Source breakup dynamics in Au+Au Collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV via three-dimensional two-pion source imaging

PHENIX Collaboration, S. Afanasiev

A three-dimensional (3D) correlation function obtained from mid-rapidity, low pT pion pairs in central Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV is studied. The extracted model-indepe…

Finite-size scaling in extreme statistics

G. Gyorgyi, N. R. Moloney, K. Ozogany +1

We study the convergence and shape correction to the limit distributions of extreme values due to the finite size (FS) of data sets. A renormalization method is introduced for the…

Curvature of the phase transition line in the mu-T plane

Zoltán Fodor, Christa Guse, Sándor D. Katz +1

We determined the curvature of the phase transition line in the mu-T plane using a Taylor expansion in mu. The Polyakov loop and the strange quark number susceptibility were measur…

Recent Result in QCD Thermodynamics from the Lattice

Z. Fodor

Recent results on QCD thermodynamics are presented. The nature of the T>0 transition is determined, which turns out to be an analytic cross-over. The absolute scale for this transi…

Study of GEM-like detectors with resistive electrodes for RICH applications

A. G. Agocs, A. Di Mauro, A. Ben David +4

We have developed prototypes of GEM-like detectors with resistive electrodes to be used as RICH photodetectors equipped with CsI photocathodes. The main advantages of these detecto…
