Pion Mass Shift and the Kinetic Freeze Out Process
arXiv:0901.0499 · doi:10.1140/epja/i2008-10717-0
Abstract
The kinetic Freeze Out process of a pion gas through a finite layer with time-like normal is considered. The pion gas is described by a Boltzmann gas with elastic collisions among the pions. Within this model, the impact of the in-medium pion mass modification on the Freeze Out process is studied. A marginal change of the Freeze Out variables temperature and flow velocity and an insignificant modification of the frozen out particle distribution function has been found.
