Flavour Equilibration in Quark-Gluon Plasma

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Within the framework of a dynamical and physically transparent model developed earlier, we study the time evolution of various quark flavours in the baryon-free region in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. We show that even under optimistic conditions, the quark-gluon system fails to achieve chemical equilibrium.
