Event-by-event fluctuations of the mean transverse momentum in 40, 80, and 158 AGeV/c Pb-Au collisions
Measurements of event-by-event fluctuations of the mean transverse momentum in Pb-Au collisions at 40, 80, and 158 AGeV/c are presented. A significant excess of mean $p_{T}$ fluctuations at midrapidity is observed over the expectation from statistically independent particle emission. The results are...

description | Measurements of event-by-event fluctuations of the mean transverse momentum in Pb-Au collisions at 40, 80, and 158 AGeV/c are presented. A significant excess of mean $p_{T}$ fluctuations at midrapidity is observed over the expectation from statistically independent particle emission. The results are somewhat smaller than recent measurements at RHIC. A possible nonmonotonic behavior of the mean $p_{T}$ fluctuations as function of collision energy, which may have indicated that the system has passed the critical point of the QCD phase diagram in the range of $\mu_{B}$ under investigation, has not been observed. The centrality dependence of mean $p_{T}$ fluctuations in Pb-Au is consistent with an extrapolation from $pp$ collisions assuming that the nonstatistical fluctuations scale with multiplicity. The results are compared to calculations by the RQMD and URQMD event generators. |
