Deciphering the universal scaling of particle transverse momentum spectra in heavy-ion collisions

Xi-Yao Guo, Hua Zheng, Wenchao Zhang +5

We systematically investigate the scaling properties of the transverse momentum spectra for pions, kaons, and protons in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 7.7, 11.5, 14.5, 19.6…
