论文摘要

我们报告了第五和第六阶累积物($ c_ {5} $,$ c_ {6} $)的光束的能量和碰撞中心性依赖性和net -proton和proton分布,从$ \ sqrt {sqrt {sqrt {sqrt {sqrt {sqrt {在Rhic。净 - 普罗顿累积比通常遵循QCD热力学预期的层次结构,除了在$ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} $ = 3 GEV时发生碰撞的情况。 $ c_ {6}/c_ {2} $ 0-40 \%的中心性碰撞越来越负面,而减少$ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} $,而它的阳性为最低$ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} $。这些观察到的负符号与QCD计算(在Baryon化学势,$μ_{b} \ leq $ 110 MEV)一致,其中包括跨界夸克 - 哈德隆过渡。此外,对于$ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} \ geq $ 11.5 gev,在不确定性中测得的质子$κ_{n} $不支持质子分布的两种成分形状,这些形状可以从第一阶相变。结合起来,超订单的质子数波动表明,QCD物质在高巴属密度下的结构,$μ__{b} \ sim 750 $ meV($ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} $ = 3 GEV)与消失的$μ_{b} $μ_{b} $ 20 $ MEV截然不同。 ($ \ sqrt {s_ {nn}} $ = 200 GEV及更高)。

We report the beam energy and collision centrality dependence of fifth and sixth order cumulants ($C_{5}$, $C_{6}$) and factorial cumulants ($κ_{5}$, $κ_{6}$) of net-proton and proton distributions, from $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 3 - 200$ GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. The net-proton cumulant ratios generally follow the hierarchy expected from QCD thermodynamics, except for the case of collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 3 GeV. $C_{6}/C_{2}$ for 0-40\% centrality collisions is increasingly negative with decreasing $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$, while it is positive for the lowest $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ studied. These observed negative signs are consistent with QCD calculations (at baryon chemical potential, $μ_{B} \leq$ 110 MeV) that include a crossover quark-hadron transition. In addition, for $\sqrt{s_{NN}} \geq$ 11.5 GeV, the measured proton $κ_{n}$, within uncertainties, does not support the two-component shape of proton distributions that would be expected from a first-order phase transition. Taken in combination, the hyper-order proton number fluctuations suggest that the structure of QCD matter at high baryon density, $μ_{B}\sim 750$ MeV ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 3 GeV) is starkly different from those at vanishing $μ_{B}\sim 20$MeV ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV and higher).
