Numerical Analyses of CERN 200GeV/A Heavy-Ion Collisions Based on a Hydrodynamical Model with Phase Transition

Abstract

We numerically analyze recent high energy heavy-ion collision experiments based on a hydrodynamical model with phase transition and discuss a systematic change of initial state of QGP-fluid depending on colliding-nuclei's mass. In a previous paper, we formulated a (3+1)-dimensional hydrodynamical model for quark-gluon plasma with phase transition and discussed numerically the space-time evolution in detail. We here compare the numerical solution with the hadronic distributions given by CERN WA80 and NA35. Systematic analyses of the experiments with various colliding nuclei enable us to discuss the dependences of the initial parameters of the hydrodynamical model on colliding nuclei's mass. Furthermore, extrapolating the present experiments, we derive the possible hadronic distributions for lead-lead 150GeV/A collision.
