摘要
量子色动力学(Quantum Chromodynamics,QCD)相图结构和相变临界点是高能物理理论和实验的研究热点。相对论重离子碰撞是探索QCD相图结构、寻找QCD相变临界点的有力工具。美国布鲁克海文国家实验室的相对论重离子对撞机(Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider,RHIC)是目前世界上进行高能重离子碰撞的大型实验装置之一,其中的STAR(Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC)实验致力于高温高密条件下夸克胶子等离子体(Quark Gluon Plasma,QGP)性质以及QCD相结构的实验研究。本文着重介绍近年来RHIC-STAR能量扫描实验中运用守恒荷高阶矩和轻核产生寻找QCD相变临界点的研究进展,最后将对高重子密度区QCD相结构的未来研究做出展望。
Experimental evidences at the relativistic heavy ion collisions(RHIC)and large hadron collider(LHC)have demonstrated the formation of quark gluon plasma(QGP)in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at a small baryon chemical potential,where the phase transition from hadronic matter to QGP is suggested to be a crossover from state-of-the-art lattice quantum chromodynamics(QCD)calculations.It has been conjectured that there is a firstorder phase transition and a critical point at a finiteμB region in the QCD phase diagram.This study reviewed recent progress in searching for the QCD critical point from RHIC-STAR experiments.
