Extraction of kinetic freeze-out properties and effect of resonance decays

  • 1. Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN (United States). Dept. of Physics

Description

We present STAR results from identified particle spectra measured in √SNN = 62.4 GeV Au-Au collisions. Particle production and system dy-namics are compared to results at √SNN = 200 GeV. We extract kinetic and chemical freeze-out parameters using blast wave model parametrization and statistical model. We discuss the effect of resonance decays on the extracted kinetic freeze-out parameters. (author)
