Description
The Compressed Baryonic Matter experiment (CBM) aims to study the area of the
QCD phase diagram at high net baryon densities and moderate temperatures. It is predicted by Three-fluid Hydrodynamics-based Event Simulator (THESEUS) that one of the signatures of phase transition is a change in shape of the mid-rapidity curvature and yield.
In this contribution we will present CBM performance for proton rapidity- transverse mass spectra. The results are obtained for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt(s_NN)$ = 2.7 - 4.9 GeV/c produced by THESEUS model. CBM detector response is simulated with the GEANT3 engine and reconstruction is done using the CbmRoot framework. Protons are identified with Time-of-Flight technique using 2 different approaches. Obtained spectra are corrected for detector biases using the UrQMD event generator. Results are compared with simulated values and sources of systematic biases are discussed.
