The evolution of Information entropy components in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

Abstract

Shannon information entropy provides an effective tool to study the evolution process in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The time evolution process of thermodynamic entropy $S_{\mathrm{thermal}}$, multiple entropy $S_{\mathrm{mul}}$, and configuration entropy $S_{\mathrm{conf}}$ at RHIC is studied using the AMPT model to generate central Au-Au collisions. By superimposing the three kinds of information entropy, we can get a more complete information entropy of the system to describe the physical information of the relativistic heavy ion collision. The results show that the four stages of the time evolution process of the system entropy $S$ seem to correspond to the four physical processes in the relativistic heavy ion collision, indicating that the total entropy of the system can reflect the physical information in the relativistic heavy ion collision more accurately.
