Bose-Einstein condensation of pions in proton–proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider using non-extensive Tsallis statistics

Abstract: The possibility of formation of Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) is studied in pp collisions at √ s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. A thermodynamically consistent form of Tsallis non-extensive distribution is used to estimate the transition temperature required to form BEC of pions, which are the most abundant species in a multi-particle production process in hadronic and nuclear collisions. The obtained results have been contrasted with the systems produced in Pb-Pb collisions to have a better picture. … Show more

“…This has motivated us to use a thermodynamically consistent form of the Tsallis distribution function for the present work. Such a distribution function has been used extensively to study the thermodynamical properties of the systems formed in HIC [23][24][25]. The Tsallis distribution function introduces a fitting parameter called the non-extensive parameter (q), which gives the degree of deviation from equilibrium.…”

“…We analyzed the variance of the number of particles. The possibility of formation of a condesnate phase in the hadronic systems have been postulated in several works [24,[31][32][33]. Investigations on the High Energy Physics distributions show that, for hadronic systems, q ∼ 1.14, in good agreement with the theoretical prediction [8,9].…”

“…Therefore, we suggest to call it the transverse momentum redistribution effect. We would like to note that, in the case of pions and kaons, this redistribution enhances the low momentum modes and can potentially lead to overpopulation of the zero momentum one, i.e., to the formation of the corresponding Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC), which recently were discussed in the context of LHC energies-for a recent example, see [44]. If this is the case, then the p+C+p and Pb+Pb+Pb TNC can be the best candidates to observe the BEC of pions or/and kaons.…”
