Experimental equation of state in proton-proton and proton-antiproton collisions and phase transition to quark gluon plasma

Renato Campanini,
Gianluca Ferri

Abstract: We deduce approximate equations of state from experimental measurements in pp and pp collisions. Thermodynamic quantities are estimated combining the measure of average transverse momentum p T vs pseudorapidity density dN ch dη with the estimation of the interaction region size from measures of Bose Einstein correlation, or from a theoretical model which relates dN ch dη to the impact parameter. The results are very similar to theory predictions in case of crossover from hadron gas to quark gluon plasma. Accor… Show more

“…Experimentally, the formation of a mini QGP in pp/pA collisions is supported by the observation of the ridge effect [15][16][17][18] in pp/pA collisions at the LHC energies and by the steep growth of the midrapidity strange particle production at charged multiplicity dN ch /dη ∼ > 5 [19]. The earlier analysis [20] of p T as a function of multiplicity, employing Van Hove's arguments [21] also supports the onset of QGP regime at such charged multiplicity density. There were suggested alternative nonhydrodynamical explanations of the ridge effect in pp/pA collisions [22][23][24] due to the initial state parton effects.…”

“…for beginning of the regime with formation of the hot QCD matter in pp collisions found in [25] from variation of the average transverse hadron momentum p T with dN ch /dη, and than a more conservative value dN ch /dη ∼ 9 obtained in [26]. The onset of the regime with QGP formation at dN ch /dη ∼ > 5 − 10 is also supported by the observation of a steep growth of the strange particle production in pp collisions in the range dN ch /dη ∼ 2 − 8 [27].…”

“…The idea that the QGP may be produced in pp collisions has attracted much attention in recent years (see, for instance, [2][3][4][5][6][7]). It is mostly due to observation of the ridge effect in high multiplicity pp events at √ s = 7 TeV by the CMS collaboration [8], which may be caused by the transverse flow of the produced mini-QGP fireball.…”
