Both the relativistic experimental data and the PHOBOS and PHENIX Au+Au data at RHIC energy could be fairly reproduced within the framework of JPCIAE model and without retuning the model parameters. The predictions for collisions at the LHC energy were also given. We computed the participant nucleon distributions using different methods. It was found that the number of participant nucleons is not a well defined variable both experimentally and theoretically. Thus it may be inappropriate to use the charged particle pseudorapidity density per participant pair as a function of the number of participant nucleons for distinguishing various theoretical models.展开更多

The simulations are done for the quark-gluon matter, the directly producedpions, the pion matter, and the hadron matter. The simulated net charge fluctuation of the quark-gluon matter is closeto the thermal model prediction for the quark-gluon gas. However, the discrepancy exists comparing the simulated netcharge fluctuation for directly produced pions and the pion matter with the thermal model prediction for pion gas andthe resonance pion gas, respectively. The net charge fluctuation of hadron matter from default JPCIAE simulations isnearly 3.5 times larger than quark-gluon matter. A discussion is given for the net charge fluctuation as an evidence ofQGP phase transition.展开更多

After considering the energy dependence of the model parameter α in string fragmentation function and adjusting it to the experimental data of charged multiplicity to a certain extent, the model predictions for meson yield, rapidity, and transverse mass distributions are compatible with the experimental data at AGS, SPS and RHIC energies. A calculation for Pb+Pb collisions at LHC energy is given as well. The obtained fractional variable in string fragmentation function shows a saturation in energy dependence. It is discussed that the saturation of fractional variable in string fragmentation function might be a qualitative representation of the energy dependence of nuclear transparency.展开更多
