Elliptic emission of $K^{+}$ and $\pi^{+}$ in 158A GeV Pb + Pb collisions

An event-by-event analysis of the azimuthal angular correlation with respect to the reaction plane has been carried out for K/sup +/ and pi /sup +/ emission near mid-rapidity in 158A.GeV Pb+Pb collisions. In semi-central collisions, K/sup +/ mesons are found to be preferentially emitted out of the r...

Descripción
Sumario:An event-by-event analysis of the azimuthal angular correlation with respect to the reaction plane has been carried out for K/sup +/ and pi /sup +/ emission near mid-rapidity in 158A.GeV Pb+Pb collisions. In semi-central collisions, K/sup +/ mesons are found to be preferentially emitted out of the reaction plane, while pi /sup +/ mesons are emitted in the reaction plane. The results suggest that the kaon emission is influenced by in-medium potential effects in addition to collective flow effects. (25 refs).
