The global observable distributions of nucleus-nucleus collisions at high energy are studied. It is shown that these distributions are sensitive to interaction dynamics and can be used to investigate the evolution of dense nuclear matter.…
We present the first results of a comprehensive microscopic approach to describe nucleus-nucleus elastic collisions by means of an optical potential derived at first order in multiple-scattering theory and computed by folding the projectile…
The probability of a projectile nucleon to traverse a target nucleus without interaction is calculated for central Si-Cu and Si-Pb collisions. Special attention is given to the impact parameter range which contributes to events with large…
The determination of the centrality of nuclear collision or the value of the impact parameter of heavy nuclei is of great importance for the analysis of all experimental data and comparison with theory. One method is to measure the number…
In proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collision experiments, one determines the centrality of a collision according to the multiplicity or energy deposited in a detector. This serves as a proxy for the true collision centrality, as defined…
The dependencies of charged particle pseudorapidity density and transverse energy pseudorapidity density at midrapidity on the collision energy and on the number of nucleon participants, or centrality, measured in nucleus-nucleus collisions…
In the framework of the HIJING model global characteristics of nucleus- nucleus collisions are studied for a Large Hadron Collider energy scale. An interesting model prediction is the presence of a central bump over a pseudorapidity plateau…
Transverse momentum spectra of charged particles are measured by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in pPb collisions at sqrt(s[NN]) = 5.02 TeV, in the range 0.4 < pt < 120 GeV and pseudorapidity abs(eta[CM]) < 1.8 in the proton-nucleon…
To estimate realistic cross sections in ultra peripheral heavy ion collisions we must remove effects of strong absorption. One method to eliminate these effects make use of a Glauber model calculation, where the nucleon-nucleon energy…
The energy flow created in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV is studied within the pseudorapidity range 1.9<eta<4.9 with data collected by the LHCb experiment. The measurements are performed for inclusive minimum-bias interactions, hard…
The Large Hadron Collider forward (LHCf) experiment is designed to use the LHC to verify the hadronic-interaction models used in cosmic-ray physics. Forward baryon production is one of the crucial points to understand the development of…
In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion experiments, one estimates the centrality of a collision by using a single observable, say $n$, typically given by the transverse energy or the number of tracks observed in a dedicated detector. The…
HIJING generator simulation of nucleus-nucleus collisions at ultrarelativistic energies are presented. Is shown, that the global characteristics of nucleus-nucleus collisions, such as of distribution of a charge multiplicity, total and…
Photographic Nuclear Emulsion Detector (PNED) has been in use in nuclear and particle physics experiments from the begining, often as the major detector system. However, direct measurement of impact parameter in this detector does not seem…
There are a large number of physics programs one can explore in electron-nucleus collisions at a future electron-ion collider. Collision geometry is very important in these studies, while the measurement for an event-by-event geometric…
In this minireview article, we examine the inconsistent results of thermal parameters derived from various models in high-energy collisions. Through a comprehensive literature review and based on the average transverse momentum or the…
Coulomb effects on $\pi^\pm$ and $K^\pm$ spectra in relativistic nuclear collisions are investigated. At collision energies around 1 GeV the ratio of $\pi^-$ to $\pi^+$ is enhanced several times at low transverse momenta but less at…
The determination of centrality in nucleus-nucleus collisions is a crucial task, as it enables the estimation of the impact parameter and thereby allows for the comparison of experimental results with predictions from theoretical models and…
The spatial distribution of interactions in high energy collisions of heavy nuclei is discussed using the wounded nucleon, binary collision, hard sphere, and colliding disk parameterizations of interaction densities. The mean radius, its…
We analyze the time evolution of the kinetic properties of nuclear matter produced in heavy-ion collisions at Fermi energies. The collision system is simulated using Constrained Molecular Dynamics (CoMD) transport calculations whose output…
