Particle yield fluctuations and chemical nonequilibrium in Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_NN}$ = 200 GeV

We study particle yield fluctuations within the statistical hadronization model, considering both chemical equilibrium and non-equilibrium. Considering both the particle yield ratios and the yield fluctuations we show that it is possible to differentiate the chemical freeze-out conditions. As an exa...

description We study particle yield fluctuations within the statistical hadronization model, considering both chemical equilibrium and non-equilibrium. Considering both the particle yield ratios and the yield fluctuations we show that it is possible to differentiate the chemical freeze-out conditions. As an example of the procedure we consider the relative yield ratio $\Lambda/K^-$ together with the normalized net charge fluctuation $\ave{\Delta Q^2}/\ave{\Nch}$. We determine quantitatively how these variables constrain the chemical conditions at freeze-out.

Considering both the particle yield ratios and the charge fluctuations we show that it is possible to differentiate between chemical equilibrium and non-equilibrium freeze-out conditions. As an example of the procedure we show quantitatively how the relative yield ratio $\Lambda/K^-$ together with the normalized net charge fluctuation $v(Q)=\ave{\Delta Q^2}/\ave{\Nch}$ constrain the chemical conditions at freeze-out. We also discuss the influence of the limited detector acceptance on fluctuation measurements, and show how this can be accounted for within a quantitative analysis.nucl-th/0503026CERN-PH-TH-2005-041CERN-PH-TH-2005-041oai:cds.cern.ch:8267852005-03-10
