How Sensitive Global Observables are to the Event Topology in Heavy-ion Collisions at the Large Hadron Collider: A Case Study
Research Square (Research Square)(2021)
摘要
Abstract Particle production and event topology are very strongly correlated in high-energy hadronic and nuclear collisions. Event topology is decided by the underlying particle production dynamics and medium effects. Transverse spherocity is an event shape observable, which has been used in pp and heavy-ion collisions to separate the events based on their geometrical shapes. It has the unique capability to distinguish between jetty and isotropic events. In this work, we have implemented transverse spherocity in Pb-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 5.02 TeV using A Multi-Phase Transport Model (AMPT). While awaiting for experimental explorations, we perform a feasibility study of dependence of transverse spherocity on some of the global observables in heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider energies. These global observables include the Bjorken energy density (εBj), speed of sound (cs2) in the medium and the kinetic freeze-out properties for different collision centralities. The present study reveals about the usefulness of event topology dependent measurements in heavy-ion collisions in contrast to proton-proton collisions.
