Search for DCC in relativistic heavy-ion collisions : Possibilities and Limitations

Abstract

The experimental observation of disoriented chiral condensate is affected due to various physical and detector related effects. We study and quantify the strength of the experimental signal, ``neutral pion fraction'' within the framework of a simple DCC model, using the analysis methods based on the multi-resolution discrete wavelet technique and by evaluating the signal to background ratio. The scope and limitations of DCC search in heavy-ion collision experiments using various combination of detector systems are investigated.
