Thermal freeze-out
(shapes of pT,mT spectra):
elastic interactions cease
particle dynamics fixed
Basic Idea of Statistical Hadronic Models• Assume thermally (constant Tch) and chemically (constant ni)
equilibrated system
• Given Tch and 's (+ system size), ni's can be calculated in a grand canonical ensemble

Particle production:Statistical models do well
We get a chemical freeze-out temperature and a baryochemical potential out of the fit

Ratios that constrain model parameters

Statistical Hadronic Models : Misconceptions
• Model says nothing about how system reaches chemical equilibrium
• Model says nothing about when system reaches chemical equilibrium
• Model makes no predictions of dynamical quantities
• Some models use a strangeness suppression factor, others not
• Model does not make assumptions about a partonic phase; However the model findings can complement other studies of the phase diagram (e.g. Lattice-QCD)

Thermalization in Elementary Collisions ?

This type of “thermal” behavior requires no rescattering and no interactions. The collisions simply serve as a mechanism to populate phase space without ever reaching thermal or chemical equilibrium
In RHI we are looking for large collective effects.

Are thermal models boring ?Good success with thermal models in e+e-, pp, and AA collisions.Thermal models generally maketell us nothing about QGP, but (e.g. PBM et al., nucl-th/0112051):
Elementary particle collisions: canonical description, i.e. local quantum number conservation (e.g.strangeness) over small volume.Just Lagrange multipliers, not indicators of thermalization.Heavy ion collisions: grand-canonical description, i.e. percolation of strangeness over large volumes, most likely in deconfined phase if chemical freeze-out is close to phase boundary.

T systematics
it looks like Hagedorn was right! it looks like Hagedorn was right! if the resonance mass spectrum grows exponentially (and this if the resonance mass spectrum grows exponentially (and this
seems to be the case), there is a maximum possible temperature seems to be the case), there is a maximum possible temperature for a system of hadronsfor a system of hadrons

“Thermal” Spectra (flow aside)
N.B. Constituent quark and parton recombination models yield exponential spectra with partons following a pQCD power-law distribution. (Biro, Müller, hep-ph/0309052) T is not related to actual “temperature” but reflects pQCD parameter p0 and n.
Describes many spectra well over several orders of magnitude with almost uniform slope 1/T

• Increasing T has similar effect on a spectrum as increasing s
• Flow profile (n) matters at lower mT! • Need high quality data down to low-mT
