Abstract

The program consists of two complementary parts. First, searches for new particles include strange quark matter, as well as strange chiral solitons and multistrange hypernuclei. These and other new phenomena may result from the extreme conditions present in relativistic heavy ion collisions, which is a regime that is still relatively new and untested. Second, measurements will be made of known particles, such as the coalescence production of nuclei and antinuclei. Knowledge of coalescence production is not only crucial to interpreting the limits in strange matter searches, but also is useful in probing the relativistic heavy ion collision process. While data analysis is proceeding efforts will focus on the construction, running, and analysis of a new more precise experiment. The heavy ion program at BNL`s RHIC accelerator will continue. This will be a ``fixed-target`` experiment using a gas jet or pellet target that would extend studies of new particles in the high energy regime offered by this new accelerator.

Technical Report

This document describes the development and progress of our group's research program in high energy heavy ion physics. We are a subset of the Yale experimental high energy physics effort (YAUG group) who became interested in the physics of high energy heavy ions in 1988. Our interest began with the possibility of performing significant searches for strange quark matter. As we learned more about the subject and as we gained experimental experience through our participation in AGS experiment 814, our interests have broadened. Our program has focused on the study of new particles, including (but not exclusively) strange quark matter,more »« less

Hadron Production in Heavy Ion Collisions

Book Ritter, Hans; Xu, Nu

Heavy ion collisions are an ideal tool to explore the QCD phase diagram. The goal is to study the equation of state (EOS) and to search for possible in-medium modifications of hadrons. By varying the collision energy a variety of regimes with their specific physics interest can be studied. At energies of a few GeV per nucleon, the regime where experiments were performed first at the Berkeley Bevalac and later at the Schwer-Ionen-Synchrotron (SIS) at GSI in Darmstadt, we study the equation of state of dense nuclear matter and try to identify in-medium modifications of hadrons. Towards higher energies, themore »« less

Feasibility study of heavy ion physics program at NICA

Journal Article Kekelidze, V.; Kolesnikov, V.; Rogachevsky, O.; ... - Physics of Particles and Nuclei

There are strong experimental and theoretical evidences that in collisions of heavy ions at relativistic energies nuclear matter undergoes a phase transition to the deconfined state—Quark Gluon Plasma. The caused energy region of such transition was not found at high energy at SPS and RHIC and search for this energy is shifted to lower energies, which will be covered by the future NICA (Dubna), FAIR (Darmstadt) facilities and BES II at RHIC. Fixed target and collider experiments at the NICA facility will work at the energy range from a few AGeV up to √( S{sub NN}) = 11 GeV GeVmore »« less
