Kaon flow in Au+Au collisions at 1.23AGeV measured with HADES

We present results on the anisotropic transverse flow of kaons (K + , K 0 S and K − ) in Au+Au collisions at √s NN = 2:42 GeV measured with HADES. It was proposed already in the mid-nineties that kaon flow close to its production threshold might be a good probe for the kaon-nucleon potential and, co...

Zusammenfassung:We present results on the anisotropic transverse flow of kaons (K + , K 0 S and K − ) in Au+Au collisions at √s NN = 2:42 GeV measured with HADES. It was proposed already in the mid-nineties that kaon flow close to its production threshold might be a good probe for the kaon-nucleon potential and, consequently, or the nuclear equation-of-state. The presented analysis was performed on more than 2 billion events of the 40% most central collisions, which opened the possibility of analyzing the kaon flow differentially as a function of transverse momentum, rapidity, and centrality, even in this low-energy regime. The measurements are compared to microscopic transport model predictions and to other data at similar collision energies. Implications on the properties of compressed nuclear matter will be discussed.
