Transverse momentum distribution with radial flow in relativistic diffusion model

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

Large transverse momentum distributions of identified particles observed at RHIC are analyzed by a relativistic stochastic model in the three dimensional (non-Euclidean) rapidity space. A distribution function obtained from the model is Gaussian-like in radial rapidity. It can well describe observed transverse momentum pTp_T distributions. Estimation of radial flow is made from the analysis of pTp_T distributions for pˉ\bar{p} in Au + Au Collisions. Temperatures are estimated from observed large pTp_T distributions under the assumption that the distribution function approaches to the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution in the lower momentum limit. Power-law behavior of large pTp_T distribution is also derived from the model.
