Kinetic Freeze-Out Temperature and Transverse Flow Velocity in Au-Au Collisions at RHIC-BES Energies

By using the method of data-driven reanalysis, the midrapidity transverse momentum pT spectra of charged hadrons (π+, K+, and p) produced in central and peripheral gold-gold (Au-Au) collisions from the Beam Energy Scan (BES) program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are fitted by using t...

Description
Summary:By using the method of data-driven reanalysis, the midrapidity transverse momentum pT spectra of charged hadrons (π+, K+, and p) produced in central and peripheral gold-gold (Au-Au) collisions from the Beam Energy Scan (BES) program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are fitted by using the blast-wave model with the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics. The model results are in agreement with the experimental data measured by the STAR Collaboration at the RHIC-BES energies. We observe that the kinetic freeze-out temperature T0, transverse flow velocity βT, mean transverse momentum pT, and initial temperature Ti increase with collision energy as well as with event centrality.
