Global features of relativistic heavy ion collisions at SPS, RHIC and LHC energies in string fusion model

摘要

Global characteristics of hh, hA and AA collisions at SPS, RHIC and LHC energies are examined within the Monte Carlo string fusion model (SFM). The possible influence of string fusion on the basic features of relativistic heavy ion collisions is studied. Particularly, in AA interactions at ultra-relativistic energies, string fusion can lead to a reduction of multiple production with relative enhancement of the baryon component. 25 refs., 4 figs., 1 tab.
