    The Q.Q Interaction and Variation of Single Particle Energies

    Mingyang Ma · Praveen C Srivastava · Larry Zamick

    In this work we make further studies of the quadrupole quadrupole interaction used in shell model calculations.Whereas in a previous work we adjusted the single particle energies so as to obtain the rotatonal spectrum of the Elliott model, we here vary the single particle energies and see the various spectral shapes that evolve.

    A Nuclear Periodic Table

    K. Hagino🇯🇵 · Y. Maeno🇯🇵

    There have been many empirical evindences which show that the single-particle picture holds to a good approximation in atomic nuclei. In this picture, protons and neutrons move independently inside a mean-field potential generated by an interaction among the nucleons. This leads to the concept of nuclear shells, similar to the electronic shells in atoms. In particular, the magic numbers due to closures of the nucleonic shells, corresponding to noble gases in elements, have been known to play an important role in nuclear physics. Here we propose a periodic table for atomic nuclei, in which the elements are arranged according to the known nucleonic shells. The nuclear periodic table clearly indicates that nuclei in the vicinity of the magic numbers can be understood in terms of a shell closure with one or two additional nucleons or nucleon holes, while nuclei far from the magic numbers are characterized by nuclear deformation.

    Statistical hadronization model for heavy-ion collisions in a few GeV energy regime

    Sz. Harabasz🇩🇪 · W. Florkowski🇵🇱 · T. Galatyuk🇩🇪 · M. Gumberidze🇩🇪 · R. Ryblewski🇵🇱 · P. Salabura🇵🇱 · J. Stroth🇩🇪

    We show that the transverse-mass and rapidity spectra of protons and pions produced in Au-Au collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 2.4 GeV can be well reproduced in a thermodynamic model assuming single freeze-out of particles from a spherically symmetric hypersurface. This scenario corresponds to a physical picture used by Siemens and Rasmussen in the original formulation of the blast-wave model. Our framework modifies and extends this approach by incorporation of a Hubble-like expansion of QCD matter and inclusion of resonance decays. In particular, the Delta(1232) resonance is taken into account, with a width obtained from the virial expansion. Altogether, our results bring evidence for substantial thermalization of the matter produced in heavy-ion collisions in a few GeV energy regime and its nearly spherical expansion.

    Rapidity decorrelation of anisotropic flow caused by hydrodynamic fluctuations

    Azumi Sakai🇯🇵 · Koichi Murase🇨🇳 · Tetsufumi Hirano🇯🇵

    We investigate the effect of hydrodynamic fluctuations on the rapidity decorrelations of anisotropic flow in high-energy nuclear collisions using a (3+1)-dimensional integrated dynamical model. The integrated dynamical model consists of twisted initial conditions, fluctuating hydrodynamics, and hadronic cascades on an event-by-event basis. To understand the rapidity decorrelation, we analyze the factorization ratio in the longitudinal direction. Comparing the factorization ratios between fluctuating hydrodynamics and ordinary viscous hydrodynamics, we find a sizable effect of hydrodynamic fluctuations on rapidity decorrelations. We also propose to calculate the Legendre coefficients of the flow magnitude and the event-plane angle to understand the decorrelation of anisotropic flow in the longitudinal direction.
