employing a quantum molecular dynamics model. This dependence is extracted from the simulations of symmetric collisions of Ca+Ca, Ni+Ni, Nb+Nb, Xe+Xe, Er+Er, Au+Au and U+U at incident energies between 50 A MeV and 1 A GeV. We find that the multiplicity of different fragments scales with the size of the system which can be parameterized by a simple power law.

Kaon production at subthreshold and threshold energies

We summarize what we have learnt about the kaon production in nucleus-nucleus collisions in the last decade. We will address three questions: a) Is the $K^+$ production sensitive to the nuclear equation of state? b) How can it happen that at the same excess energy the same number of $K^+$ and $K^-$ are produced in heavy ion collisions although the elementary cross section in pp collisions differs by orders of magnitudes? and c) Why kaons don't flow?

Dynamical fragment production in central collisions Xe(50 A.MeV)+Sn

For central collisions Xe(50 A.MeV)+Sn we compared experimental data from the INDRA detector with QMD simulations. Theory as well as experiment show a clear binary character of the fragment emission even for very central collisions. From the time evolution of the reaction (QMD simulation) we could built up a scenario for the dynamical emission of fragments
