Abstract
We have carried out methods of study to find the correlation between charged particle multiplicity and collision centrality of Au+Au collisions at SNN = 200 GeV. We have studied the open data from the ALICE experiment and arrived at the conclusion that central collisions produced a greater number of charged particles than peripheral collisions. This is done by reconstructing the three silicon layers inside the inner tracking system of the detector and studying the change in two spatial variables between layers: pseudorapidity with range || < 1 and azimuthal angle with acceptance , which can then be input into the sideband method to find the final multiplicity of each event. The study provides an insight into the transient nature of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) produced in collisions by exploring how collision aftermaths vary with different conditions of the partons, which hopefully adds to the understanding of matter under the strong force at extreme energy density.
