Hadron Correlation in Jets on the Near and Away Sides of High-p_T Triggers in Heavy-ion Collisions

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

Correlation between trigger and associated particles in jets produced on near and away sides of high-p_T triggers in heavy-ion collisions is studied. Hadronization of jets on both…

The characterizing variable for critical point in momentum space

Du Jiaxin, Ke Hongwei, Xu Mingmei +1

The possible experimentally observable signal in momentum space for the critical point, which is free from the contamination of statistical fluctuations, is discussed. It is shown…

Direct photon production in d+A and A+A collisions at RHIC

Ben-Wei Zhang, Ivan Vitev

Direct photon production in minimum bias d+Cu and d+Au and central Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at center of mass energies GeV and 200GeV at RHIC is systematically in…

PACIAE Model Predictions for Pb+Pb Collisions at LHC Compared to the Au+Au Collisions at RHIC

Ben-Hao Sa, Dai-Mei Zhou, Bao-Guo Dong +3

The parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE is used to simulate the 0-6, 15-25, and 35-45 % most central Au+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}}=19.6, 62.4, 130, and 200 GeV and the 0-10…

Forward Production of Protons and Pions in Heavy-ion Collisions

Rudolph C. Hwa, Li-Lin Zhu

The problem of forward production of hadrons in heavy-ion collision at RHIC is revisited with modification of the theoretical treatment on the one hand and with the use of new data…

Reexamination for the calculation of elliptic flow and other fourier harmonics

Xiao-Mei Li, Bao-Guo Dong, Yu-Liang Yan +3

We have argued that the azimuthal symmetry and asymmetry components in fourier expansion of particle momentum azimuthal distribution, (n=0, 1, 2, ...), should be calculated a…

Scaling Behavior of Transverse Kinetic Energy Distributions in Au+Au Collisions at GeV

L. L. Zhu, H. Zheng, C. B. Yang

With the experimental data from STAR on the centrality dependence of transverse momentum spectra of pions and protons in Au+Au collisions at , we…

Azimuthal Anisotropy: Ridges, Recombination and Breaking of Quark Number Scaling

Charles B. Chiu, Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

Azimuthal anisotropy is studied by taking into account the ridges created by semi-hard scattering, which is sensitive to the initial spatial configuration in non-central heavy-ion…
