Abstract
The primary scientific mission of the Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD) at the accelerator Nuclotron-based Ion Collider facility (NICA) (Dubna) is to investigate the properties of strongly interacting matter at high net-baryon densities. The goal of this work is to study the performance of the MPD detector for directed and elliptic flow measurements of identified hadrons by using the realistic Monte Carlo simulations of heavy-ion collisions at energies sNN = 4.5 − 11 GeV.
Highlights
The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider facility (NICA) is under construction at the JointInstitute for Nuclear Research (JINR), Dubna, Russia
Minimum bias events was made as an input for the full chain of realistic simulations of the Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD) detector subsystems based on the GEANT4 [17] platform and reconstruction algorithms built in the MPDROOT
We introduced a 3D distance of the closest approach (DCA) between the track and the reconstructed primary vertex
Summary
The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider facility (NICA) is under construction at the Joint. NICA will collide heavy-ions (198 Au + 198 Au, 209 Bi + 209 Bi) at energies in the range of s NN = 4 to 11 GeV per nucleon pair in the center-of-mass system to provide an opportunity of studying the matter in the region of high net-baryon density [1]. It can be quantified by Fourier coefficients vn in the expansion of the particle azimuthal distribution as: Published: 27 March 2021 dN/dφ ∝ 1 +
