Centrality dependence of thermal parameters deduced from hadron multiplicities inAu+Aucollisions atsNN=<

Abstract: We analyse the centrality dependence of thermal parameters deduced from hadron multiplicities in Au + Au collisions at √ s N N = 130 GeV . While the chemical freeze-out temperature and chemical potentials are found to be roughly centrality-independent, the strangeness saturation factor γ S increases with participant number towards unity, supporting the assumption of equilibrium freeze-out conditions in central collisions.

“…This is problematic, since data on the heavy resonances is sketchy. The situation is saved by the finite energy density of the system, resulting in a chemical freeze-out temperature at RHIC of approximately 160-170 MeV [43,44], which strongly suppresses these heavy resonances and justifies their exclusion from the model. It is, however, important to check the sensitivity of the extracted thermal parameters to the chosen cut-off.…”

“…From Fig. 1 it is seen that the kaon multiplicity is over-predicted in hHKM for non-central events (if compared to the PHENIX data), which could be a sign of the incomplete equilibration of strangeness in peripheral collisions [16]. However, this effect is not seen when one compares results with the STAR kaon data.…”
