Correlations with fluctuating strings

Nuclear Theory 2019-07-24 v1

Abstract

We present a semi-analytic approach to forward-backward multiplicity correlations in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions, based on particle emission from strings with fluctuating end-points. We show that with the constraints from rapidity spectra, one can obtain bounds for the magnitude of the standard measures of the forward-backward fluctuations. The method is generic under the assumption of independent production from sources. For definiteness, we use the wounded quark model for Au+Au and d+Au collisions at the energy of sNN=200\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV.
