Temperature and Transverse Expansion of Fireballs in Pb+Pb Collisions at the LHC
We analyze hadron transverse momentum spectra from Pb+Pb Collisions recorded by the LHC detector ALICE. As the theoretical model we use a Monte Carlo model which includes production and decays of resonances. The transverse expansion of the fireball is shown to be stronger and the freeze-out temperat...

| description | We analyze hadron transverse momentum spectra from Pb+Pb Collisions recorded by the LHC detector ALICE. As the theoretical model we use a Monte Carlo model which includes production and decays of resonances. The transverse expansion of the fireball is shown to be stronger and the freeze-out temperature higher than in similar collisions at RHIC, where collision energy is more than ten times lower. |
