Abstract

The distribution characteristic of final-state particles is one of significant parts in high energy nuclear collisions. The transverse momentum distribution of charged particles carries essential evolution information about the collision system. Tsallis statistics is used to investigate the transverse momentum distribution of charged particles produced in Xe-Xe collisions at 5.44 TeV. On the basis, we reproduce the nuclear modification factor of the charged particles. The calculated results agree approximately with the experimental data measured by the ALICE Collaboration.
