The 3-point vertices of a flux tube network lead to formation of baryons upon hadronisation. Therefore, correlations in the baryon number distribution at the last scattering surface are related to the preceding pattern of the flux tube vertices, and provide a signature of the nearby deconfinement phase transition. I discuss the nature of the expected signal, which should be observable in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2012-06-13T09:42:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "25.75.Nq", "12.38.Mh" ], "keywords": [ "flux tube model signals", "heavy ion collisions", "baryon correlations", "flux tube model offers", "nearby deconfinement phase transition" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2012, "month": "Jun", "volume": 85, "number": 11, "pages": 114019 }, "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 943988, "adsabs": "2012PhRvD..85k4019P" } } }
