Single-particle distribution in the hydrodynamic and statistical thermodynamic models of multiparticle production

Cooper, Fred, Frye, Graham·1974·Physical Review D

Abstract

We find that the single-particle distribution $\frac{\mathrm{EdN}}{{d}^{3}p}$ for an expanding relativistic gas described by a distribution function obeying the Boltzmann transport equation is not of the form of an integral over collective motions of a velocity weight function times a "Lorentz-transformed" rest-frame distribution function. This casts doubt on the algorithms of Milekhin and Hagedorn for determining the single-particle distribution function in their models of particle production. For the hydrodynamic model, the correct algorithm is presented.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
