Experiments at the CERN SPS: first signals of deconfinement
Federico Antinori, Marek Gazdzicki, Tapan K. Nayak +6
Heavy-ion experiments at the CERN SPS began in the mid-1980s to study nuclear matter at extreme temperatures and densities. The program started with light ions, such as oxygen and…
Strangeness enhancements at central rapidity in 40 A GeV/c Pb-Pb collisions
The NA57 Collaboration, F. Antinori
Results are presented on neutral kaon, hyperon and antihyperon production in Pb-Pb and p-Be interactions at 40 GeV/c per nucleon. The enhancement pattern follows the same hierarchy…
Expansion dynamics of Pb-Pb collisions at 40 A GeV/c viewed by negatively charged hadrons
The NA57 Collaboration
In this paper we present results on transverse mass spectra and Hanbury-Brown and Twiss correlation functions of negatively charged hadrons, which are expected to be mostly negativ…
Transverse dynamics of Pb-Pb collisions at 40 A GeV/c viewed by strange hadrons
The NA57 Collaboration
The transverse mass spectra of K0s, Lambda, Xi and Omega particles produced in Pb-Pb collisions at 40 A GeV/c have been studied for a sample of events corresponding to the most cen…
Central-to-peripheral nuclear modification factors in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt{s_NN} = 17.3 GeV
NA57 Collaboration
We present central-to-peripheral nuclear modification factors, R_CP, for the p_T distributions of K^0_S, Lambda, Anti-Lambda, and negatively charged particles, measured at central…
Energy dependence of hyperon production in nucleus-nucleus collisions at SPS
The NA57 Collaboration
A measurement of strange baryon and antibaryon production in Pb-Pb collisions has been carried out by the NA57 experiment at the CERN SPS, with 40 and 158 A GeV/c beam momentum. Re…
