In-medium effects on $K^{+}$ and $K^{-}$ spectra in lighter systems

TL;DR

This paper investigates how the nuclear medium influences the transverse momentum spectra of $K^{+}$ and $K^{-}$ mesons in light nuclear collisions, specifically in $^{12}C+^{12}C$ systems.

Contribution

It provides new insights into in-medium effects on kaon spectra in light systems, which were less studied compared to heavier systems.

Findings

In-medium effects alter $K^{+}$ and $K^{-}$ spectra in light systems.

The study offers quantitative analysis of these effects.

Results suggest modifications are significant even in lighter collision systems.

Abstract

We aim to explore the in-medium effects on the transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) spectra of $K^{+}$ and $K^{-}$ in lighter mass system $^{12}C+^{12}C$.
