Speaker
Description
The NA61/SHINE experiment, situated at the CERN SPS, serves as a versatile fixed-target facility dedicated to probing the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter. Utilizing a unique two-dimensional scan in collision energy (sqrt(s_NN) = 5.1 - 16.8/17.3 GeV) and system size, the NA61/SHINE experiment aims to elucidate the onset of deconfinement and characterize the properties of the created medium.
Recent results on identified hadron production properties within central nucleus-nucleus collisions in the NA61/SHINE experiment will be presented. This includes the analysis of the kinematic distributions of identified hadrons with novel results for the Xe+La system, alongside an examination of strangeness production. Of particular interest is the ratio of positively charged kaons to pion which is highlighted as a key observable for understanding the onset of deconfinement phenomena. Furthermore, unexpected system size dependencies in the inverse slope parameter and the K+/pi+ ratio, correlated with collision energy, will be discussed. The NA61/SHINE results will be compared with the available world data and with various theoretical predictions such as EPOS, PHSD, and UrQMD.
