Tagging of eta' decay products to analyze chiral restoration

In case of chiral U_A(1) symmetry restoration the mass of the eta' boson (the ninth, would-be Goldstone boson) is decreased, thus its production cross section is heavily enhanced. The eta' decays (through one of its decay channels) into five pions. These pions will not be correlated in terms of Bose-Einsten correlations, thus the production enhancement changes the strength of two-pion correlation functions at low momentum. Preliminary results strongly support the mass decrease of the eta' boson. In this paper we propose a method to select pions coming from eta' decays. We investigate the efficiency of the proposed kinematical cut in several collision systems and energies with several simulators. We prove that our method can be used in all investigeted collision systems.

Initial temperature of the strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma created at RHIC

A 1+3 dimensional solution of relativistic hydrodynamics is analyzed in this paper. Momentum distribution and other observables are calculated from the solution and compared to hadronic measurements from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The solution is compatible with the data, but only the freeze-out point of the evolution is determined. Many equation of states and initial states (initial temperatures) are valid with the same freeze-out distribution, thus the same hadronic observables. The observable that would distinguish between these initial temperatures is momentum distribution of photons, as photons are created throughout the evolution of the fireball created in RHIC collisions. The PHENIX experiment at RHIC measures such data via low invariant mass e+e- pairs. Average temperature from this data is T=221+-23+-18 MeV, while a model calculation with initial temperature 370 MeV agree with the data.

Initial conditions, equations of state and final state in hydrodynamics

In this paper we present properties of relativistic and non-relativistic perfect hydrodynamical models. In particular we show illustrations of the fact that different initial conditions and equations of state can lead to the same hadronic final state. This means that alone from the hadronic observables one cannot determine either of the above, one needs for example penetrating probes that inherit their properties from each timeslice of the evolution of the fireball.

Interplay among the azimuthally dependent HBT radii and the elliptic flow

We present a calculation of the elliptic flow and azimuthal dependence of the correlation radii in the ellipsoidally symmetric generalization of the Buda-Lund model. The elliptic flow is shown to depend only on the flow anisotropy while in case of correlation radii both flow and space anisotropy play an important role in determining their azimuthal oscillation. We also outline a simple procedure for determining the parameters of the model from data.
