Coulomb Effects in Charged Particle Spectra from Heavy Ion Collisions at AGS and SIS
Abstract
Data from the AGS experiment E866 on charged particles emitted in central Au+Au collisions at 10.8 AGeV incident energy is reviewed. The study of spectral shapes indicates the presence of collective transverse flow and - in particular for charged pions - of Coulomb final state interaction between emitted particles and the nuclear charge distribution. The comparison to SIS pion data measured with KaoS elucidates the role of charged pions to probe nuclear reaction dynamics at lower incident energies.
