A Feasibility Study of Hyperon and Hypernuclei Reconstruction at NICA with BM@N Detector

  • 1. Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, 141980 Dubna, Moscow region (Russian Federation)

Description

Heavy strange objects (hyperons and hypernuclei) could provide essential signatures of the excited and compressed baryonic matter. Their reconstruction and identification should be one of the most important tasks of any experiment with heavy ions. At NICA, it is planned to study hyperons both in the collider mode (MPD detector) and the fixed- target one (BM@N setup). The results on Λ, Ξ hyperon and 3ΛH hypernuclei reconstruction in Monte Carlo simulated event samples of gold-gold collisions with the BM@N detector are presented. (paper)
