Influence of finite baryon density on hadronization in nucleus-nucleus collisions via recombination

TL;DR

This paper investigates how finite baryon density affects hadron yields in nucleus-nucleus collisions using a recombination model, considering different expansion scenarios and applying unitarity constraints.

Contribution

It introduces a detailed analysis of baryon to meson ratios under various expansion assumptions within the recombination hadronization framework.

Findings

Baryon to meson ratio varies with baryon density and expansion assumptions.

Unitarity constraints influence hadron yield calculations.

Different expansion models lead to distinct hadronization outcomes.

Abstract

In this paper is investigated the influence of net baryon density on baryon and meson yields in relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions, based on the recombination model for hadronization. Unitarity condition is used as a constraint on the model. Three cases with different assumptions on the expansion of partonic system are considered and the baryon to meson ratio is calculated for those situations.
