Abstract
We study the details and time dependence of particle production in nuclear collisions at a fixed target beam energy of Elab = 1.76A GeV with the UrQMD transport model.We find that the previously proposed production mechanisms for multistrange hadrons φ and are possible due to secondary interactions of incoming nuclei of the projectile and target with already created nuclear resonances, while the Fermi momenta of the nuclei play only a minor role. We also show how the centrality dependence of these particle multiplicities can be used to confirm the proposed mechanism, as it strongly depends on the number of participants in the reaction. Furthermore we investigate the time dependence of particle production in collisions of Ca + Ca at this beam energy, in order to understand the origins of the apparent chemical equilibration of the measured particle yields.We find that indeed the light hadron yields appear to be in equilibrium already from the very early stage of the collision, while in fact no local equilibration, through multicollision processes, takes place. The apparent equilibrium is reached only through the decay of the resonances according to available phase space.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
