我们能从粒子比率的波动中学到什么?

What can we learn from fluctuations of particle ratios?

Giorgio Torrieri

摘要:

以$K/π$涨落为例,解释了比值的涨落如何限制和证伪重离子碰撞中粒子产生的统计模型。我们定义了一个观测能够确定的统计模型,如果有的话,支配冻结出超相对论重离子碰撞。我们计算了这个观察到的$K/π$波动,并表明,它应该是相同的RHIC和LHC能量,以及独立的中心性,如果大正则统计模型是一个适当的描述和化学平衡适用。我们描述了这种标度的变化,从这种情况下的偏差,如轻夸克化学不平衡,奇怪的夸克过饱和和局部守恒(正则系综)奇怪的夸克。我们还介绍了一个类似的观察能力,连同公布的$K^*/K$测量,确定是否相互作用的强子气相之间的热和化学冻结的系统,并确定其持续时间和强子化学的影响。

英文摘要:

We explain how fluctuations of ratios can constrain and falsify the statistical model of particle production in heavy ion collisions, using $K/π$ fluctuations as an example. We define an observable capable of determining which statistical model, if any, governs freeze-out in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. We calculate this observable for $K/π$ fluctuations, and show that it should be the same for RHIC and LHC energies, as well as independent of centrality, if the Grand-Canonical statistical model is an appropriate description and chemical equilibrium applies. We describe variations of this scaling for deviations from this scenario, such as light quark chemical non-equilibrium, strange quark over-saturation and local conservation (canonical ensemble) for strange quarks. We also introduce a similar observable capable, together with the published $K^*/K$ measurement, of ascertaining if an interacting hadron gas phase governs the system between thermal and chemical freeze-out, and of ascertaining its duration and impact on hadronic chemistry.
