Freeze-Out Parameters in Central 158A GeV P208b+Pb Collisions
Abstract
Neutral pion production in central 158A GeV 208Pb+ 208Pb collisions has been studied in the WA98 experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The π0 transverse mass spectrum has been analyzed in terms of a thermal model with hydrodynamic expansion. The high accuracy and large kinematic coverage of the measurement allow one to limit previously noted ambiguities in the extracted freeze-out parameters. The results are shown to be sensitive to …
