光子与相对论麦克斯韦分布电子散射的能谱角度谱研究

光子与相对论麦克斯韦分布电子散射的描述及能谱角度谱计算非常复杂且费时.本文提出了一种光子与相对论麦克斯韦速度分布电子散射的蒙特卡罗(MC)模拟方法,该方法能够细致模拟高温等离子体中任意能量光子与任意温度电子的Compton和逆Compton散射问题.对于散射后光子的能谱和角度谱参数,可以根据电子温度抽样若干不同状态的电子,分别模拟其与光子发生散射,可以得到各次散射后的光子能量和偏转角度,取统计平均后的结果即可获得该光子与该温度电子散射的能谱和角度谱分布.根据该方法编写了光子与相对论电子散射MC模拟程序,开展了高温全电离等离子体中光子与相对论电子散射的能谱角度谱计算和分析,分析结果显示:热运动电子将展宽出射光子能谱,且低能光子与高温电子散射后的蓝移现象明显;出射光子的角度谱很复杂,其决定于入射光子能量、出射光子能量及电子温度.基于该方法计算并以数表形式给出的光子-相对论电子散射能谱角度谱数据,可以供辐射输运数值模拟程序使用.

光电效应和康普顿效应──光子碰撞的两种不同结果

频率为v的电磁波与物质的作用,可以看成是能量为hv的光子与原子碰撞的过程.光子碰撞时,有些引起光电效应,光子的能量hv被原子吸收,转移给某个电子,该电子便脱离原子,形成一个自由电子和一个正离子,而有些则发生康普顿效应,光子被原子内较松散的外层电子所散射,它的飞行方向偏转.为什么同是光子碰撞过程,却会引起截然不同的两种效应呢? 实际上,光子碰撞引起的效应,并不限于这两种.除了光电效应和康普顿散射外,还可能会发生其他一些更复杂的现象.例如,光子可能被原子核散射(核致康普顿效应);它可能被原子核吸收,使核分裂(核的光电效应);光子可…

高能重离子超边缘碰撞中极化光致反应

本文旨在对近期高能重离子超边缘碰撞中光致产生过程的研究做一个简要综述.相对论性重离子激发的超强电磁场可以被近似认为是一束极高亮度的等效相干光子束流.本文主要讨论两类等效光子参与的高能产生过程:准实光子融合产生轻子对即Breit-Wheeler过程,以及等效光子与原子核内的胶子物质相互作用导致的矢量介子衍射产生过程.这两类过程是研究重离子超边缘碰撞的传统课题,本文主要侧重于讨论碰撞参数依赖效应与末态软光子重求和效应.另一方面,最近一系列研究揭示了相对论重离子所激发的准实光子是高度线性极化的,其极化方向平行于光子横动量方向;并指出可以通过重离子超边缘碰撞中轻子对产生过程的cos 4?方位角不对称来测量光子的线偏振度.这一理论预言随后被SATR合作组的测量所证实.伴随这一新的理论与实验进展,线性极化光子束流同时也给我们提供了一种新颖的实验手段,用来研究量子色动力学唯象学.如线偏振准实光子可导致矢量介子衍射产生过程的各种方位角不对称,通过研究这些方位角不对称可以让我们更深入地理解高能散射过程的双缝干涉效应、库仑-核反应的干涉过程,以及抽取光子维格纳函数等.本文将详述这些效应并讨论未来的理论与实...     

Physics around the QCD (tri)critical endpoint and new challenges for femtoscopy

On the basis of exactly solvable models with the tricritical and critical endpoints I discuss the physical mechanism of endpoints formation which is similar to the usual liquids. It is demonstrated that the necessary condition for the transformation of the 1-st order deconfinement phase transition into the 2-nd order phase transition at the (tri)critical endpoint is the vanishing of surface tension coefficient of large/heavy QGP bags. Using the novel model of the confinement phenomenon I argue that the physical reason for the cross-over appearance at low baryonic densities is the negative value of QGP bag surface tension coefficient. This implies the existence of highly non-spherical or, probably, even fractal surfaces of large and heavy bags at and above the cross-over, which, perhaps, can be observed via some correlations. The model with the tricritical endpoint predicts that at the deconfinement transition line the volume (mass) distribution of large (heavy) QGP bags acquires the power law form at the endpoint only, while in the model with the critical endpoint such a power law exists inside the mixed phase. The role of finite width of QGP bags is also discussed.     

Large momenta fluctuations of charm quarks in the Quark-Gluon Plasma<Superscript>⋆</Superscript>

We show that large fluctuations of D-mesons kinetic-energy (or momentum) distributions might be a signature of a phase transition to the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). In particular, a jump in the variance of the momenta or kinetic energy, as a function of a control parameter (temperature or Fermi energy at finite baryon densities) might be a signature for a first-order phase transition to the QGP. This behavior is completely consistent with the order parameter defined for a system of interacting quarks both at zero temperature (and finite baryon densities) or at finite temperatures which shows a jump in correspondence with a first-order phase transition to the QGP. The J/Ψ displays exactly the same behavior of the order parameter and of the variance of the D-mesons. We discuss implications for relativistic heavy-ion collisions within the framework of a transport model and possible hints for experimental search.     

