Parallel Session C2: In-medium and strangeness
- Christian Fischer (University of Giessen)
Relativistic nucleus–nucleus collisions offer a unique possibility for studying nuclear matter under the influence of high temperature and pressure. During the collision a system of interacting nucleons, resonances, and mesons, called hadronic fireball, is created.\par
The Dielectron Spectrometer HADES operated at the SIS18 synchrotron of FAIR/GSI Darmstadt recently provided new intriguing...
The SPS Heavy Ion and Neutrino Experiment (NA61/SHINE) studies the properties of hadron production in collisions of beam hadrons and nuclei with fixed hadronic and nuclear targets.
In this talk I will discuss the space-time evolution of the system of strongly interacting matter created in the collision, studied from the modification of charged pion spectra and $\pi^{+}/\pi^{-}$ ratios by the...
Nuclear collisions provide an excellent opportunity to understand the properties of a strongly coupled deconfined medium $i.e.$ the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), along with the production mechanism of heavy quarks (beauty or charm quarks). Beauty quarks are produced by hard parton scatterings in hadronic collisions and their production can be measured by the decay products of the B meson. In pp...
We have recently studied the strong decays of φ(2170) to final states involving the kaonic resonances K(1460), K1(1270) and K1(1400), on which experimental data have been extracted by the BESIII Collaboration. The formalism developed is based on interpreting φ(2170) and K(1460) as states arising from three-hadron dynamics. For K1(1270) and K1(1400) we investigate different descriptions, such...
