Workshop for young scientists with research interests focused on physics at FAIR

Nuclear astrophysics is the study of the origin of the elements, nuclear energy generation in space, and the nature of ultradense matter. Experimental nuclear astrophysics studies require access to nuclides across nearly the whole nuclear chart, from the proton dripline to the neutron dripline. In order to reach these extremes, cutting-edge rare isotope facilities such as FAIR are required. I...

Using data samples collected with BESIII detector at BEPCII collider, we measure Born cross section of e+e- pp ̅ at center-of-mass energies √s from 2232.4 to 3671.0 MeV. The effective electromagnetic form factor of the proton is deduced with assumption that electric and magnetic form factors are equal(GE=GM). The ratio |GE/GM|and |GM |are extracted by fitting polar angle distribution of...

Exclusive binary annihilation reactions induced by antiprotons of momentum from 1.5 to 15 GeV/c can be extensively investigated at FAIR/PANDA [1]. The hadronization process (how a hadron is built from the quantum vacuum created by the pp annihilation and how does it mass, and quantum numbers arise) is the most fundamental problem in QCD. We are specially interested in the channel of charged...

The RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES-I) program, which covers center-of-mass energies 7.7 GeV – 62.4 GeV, was proposed to look for the turn-off of signatures of the quark gluon plasma (QGP), search for a possible QCD critical point, and study the nature of the phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter. RHIC BES-I has shown that the partonic interactions are dominant at center-of-mass...

Particle flow and reaction plane reconstruction performance using the Projectile Spectator Detector (PSD) in the CBM experiment at the future FAIR facility will be presented. The PSD is a compensating lead-scintillator calorimeter designed to measure the energy distribution of the forward going projectile nucleons and nuclei fragments (spectators) produced close to the beam rapidity. The main...

We model early times dynamics of relativistic heavy ion collisions by an initial color electric field which decays to a plasma by the Schwinger mechanism. The dynamical evolution of the color field is coupled to the dynamics of the many particles system produced by the decay, which is described by relativistic kinetic theory at fixed viscosity to entropy density ratio η/s. The backreaction of...
