Baryon distribution for high energy heavy ion collisions in a parton cascade model

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The baryon distribution is studied by using a parton cascade model which is based on pQCD incorporating hard partonic scattering and dynamical hadronization scheme. In order to study baryon distribution,baryonic cluster formation is newly implemented as well as hadronic higher resonance states from parton/beam cluster decay. The net baryon number and charged hadron distributions are calculated with different KK-factors in which parameters are fixed by elementary ppˉp\bar p data at Ec.m.=200E_{c.m.}=200 GeV. It is found that baryon stopping behavior at SPS and RHIC energies are not consequence of hard parton scattering but soft processes.
