Coulomb Effects on Charged Kaon Distributions From Vlasov Dynamics

Abstract

We compute the influence of Coulomb effects on the charged kaon distribution at low momentum in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. This is accomplished by solving the Vlasov equation for the kaons in the presence of an expanding, highly charged, fireball.
