  5. Chemical Freeze-out Model Refs. J.Rafelski PLB(1991)333 Hadron resonance ideal gas P. Braun-Munzinger et al., nucl-th/0304013 Density of particle i Q i : 1 for u and d, -1 for u and d T ch : Chemical freeze-out temperature µ q : light-quark chemical potential s i : 1 for s, -1 for s µ s : strange-quark chemical potential : spin-isospin freedom g i m i : particle mass V : volume term, drops out for ratios! γ s : strangeness under-saturation factor µ B = 3 µ q µ S = µ q - µ s All resonances and unstable particles are decayed Compare particle ratios to experimental data Kai Schweda 5/53 LHC lecture, Heidelberg, 1 Feb, 2010

  6. Example At RHIC, Au+Au @ 200 GeV: T ch = 160 MeV, µ B = 20 MeV Anti-proton to proton ratio: Volume drops out Pbar/p = exp[(-20 MeV - 20 MeV)/160 MeV] = 0.77 ψ ’/J/ ψ = (m ψ ’ /m J/ ψ ) 2 * K 2 (m ψ ’ /160 MeV)/ K 2 (m J/ ψ /160 MeV) = 3% Experimentally: measure particle yields and ratio to extract T ch and µ B Kai Schweda 6/53 LHC lecture, Heidelberg, 1 Feb, 2010

  7. Hadron Yield − Ratios 1) At RHIC: T ch = 160 ± 10 MeV µ B = 25 ± 5 MeV 2) γ S = 1. ➠ The hadronic system is thermalized at RHIC. 3) Short-lived resonances show deviations. ➠ There is life after chemical freeze-out.

  8. Chemical Freeze-Out vs Energy With increasing energy: • T ch increases and saturates at T ch = 160 MeV • Coincides with Hagedorn temperature • Coincides with early lattice results  limiting temperature for hadrons, T ch ch ≈ 160 MeV ! µ B decreases, µ B = 1MeV at LHC •  Nearly net-baryon free !

  10. Baryon Ratios With increasing energy: • Baryon ratios approach unity At LHC, pbar / p ≈ 0.95 •  with increasing collision energy, production of matter and anti-matter gets closer Compilation: N. Xu Kai Schweda 10/53 LHC lecture, Heidelberg, 1 Feb, 2010

  11. ‘Elementary’ p+p Collisions  Low multiplicities  use canonical ensemble: Strangeness locally conserved!  particle yields are well reproduced  Strangeness not equilibrated !
