Localized Charged-Neutral Fluctuations in 158 A GeV Pb+Pb Collisions

WA98 Collaboration, M. M. Aggarwal, A. Agnihotri +1

First results on the measurement of localized fluctuations in the multiplicity of charged particles and photons produced in central 158 A GeV Pb+Pb collisions are presented. The ch…

Centrality Dependence of Charged Particle Multiplicity in Au-Au Collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=130 GeV

PHENIX Collaboration, K. Adcox

We present results for the charged-particle multiplicity distribution at mid-rapidity in Au - Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=130 GeV measured with the PHENIX detector at RHIC. For the…

Kaon production at subthreshold and threshold energies

Jörg Aichelin, Christoph Hartnack

We summarize what we have learnt about the kaon production in nucleus-nucleus collisions in the last decade. We will address three questions: a) Is the production sensitive t…

Initial Condition for QGP Evolution from NEXUS

H. J. Drescher, F. M. Liu, S. Ostapchenko +2

We recently proposed a new approach to high energy nuclear scattering, which treats the initial stage of heavy ion collisions in a sophisticated way. We are able to calculate macro…

Enhanced Strange Particle Yields - Signal of a Phase of Massless Particles ?

Sven Soff, D. Zschiesche, M. Bleicher +8

The yields of strange particles are calculated with the UrQMD model for p,Pb(158 AGeV)Pb collisions and compared to experimental data. The yields are enhanced in central collisions…

Classical Yang-Mills Vacua on : Explicit Constructions

K. G. Selivanov, A. V. Smilga

Flat connections for unitary gauge groups on a 3--torus with twisted boundary conditions as well as recently discovered periodic nontrivial flat connections with ``nondiagonalizabl…
