The charged particles produced in nucleus-nucleus collisions are divided into two parts. One is from the hot and dense matter created in collisions. The other is from leading particles. The hot and dense matter is assumed to expand…

We study the properties of a one-dimensional (1D) granular gas consisting of $N$ hard rods on a line of length $L$ (with periodic boundary conditions). The particles collide inelastically and are fluidized by a heat bath at temperature…
