Hadronic matter compressibility from event-by-event analysis of heavy-ion collisions

arXiv:nucl-th/9712030 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(98)00492-4

Abstract

We propose a method to measure the hadronic matter compressibility by means of the event-by-event analysis of heavy-ion collisions at high energies. The method, which utilizes the thermodynamical relation between the compressibility and the particle number fluctuations, requires a simultaneous measurement of the particle source size, temperature and particle multiplicity.
