Thermal description of transverse-momentum spectra at RHIC

arXiv:nucl-th/0208061 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9474(02)01530-0

Abstract

We show that the transverse-momentum spectra of all hadrons measured at RHIC, including hyperons, are described very well in a thermal model assuming the simultaneous chemical and thermal freeze-outs. The model calculation takes into account all hadronic resonances and uses a simple parametrization of the freeze-out hypersurface.
