Experiment NA49 at the Cern SPS uses a large acceptance detector for a systematic study of particle yields and correlations in nucleus-nucleus, nucleon-nucleus and nucleon-nucleon collisions. Preliminary results for Pb+Pb collisions at 40,…
The production of W+W- pairs is analysed in a data sample collected by ALEPH at a mean centre-of-mass energy of 182.7 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 57 pb-1. Cross sections are given for different topologies of W decays…
Neutral-pion, pi^0, spectra were measured at midrapidity (|y|<0.35) in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 39 and 62.4 GeV and compared to earlier measurements at 200 GeV in the 1<p_T<10 GeV/c transverse-momentum (p_T) range. The high-p_T tail…
In this letter, we present the multiplicity and yields of charged hadrons and particle ratios in d-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}= 200$ GeV using the PYTHIA8/Angantyr. The model reproduces the multiplicity ($N_{ch}$) and pseudo-rapidity…
The NA44 experiment has measured single particle inclusive spectra for charged pions, kaons, and protons as a function of transverse mass near mid-rapidity in 158 A GeV/$c$ Pb+Pb collisions. From the particle mass dependence of the observed…
Large proton and antiproton enhancement with respect to pions has been observed at intermediate transverse momentum $p_T \approx$ 2-5 GeV/$c$ in Au+Au collisions at RHIC. To investigate the possible source of this anomaly, the production of…
The BRAHMS measurement of proton-to-pion ratios in Au+Au and p+p collisions at 62.4 and 200 GeV is presented as a function of transverse momentum and collision centrality within the pseudorapidity range 0 < eta < 3.2. The p/pi ratio…
We present consistent theoretical descriptions of the $\pi N \to e^+e^- N$ and $\gamma N \to e^+e^- N$ reactions on proton and neutron targets for total center of mass energies $\sqrt s$ ranging between 1.50 GeV and 1.75 GeV. These…
We study the effect of separate chemical and kinetic freeze-outs to the ideal hydrodynamical flow in Au+Au collisions at RHIC (sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV energy). Unlike in earlier studies we explore how these effects can be counteracted by…
Azimuthal correlations of high-pT charged hadron pairs from (di-)jet-fragmentation are studied at mid-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at vsNN=200 GeV. The distribution of jet-associated partner hadrons (1.0< pT <2.5 GeV/c) per trigger hadron…
Using a relativistic transport model for the expansion stage of S+Au collisions at 200 GeV/nucleon, we show that the recently observed enhancement of low-mass dileptons by the CERES collaboration can be explained by the decrease of vector…
The suppression of high transverse momentum (P_T) inclusive hadron spectra in heavy-ion collisions as compared to the scaled expectation of high P_T hadron production in p-p collisions is the most direct manifestation of the interaction of…
The NA60 experiment has measured low-mass muon pair production in In-In collisions at 158 A GeV with unprecedented precision. We show that this data is reproduced very well by a dynamical model with parameters scaled from fits to…
