Transverse energy and charged particle multiplicity at various centralities at RHIC: Statistical model estimates

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The transverse energy and the charged particle multiplicity at midrapidity are evaluated in a single-freeze-out model for different centrality bins at RHIC at sNN=130\sqrt{s_{NN}}=130 and 200 GeV. The predictions of the model are done at the freeze-out parameters determined earlier from measured particle yields and pTp_{T} spectra. The results agree qualitatively well with the experimental data.
