The yields for hadrons and even light nuclei measured at midrapidity in relativistic heavy ion collisions are found to be dictated exclusively by their thermal Boltzmann factor for a common temperature of approximately 155 MeV. The reason for the validity of the thermal model description is widely discussed. Here, we offer a new type of argument in its favor.

  1. Deconfinement and freezeout boundaries in equilibrium thermal models

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Equilibrium thermal model curves for chemical freezeout and deconfinement reproduce heavy-ion data, coincide with lattice QCD at low baryon density, and separate at high baryon density, suggesting a mixed hadron-QGP window.
