UrQMD calculations of two-pion HBT
correlations in
central Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt{sNN}=2.76 TeV, Q. Li, Huzhou
Teachers College, P. R. China − Two-pion Hanbury-Brown-Twiss
(HBT)
correlations for central Pb-Pb collisions at the
Large-Hadron-Collider (LHC)
energy of sqrt{sNN}=2.76 TeV are investigated for the
first time
with the microscopic transport model UrQMD (Ultra-relativistic
Quantum
Molecular Dynamics). The transverse momentum dependence of
the Pratt-Bertsch
HBT radii is extracted from a three dimensional Gaussian fit to
the correlator
in the longitudinal co-moving system (LCMS). Qualitative
agreement with the ALICE
data is obtained, however Rout is over predicted by
nearly 50%. The
LHC results are also compared to data from the STAR experiment at
RHIC. For
both energies we find that the calculated RO/RS
ratio is
always larger than data, indicating that the emission in the UrQMD
cascade
calculations is less explosive than observed in the data.
