Centrality Dependence of Direct Photons in Au+Au Collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV
R. J. Fries, B. Muller, D. K. Srivastava
We calculate the spectra of high energy photons emitted in relativistic Au+Au collisions for various centralities and compare to data recently collected at the Relativistic Heavy I…
Thermal Recombination: Beyond the Valence Quark Approximation
B. Muller, R. J. Fries, S. A. Bass
Quark counting rules derived from recombination models agree well with data on hadron production at intermediate transverse momenta in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. They conve…
Correlated Emission of Hadrons from Recombination of Correlated Partons
R. J. Fries, S. A. Bass, B. Muller
We discuss different sources of hadron correlations in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We show that correlations among partons in a quasi-thermal medium can lead to the correlat…
Heavy Ions at LHC: Theoretical Issues
R. J. Fries, B. Muller
We give a brief overview of our current theoretical understanding of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collision and the properties of super-hot nuclear matter. We focus on several issu…
Hadronization in heavy ion collisions: recombination or fragmentation?
R. J. Fries, B. Muller, C. Nonaka +1
We show that hadron production in relativistic heavy ion collisions at transverse momenta larger than 2 GeV/c can be explained by the competition of two different hadronization mec…
Hadronization in heavy ion collisions: Recombination and fragmentation of partons
R. J. Fries, S. A. Bass, B. Muller +1
We argue that the emission of hadrons with transverse momentum up to about 5 GeV/c in central relativistic heavy ion collisions is dominated by recombination, rather than fragmenta…
