Constraining freeze-out with yields and fluctuations
Giorgio Torrieri, Sangyong Jeon, Johann Rafelski
We show that the simultaneous measurement of yields and fluctuations in heavy ion collisions is capable of falsifying and constraining the statistical hadronization model. We show…
Deconfinement energy threshold: analysis of hadron yields at 11.6 A GeV
Jean Letessier, Johann Rafelski, Giorgio Torrieri
We analyze the hadron yields obtained at the AGS in the range 11--11.6 A GeV and discuss strategies to identify possible deconfinement at this energy scale. These include considera…
Hadron resonance probes of QGP
Giorgio Torrieri, Johann Rafelski
We discuss the indirect and direct role of the short-lived resonances as probes of QGP freeze-out process. The indirect effect is the distortion of stable single particle yields an…
Hadron production in Pb-Pb collisions at 158A GeV
Johann Rafelski, Jean Letessier
A Fermi statistical model analysis of hadron abundances and spectra obtained in several relativistic heavy ion collision experiments is utilized to characterize a particle source.…
Relativistic Quark Physics
Johann Rafelski
We present a brief survey of the development of nuclear physics towards relativistic quark physics. This is followed by a thorough discussion of the quest for the observation of th…
