Soft Physics in Pb-Pb at the LHC

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2019-08-13 v1 Nuclear Experiment

Abstract

The LHC results on particle and transverse energy production and Bose-Einstein correlations show that the system produced in Pb-Pb collisions at psNN = 2:76TeV is significantly larger, lives longer and is hotter and denser than at RHIC energies. The particle spectra and soft particle correlations allow a more detailed study of the properties of the produced system and its initial conditions. This contribution highlights some of the first soft physics results from the LHC.
