We discuss the effects of the final hadronic state, in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions, on hadronic resonance properties and measurable production rates. In particular we will compare our results with recent ALICE data on resonance production. We show that the hadronic phase of the system evolution has a considerable impact on the measured resonance ratios and pT spectra. We also discuss some of the remaining uncertainties in the model and how they may be addressed in future studies.
Formation of hypermatter and hypernuclei within transport models in relativistic ion collisions
(2015)
Within a combined approach we investigate the main features of the production of hyper-fragments in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The formation of hyperons is modeled within the UrQMD and HSD transport codes. To describe the hyperon capture by nucleons and nuclear residues a coalescence of baryons (CB) model was developed. We demonstrate that the origin of hypernuclei of various masses can be explained by typical baryon interactions, and that it is similar to processes leading to the production of conventional nuclei. At high beam energies we predict a saturation of the yields of all hyper-fragments, therefore, this kind of reactions can be studied with high yields even at the accelerators of moderate relativistic energies.
Evidence for hydrodynamical flow in AA or in pA collisons is to a large extent obtained from the observation of identified hadrons, such as pions, kaons, and protons. But much more information in particular about the late stage can be obtained by also considering unstable particles, which decay during the lifetime of the expanding hadronic matter. We therefore started to use EPOS3, a unified approach for pp, pA, and AA scattering, to investigate the production of stable and unstable particles.
