Antinuclei in heavy-ion collisions

Abstract: We review progress in the study of antinuclei, starting from Dirac's equation and the discovery of the positron in cosmic-ray events. The development of proton accelerators led to the discovery of antiprotons, followed by the first antideuterons, demonstrating that antinucleons bind into antinuclei. With the development of heavy-ion programs at the Brookhaven AGS and CERN SPS, it was demonstrated that central collisions of heavy nuclei offer a fertile ground for research and discoveries in the area of antinucl… Show more

“…To search for the possible critical energy in the phase transition from hadronic matter to QGP in high energy collisions, the STAR Collaboration has been performing the Beam Energy Scan (BES) program [10,11,12,13] at the RHIC. Besides, other experiments at similar or lower energies at other accelerators are scheduled [14,15].…”

“…Over the past few years, there have been numerous efforts to explore a quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase diagram and quark gluon plasma, which are important goals for ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. A QCD phase diagram is characterized by temperature (T ) and the baryon chemical potential (µ B ) [5,10].…”

“…In ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at BNL-RHIC and CERN-LHC, the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is believed to be created [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32]. Studying the properties of QGP is one of the main goals of these experiments.…”
