从相对论重离子碰撞中提取核表面弥散度的过程，受到几何驱动观测量对表面弥散度与固有核形变的交织响应的限制。我们采用逐事件蒙特卡洛Glauber模拟研究该限制，重点关注多粒子关联对固有形变核中Woods–Saxon表面弥散度$a_0$的敏感性。我们系统考察$a_0$与四极、八极形变参数$\beta_2$、$\beta_3$之间的局域关联，确定这些关联如何影响不同观测量约束$a_0$的能力。研究发现，由椭圆几何主导的观测量对四极形变响应强烈，形成局域$a_0$–$\beta_2$简并，大幅限制其对核表面弥散度的敏感性；三角关联对核表面的响应更具独立性，因此保留了$a_0$的额外信息，尽管其敏感性也会受固有形变修饰。将分析扩展至同时存在四极与八极形变的情况显示，局域简并及约束最弱的方向依赖于核构型，表明提取$a_0$的限制无法用单一全局参数关联描述。我们通过多维响应图、局域敏感性、信息几何测度及对所得参数约束的贝叶斯分析量化这些效应，结果阐明了固有多极形变对从相对论重离子碰撞确定核表面弥散度施加的基本限制，并识别出能提供$a_0$更独立信息的多粒子关联。
英文摘要
The extraction of the nuclear surface diffuseness from relativistic heavy ion collisions is limited by the intertwined responses of geometry-driven observables to surface diffuseness and intrinsic nuclear deformation. We investigate this limitation using event-by-event Monte Carlo Glauber simulations, focusing on the sensitivity of multiparticle correlations to the Woods--Saxon surface diffuseness $a_0$ in intrinsically deformed nuclei. We systematically examine the local correlations between $a_0$ and quadrupole and octupole deformation parameters, $β_2$ and $β_3$, and determine how these correlations affect the ability of different observables to constrain $a_0$. We find that observables dominated by elliptic geometry exhibit a strong response to quadrupole deformation, leading to a local $a_0$--$β_2$ degeneracy that substantially limits their sensitivity to the nuclear surface diffuseness. Triangular correlations provide a more independent response to the nuclear surface and therefore retain additional information on $a_0$, although their sensitivity can also be modified by intrinsic deformation. Extending the analysis to simultaneous quadrupole and octupole deformation shows that the local degeneracy and least-constrained directions depend on the nuclear configuration, demonstrating that the limitation on extracting $a_0$ is not described by a single global parameter correlation. We quantify these effects using multidimensional response maps, local sensitivity and information-geometric measures, and a Bayesian analysis of the resulting parameter constraints. The results clarify the fundamental limitations imposed by intrinsic multipole deformation on the determination of nuclear surface diffuseness from relativistic heavy ion collisions and identify multiparticle correlations that provide more independent information on $a_0$.
