TY - JOUR A1 - Alba, Paolo A1 - Alberico, Wanda A1 - Bellwied, Rene A1 - Bluhm, Marcus A1 - Mantovani Sarti, Valentina A1 - Nahrgang, Marlene A1 - Ratti, Claudia T1 - Freeze-out conditions from net-proton and net-charge fluctuations at RHIC T2 - Physics Letters B N2 - We calculate ratios of higher-order susceptibilities quantifying fluctuations in the number of net-protons and in the net-electric charge using the Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model. We take into account the effect of resonance decays, the kinematic acceptance cuts in rapidity, pseudo-rapidity and transverse momentum used in the experimental analysis, as well as a randomization of the isospin of nucleons in the hadronic phase. By comparing these results to the latest experimental data from the STAR Collaboration, we determine the freeze-out conditions from net-electric charge and net-proton distributions and discuss their consistency.
