The transverse energy per charged particle estimates in the framework of a statistical model

Abstract

The transverse energies and the charged particle multiplicities at midrapidity as well as their ratio, $d{E}_T/d\eta {\mid }_{mid}/d{N}_{ch}/d\eta {|}_{mid}$, are evaluated in a statistical model with expansion for the wide range of heavy-ion collisions, from AGS to RHIC at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV. Full description of decays of hadron resonances is applied in calculations of both $d{E}_T/d\eta {|}_{mid}$ and $d{N}_{ch}/d\eta {|}_{mid}$. The predictions of the model at the freeze-out parameters, established independently from observed particle yields and $p_T$ spectra, agree well with the experimental data.
