hadron talk - NA44 data and Nix-Chapman

NA44 DATA AND NIX-CHAPMAN FIT - PRELIMINARY


Shown here are preliminary data from NA44 (black dots with error bars). These are pi+ data, and below are the equivalent plots for K+ and p, and for the proton dn/dy. All data sets, as well as pi+ HBT data, were fed into the Nix-Chapman model. The program then optimized a global fit in terms of fundamental parameters (Temperature, flow, chemical potentials etc), and from these parameters in turn the spectra were calculated, and plotted as open circles.

The match is pretty good

The two left data points with error bars are measured, the two other points are reflected w.r.t. mid-rapidity. The solid line is Nix-Chapman.
