Hydrokinetic predictions for femtoscopy scales in A+A collisions in the light of recent ALICE LHC results

Abstract

A study of energy behavior of the pion spectra and interferometry scales is carried out for the top SPS, RHIC and for LHC energies within the hydrokinetic approach. The main mechanisms that lead to the paradoxical, at first sight, dependence of the interferometry scales with an energy growth, in particular, a decrease $R_{out}/R_{side}$ ratio, are exposed. The hydrokinetic predictions for the HBT radii at LHC energies are compared with the recent results of the ALICE experiment.

Based on the talks given at the Sixth Workshop on Particle Correlations and Femtoscopy, BITP, Kiev, September 14 - 18, 2010 and GSI/EMMI Seminar, January 14, 2011