The thermodynamic properties of weakly interacting quark-gluon plasma via the one-gluon exchange interaction

The thermodynamic properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), as well as its phase diagram, are calculated as a function of baryon density (chemical potential) and temperature. The QGP is assumed to be composed of the light quarks only, i.e., the up and down quarks, which interact weakly, and the gluons which are treated as they are free. The interaction between quarks is considered in the framework of the one gluon exchange model which is obtained from the Fermi liquid picture. The bag model is used, with fixed bag pressure (B)for the nonperturbative part, and the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) coupling is assumed to be constant, i.e., with no dependence on the temperature or the baryon density. The effect of weakly interacting quarks on the QGP phase diagram are shown and discussed. It is demonstrated that the one-gluon exchange interaction for the massless quarks has considerable effect on the QGP phase diagram and it causes the system to reach to the confined phase at the smaller baryon densities and temperatures. The pressure of excluded volume hadron gas model is also used to find the transition phase diagram. Our results depend on the values of bag pressure and the QCD coupling constant. The latter does not have a dramatic effect on our calculations. Finally, we compare our results with the thermodynamic properties of strange quark matter and the lattice QCD prediction for the QGP transition critical temperature.     

Quark-hadron phase transition and strangeness conservation constraints

The implications of the strangeness conservation in a hadronic resonance gas (HRG) on the expected phase transition to the quark gluon plasma (QGP) are investigated. It is assumed that under favourable conditions a first order hadron-quark matter phase transition may occur in the hot hadronic matter such as those produced in the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at CERN and BNL. It is however shown that the criteria of strict strangeness conservation in the HRG may not permit the occurrence of a strict first order equilibrium quark-hadron phase transition unlike a previous study. This emerges as a consequence of the application of a realistic equation of state (EOS) for the HRG and QGP phases, which account for the finite-size effect arising from the short range hard-core hadronic repulsion in the HRG phase and the perturbative QCD interactions in the QGP phase. For a first order hadron-quark matter phase transition to occur one will therefore require large fluctuations in the critical thermal parameters, which might arise due to superheating, supercooling or other nonequlibrium effects. We also discuss a scenario proposed earlier, leading to a possible strangeness separation process during hadronization.

Hard thermal photon production in relativistic heavy ion collisions

The recent status of hard thermal photon production in relativistic heavy ion collisions is reviewed and the current rates are presented with emphasis on corrected bremsstrahlung processes in the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) and quark–hadron duality. Employing Bjorken hydrodynamics with an EOS supporting the phase transition from QGP to hot hadron gas (HHG), thermal photon spectra are computed. For SPS 158 GeV Pb + Pb collisions, comparison with other theoretical results and the WA98 direct photon data indicates significant contributions due to prompt photons. Extrapolating the presented approach to RHIC and LHC experiments, predictions of the thermal photon spectrum show a QGP outshining the HHG in the high-p_T-region.     

Direct hadron production in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions

Hadrons emitted by the pre-surface layer of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) before the phase transition into a hadronic gas are considered as possible sources of direct information about QGP. It is shown that if QGP is created in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, then these hadrons strongly contribute at soft p_t at SpS energy and dominate up to an order of magnitude at LHC energy.     

Quark—Gluon Plasma in Equilibrium State

The thermodynamic potential of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in equilibrium state is calculated by finite temperature QCD. The pressure correction of QGP and the critical temperature correction of deconfinement phase transition of hadron are discussed.     

Search for Exotic Strange Dibaryon in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The exotic strange dibaryon particle (ΩΩ)0 with S = -6 can be produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The yields of this kind of exotic strange dibaryon particles can increase signitlcantly soon as the formation of QGP does exhibit after the collision. If there is no phase transition after the collision, the upper bound of the production of this diomega can be estimated from the free hadronic gas model for nuclear matter. The relative yield ratio of diomega to deuteron is less than 0.000205, this means that if there is no QGP creation it is difficult to observe the production of diomega in relativistic heavy ion collisions.     

Influence of shear viscosity of quark-gluon plasma on elliptic flow in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions

We investigate the influence of a temperature-dependent shear viscosity over entropy density ratio η/s on the transverse momentum spectra and elliptic flow of hadrons in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. We find that the elliptic flow in √S(NN)=200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC is dominated by the viscosity in the hadronic phase and in the phase transition region, but largely insensitive to the viscosity of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). At the highest LHC energy, the elliptic flow becomes sensitive to the QGP viscosity and insensitive to the hadronic viscosity.     

EOS for a QGP with a temperature and baryon chemical potential dependent bag pressure

We develop an equation of state (EOS) for the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) involving the temperature and baryon chemical potential dependent bag pressure arising due to the entropy and baryon number conservation at the phase boundary together with the Gibbs’ construction for an equilibrium phase transition. We show that the bag pressure thus obtained yields a decreasing behaviour with the increasing baryon chemical potential at a fixed temperature. Further consequences of the modified bag pressure are discussed.
