Dr Prakhar Garg (Indian Institute of Technology Indore (IN))29/09/2015, 10:50Correlations and FluctuationsContributed talkThe RHIC Beam Energy Scan focuses on mapping the QCD phase diagram and pinpointing the location of a possible critical end point. Bose-Einstein correlations and event-by-event fluctuations of conserved quantities, measured as a function of centrality and collision energy, are promising tools in these studies. Recent lattice QCD and statistical thermal model calculations predict...Go to contribution page

Ludmila Malinina (Joint Inst. for Nuclear Research (RU))29/09/2015, 11:10Correlations and FluctuationsContributed talkFemtoscopy allows measurements of the space-time characteristics of particle production using correlations resulting from the effects of quantum statistics and final state interactions. We present the results of femtoscopic analyses for different identified particle systems measured by ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV. Hydrodynamic models predict a decrease of the radii with increasing...Go to contribution page

Markus Kohler (Weizmann Institute of Science (IL))29/09/2015, 11:30Correlations and FluctuationsContributed talkRecent measurements in two- and multi-particle correlations in p+Pb collisions suggest collective behavior reminiscent of that observed in Pb+Pb. In addition, the data hint at interesting geometric behavior in ultra-central p+Pb events, where fluctuations in the size of the proton may become significant. Femtoscopic measurements may provide useful insight on both of these problems because they...Go to contribution page

Christopher Plumberg (The Ohio State University)29/09/2015, 11:50Correlations and FluctuationsContributed talkOne of the major lessons from the field of heavy-ion physics in the past several years has been the significance of the role played by event-by-event fluctuations in the evolution of a heavy-ion collision. Their important effects on many momentum-space observables (particle yields and spectra, anisotropic flows, etc.) have already been studied systematically, and some of the properties of...Go to contribution page

Adam Kisiel (Warsaw University of Technology (PL))29/09/2015, 12:10Correlations and FluctuationsContributed talkInteraction cross-sections for baryon pairs are of fundamental interest and they are actively investigated theoretically. They are known well for pairs of common (anti-)baryons, however there is a lack of precise data for heavier baryons, including the ones carrying strangeness. The two-particle correlation formalism (femtoscopy) is sensitive to the interaction kernel for a pair of...Go to contribution page
