Squeeze-out in relativistic heavy-ion reactions

Journal Article · · Bulletin of the American Physical Society
OSTI ID:374703
The authors have studied the azimuthal distributions of pions and protons with respect to the reaction plane for symmetric systems around the energy of 1 GeV/N. These studies were performed using the EOS TPC at the Bevalac at LBL. Squeeze-out of protons and pions is of interest as a probe of the early stages of the reaction. Evidence is seen for squeeze-out of protons and pions at center-of-mass rapidities. Systematic effects have been observed as a function of transverse momentum for different system sizes and energies.
