Thermal-model-based characterization of heavy-ion-collision systems at chemical freeze-out

Jamie M. Karthein, Paolo Alba, Valentina Mantovani-Sarti +6

We investigate the chemical freeze-out in heavy-ion collisions (HICs) and the impact of the hadronic spectrum on thermal model analyses. Detailed knowledge of the hadronic spectrum…

Chemical freeze-out parameters of net-kaons in heavy-ion collisions

Paolo Alba, Rene Bellwied, Valentina Mantovani-Sarti +5

We study chemical freeze-out parameters for heavy-ion collisions by performing two different thermal analyses. We analyze results from thermal fits for particle yields, as well as,…

Influence of hadronic resonances on the chemical freeze-out in heavy-ion collisions

P. Alba, V. Mantovani Sarti, J. Noronha-Hostler +4

Detailed knowledge of the hadronic spectrum is still an open question, which has phenomenological consequences on the study of heavy-ion collisions. A previous lattice QCD study co…

Determination of Chemical Freeze-out Parameters from Net-kaon Fluctuations at RHIC

Jamie M. Stafford, Paolo Alba, Rene Bellwied +5

We calculate the mean-over-variance ratio of the net-kaon fluctuations in the Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) Model for the five highest energies of the RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) for…

van der Waals Interactions and Hadron Resonance Gas: Role of resonance widths modeling on conserved charges fluctuations

Volodymyr Vovchenko, Paolo Alba, Mark I. Gorenstein +1

The quantum van der Waals (QvdW) extension of the ideal hadron resonance gas (HRG) model which includes the attractive and repulsive interactions between baryons -- the QvdW-HRG mo…

Role of repulsive interactions in the interplay with missing strange resonances

Paolo Alba

The standard implementation of the HRG model has been shown to be unable to describe all the available data on QCD matter. Here we show the balance of repulsive and attractive hadr…
