在最高密度的核碰撞中,$v_4$的增强标志着一级相变

The enhancement of $v_4$ in nuclear collisions at the highest densities signals a first order phase transition

Yasushi Nara, Jan Steinheimer, Horst Stoecker

摘要:

在强子输运模型JAM中,研究了在$3 < \sqrt{s_{NN}} < 30$ GeV能量范围内,中-中心Au + Au碰撞中,横向径向流四极矩($v_4$)对束流能量的依赖性对核物质状态方程(EoS)的敏感性.比较了自由强子气体、一级相变和交叉等不同状态方程。在$\sqrt{s_{NN}}\approx 6$ GeV的$v_4$的增强预测的EoS与一阶相变。这种增强的$v_4$流是由$v_2$的增强以及从旁观者粒子的挤出对$v_4$的积极贡献驱动的,所述旁观者粒子由于在冲击的、压缩的核物质中混合了强集体流而变成参与者。

英文摘要:

The beam energy dependence of $v_4$ (the quadrupole moment of the transverse radial flow) is sensitive to the nuclear equation of state (EoS) in mid-central Au + Au collisions at the energy range of $3 < \sqrt{s_{NN}} < 30$ GeV, which is investigated within the hadronic transport model JAM. Different equations of state, namely, a free hadron gas, a first-order phase transition and a crossover are compared. An enhancement of $v_4$ at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}\approx 6$ GeV is predicted for an EoS with a first-order phase transition. This enhanced $v_4$ flow is driven by both the enhancement of $v_2$ as well as the positive contribution to $v_4$ from the squeeze-out of spectator particles which turn into participants due to the admixture of the strong collective flow in the shocked, compressed nuclear matter.
