Diagnosing quark matter by measuring the total entropy and the photon or dilepton emission rates
Abstract
The rates of thermal emission of photons and lepton pairs from quark matter formed in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions are related to the conserved total entropy of the quark matter. The transient existence of quark matter can be diagnosed by measuring the entropy separately from particle multiplicities and comparing the predicted and observed rates. The thermal soft-multiple-scattering rates are compared with the direct hard-single-scattering rates. Transverse-momentum effects, the background due to DD\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\mu}\ensuremath{\mu}\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}X decays, and fluctuations are discussed.

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.
