Publications and Research

The statistical hadronization model successfully describes the yields of hadrons and light nuclei from central heavy-ion collisions over a wide range of energies. It is a simple and efficient phenomenological framework in which the relative yields for very high energy collisions are essentially determined by a single model parameter—the chemical freeze-out temperature. Recent measurements of yields of hadrons and light nuclei covering over nine orders of magnitudes from the ALICE collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider were described by the model with remarkable accuracy with a chemical freeze-out temperature of 156.5 ± 1.5 MeV. A key physical question is whether …


Measurement Of Two-Particle Correlations With Respect To Second- And Third-Order Event Planes In Au + Au Collisions At √Snn = 200 Gev, Donald Isenhower, Rusty Towell May 2019

Engineering and Physics

We present measurements of azimuthal correlations of charged hadron pairs in √sNN=200 GeV Au+Au collisions for the trigger and associated particle transverse-momentum ranges of 14GeV/c) correlations is suppressed compared with that of correlations measured in p+p collisions. At the lowest associated particle pT(0.5
