  2. Outline Introduction Granular source model of QGP droplets Granular source HBT results for RHIC and LHC heavy ion collisions Summary and discussions

  3. Recently, the HBT measurement for the =2.76 TeV Pb-Pb most central collisions at LHC has been performed. A consistent explanation to the HBT data of the RHIC and LHC experiments is required naturally for the source models. I. Introduction In high energy heavy ion collisions, HBT interferometry is a useful tool to probe the space-time of the particle-emitting source. The HBT measurements at RHIC high energies indicate it is hard to describe the source space-time by a simple evolution model. HBT data give strong constraints for the source model. To explain RHIC HBT data we proposed the granular source model of QGP droplets (PRC74,024908,2006;PRC80,044908,2009). In this work we will investigate the HBT interferometry in the granular source model in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. We will explain the LHC and RHIC HBT results consistently with the granular source model.

  4. (b) (a) In ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions the system reaches local equilibrium at . Then, there’s a rapid expansion in beam direction. NeXus (c) II. Granular source model of QGP droplets Because of the initial fluctuation, the local equilibrium system isn’t spatially uniform. It may form many tubes during the fast longitudinal expansion, and finally fragment into many droplets due to the “sausage” instability and surface tension. (PRL93,182301,2004) (a) Local equilibrium (b) Fast expansion (c) Breakup to droplets (PRC74,024908,2006)

  5. Assume: System fragments and forms granular source of QGP droplets at Droplet initial distribution Initial velocity of the droplet Gaussian distribution for the Initial radius of the droplet The source evolution after t0 is superposition of all the evolution of the droplets, each droplets evolves hydrodynamically. Bjorken longitudinal scaling invariant hypothesis

  6. We use two kinds of EOS in the hydrodynamic calculations: EOS-I EOS-II S95p-PCE (C. Shen, U. Heinz, P. Huovinen, H. Song, PRC 82, 054904, 2010)

  7. Droplet evolution The droplet evolutions for the two EOSs are different, because of the much difference of the sound velocities of the two EOSs.

  8. Pion freeze-out temperature distribution Pion transverse momentum spectra of the granular sources and the data of 2.76TeV Pb-Pb and 200GeV Au-Au model parameters: resonance decay direct production Assume system fragments when local density decreases at a certain value.

  9. III. Granular source HBT results for RHIC & LHC HIC Assume system fragments when the local density decreases at a certain value. Space-time distributions of pion source points

  10. The wider distributions of the transverse and longitudinal source points for the LHC granular source lead to the larger transverse and longitudinal HBT radii than those for the RHIC granular source. Although the larger breakup time t0 for the LHC source leads to a larger source radii and lifetime, the limited value of for the gran- ular sources and the large droplet transverse velocity lead to the result of Ro/Rs≈1 ! ( ) HBT results The HBT radii of granular sources agree well with the experimental data of RHIC 200GeV Au-Au and LHC 2.76TeV Pb-Pb.

  11. IV. Summary and discussions We investigate the two-pion interferometry in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions in the granular source model of QGPd. The pion transverse momentum spectra and HBT radii of the granular sources agree well with the RHIC \sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV Au-Au and LHC \sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions. In our model the granular sources for the LHC and RHIC collisions have the same droplet initial temperature (energy density) and the same forms of droplet distribution and velocity, but different initial system breakup time. The larger breakup time leads to the larger longitudinal and transverse distributions of the source points, and hence leads to larger HBT radii Ro, Rs, and Rl. However, the limited average relative emitting time of granular source and the larger droplet transverse expansion velocity lead to the ratio of the transverse HBT radii, Ro/Rs≈1.

  12. In our granular source model, there are strong correlations between the droplet space-time and velocity. The particle transverse momentum and HBT data at the RHIC and LHC experiments give strong constraints for the granular source model. The consistent explaination of the granular source model to these experimental dada will be helpful to understand the formation and evolution of the particle-emitting source in the ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.

Wong, PRC70, 2004,024903) Ro/Rs ≈1 for the granular source

  17. (1) (2) (3) For a set of variables of relative momentum, Once obtaining the temperature and velocity as functions of space-time by hydrodynamics, we construct the correlation function as: 1.Generate droplet (\rho_0, z_0), (v_d⊥, v_dz), and r’_0 by MC, according to their distributions. 2. Obtain T_f according to the probability P(T_f), and get the space-time coordinates of source-point in the droplet frame based on T(r’, t’), then, obtain source-point velocities based on v’(r’, t’). 3.Generate a pion momentum (p’_x, p’_y, p’_z) based on BE distribution in the droplet frame, and obtain the momentum and space-tine coordinates of the source-point in the source frame by Lorentz transformations. 4. Repeat step 1-3 for a pion pair, calculate (q_o, q_s, q_l), and add the weights w11=(A1)^2(A2)^2= (E’1/E1)(E’2/E2) and w12=\Phi^2 in the (q_o, q_s, q_l) bins for the Cor and Uncor, respectively. (4) 5. Repeat step 1-4 to generate the distributions Cor(q_o, q_s, q_l) and Uncor(q_o, q_s, q_l), and get the two-pion correlation function C(q_o, q_s, q_l)=Cor(q_o, q_s, q_l).
