Fragmentation of 1.2-GeV per nucleon La-139

Christie, W.B. ; Romero, J.L. ; Brady, F.P. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 48 (1993) 2973-2983, 1993.
Inspire Record 366050 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26083

The fragmentation of 1.2 GeV per nucleon La139 nuclei has been studied. Total charge changing cross sections for H (CH2-C), C, and Pb target nuclei, and elemental production cross sections for C and CH2 targets for 1≤ΔZ≤30 have been measured. For heavy projectile fragments, the projected transverse momenta extracted are generally larger than predicted by models based on the internal momenta of nucleons in nuclei. Fits to the heavy fragment momentum distributions yield additional transverse momenta or ‘‘bounce-off’’ which range from ≃500 to 1000 MeV/c.

The NA49 collaboration Pühlhofer, Falk ; Appelshäuser, H. ; Bächler, J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.A 638 (1998) 431-434, 1998.
Inspire Record 481889 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36218

Data on φ -production obtained by the CERN NA49 experiment for central Pb+Pb collisions at 158 GeV/u are presented. Compared with pp interactions the φ -yield shows substantial strangeness enhancement: the φ /π ratio is found to increase by a factor of 2.6 ± 0.6, which is approximately the square of the K/π enhancement.

Production of Phi mesons in p + p, p + Pb and central Pb + Pb collisions at E(beam) = 158-A-GeV

The NA49 collaboration Afanasiev, S.V. ; Anticic, T. ; Bächler, J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 491 (2000) 59-66, 2000.
Inspire Record 537897 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27038

Yields and phase space distributions of φ -mesons emitted from p+p (minimum bias trigger), p+Pb (at various centralities) and central Pb+Pb collisions are reported ( E beam =158 A GeV). The decay φ →K + K − was used for identification. The φ / π ratio is found to increase by a factor of 3.0±0.7 from inelastic p+p to central Pb+Pb. Significant enhancement in this ratio is also observed in subclasses of p+p events (characterized by high charged-particle multiplicity) as well as in the forward hemisphere of central p+Pb collisions. In Pb+Pb no shift or significant broadening of the φ -peak is seen.

Charged pion production in 2-AGeV to 8-AGeV central Au + Au collisions.

The E-0895 collaboration Klay, J.L. ; Ajitanand, N.N. ; Alexander, J.M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 68 (2003) 054905, 2003.
Inspire Record 622260 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.4989

Momentum spectra of charged pions over nearly full rapidity coverage from target to beam rapidity have been measured in the 0-5% most central Au+Au collisions in the beam energy range from 2 to 8 AGeV by the E895 Experiment. Using a thermal parameterization to fit the transverse mass spectra, rapidity density distributions are extracted. The observed spectra are compared with predictions from the RQMD v2.3 cascade model and also to a thermal model including longitudinal flow. The total 4$\pi$ yields of the charged pions are used to infer an initial state entropy produced in the collisions.

Neutron-Proton Differential-Cross-Section Measurements at 50 MeV

Montgomery, T.C. ; Brady, F.P. ; Bonner, B.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 31 (1973) 640-643, 1973.
Inspire Record 945159 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21337

The neutron-proton differential cross section at 50.0 MeV has been measured to a precision of ≃ 2% for backward-hemisphere c.m. angles and ≃ 3% for forward angles, both relative. The present data are not in good agreement with the previous n−p measurements near this energy. A preliminary phase-shift analysis using the present data produces more satisfactory results, particularly for the P11 phase shift.

Measurement of Neutron-Deuteron Polarization at 35 MeV

Zamudio-Cristi, J. ; Bonner, B.E. ; Brady, F.P. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 31 (1973) 1009-1012, 1973.
Inspire Record 945160 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21394

The neutron polarization asymmetry in neutron-deuteron scattering has been measured from 44.5° to 160° (c.m.) neutron angle. The results display quantitatively the same structure as proton-deuteron polarization data, but discrepancies appear for angles corresponding to those near the minimum of the differential cross section. In this region the polarization is considerably more negative than in the proton-deuteron case, and both are more negative than current theoretical predictions.

Event-by-event fluctuations of average transverse momentum in central Pb + Pb collisions at 158-GeV per nucleon.

The NA49 collaboration Appelshäuser, H. ; Bächler, J. ; Bailey, S.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 459 (1999) 679-686, 1999.
Inspire Record 498247 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.41648

We present first data on event-by-event fluctuations in the average transverse momentum of charged particles produced in Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN SPS. This measurement provides previously unavailable information allowing sensitive tests of microscopic and thermodynamic collision models and to search for fluctuations expected to occur in the vicinity of the predicted QCD phase transition. We find that the observed variance of the event-by-event average transverse momentum is consistent with independent particle production modified by the known two-particle correlations due to quantum statistics and final state interactions and folded with the resolution of the NA49 apparatus. For two specific models of non-statistical fluctuations in transverse momentum limits are derived in terms of fluctuation amplitude. We show that a significant part of the parameter space for a model of isospin fluctuations predicted as a consequence of chiral symmetry restoration in a non-equilibrium scenario is excluded by our measurement.

Lambda hyperons in 2-A-GeV Ni + Cu collisions.

The EOS collaboration Justice, M. ; Albergo, S. ; Bieser, F. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 440 (1998) 12-19, 1998.
Inspire Record 447685 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31414

A sample of Lambda's produced in 2 A*GeV Ni + Cu collisions has been obtained with the EOS Time Projection Chamber at the Bevalac. Low background in the invariant mass distribution allows for the unambiguous demonstration of Lambda directed flow. The transverse mass spectrum at mid-rapidity has the characteristic shoulder-arm shape of particles undergoing radial transverse expansion. A linear dependence of Lambda multiplicity on impact parameter is observed, from which a total Lambda + Sigma^0 production cross section of $112 +/- 24 mb is deduced. Detailed comparisons with the ARC and RVUU models are made.

Xi and Antixi production in 158-GeV/nucleon Pb + Pb collisions.

The NA49 collaboration Appelshäuser, H. ; Bächler, J. ; Bailey, S.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 444 (1998) 523-530, 1998.
Inspire Record 477539 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31330

We report measurements of Xi and Xi-bar hyperon absolute yields as a function of rapidity in 158 GeV/c Pb+Pb collisions. At midrapidity, dN/dy = 2.29 +/- 0.12 for Xi, and 0.52 +/- 0.05 for Xi-bar, leading to the ratio of Xi-bar/Xi = 0.23 +/- 0.03. Inverse slope parameters fitted to the measured transverse mass spectra are of the order of 300 MeV near mid-rapidity. The estimated total yield of Xi particles in Pb+Pb central interactions amounts to 7.4 +/- 1.0 per collision. Comparison to Xi production in properly scaled p+p reactions at the same energy reveals a dramatic enhancement (about one order of magnitude) of Xi production in Pb+Pb central collisions over elementary hadron interactions.

Hadron yields and hadron spectra from the NA49 experiment

The NA49 collaboration Jones, P.G. ; Afanasiev, S.V. ; Alber, T. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.A 610 (1996) 188C-199C, 1996.
Inspire Record 432742 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36468

Preliminary inclusive spectra of negative hadrons, net protons and neutral strange particles are presented, measured by the NA49 experiment in central Pb+Pb collisions at 158 GeV per nucleon. Comparison of their yields with those from the lighter S+S system suggests that the yields scale approximately with the number of participating nucleons.
