The hydrokinetic model is applied to restore the initial conditions and space-time picture of the matter evolution in central Au+Au collisions at the top RHIC energy. The analysis is based on the detailed reproduction of the pion and kaon momentum spectra and femtoscopic data in whole interval of the transverse momenta studied by both STAR and PHENIX collaborations. A good description of the pion and kaon transverse momentum spectra and interferometry radii is reached with both initial energy density profiles motivated by the Glauber and Color Glass Condensate (CGC) models, however, at different energy densities.

A simple method for the extraction of the times of maximal emission for kaons and pions using the combined fitting of their transverse momentum spectra and the longitudinal interferometry radii dependencies on the pair transverse mass $m_T$ is applied to Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC energy $sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02$ TeV. The method is based on the analytical formulas, that were earlier successfully utilized in the studies of Pb+Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$ TeV. To test the method, the spectra, radii and particle radiation picture are calculated within the integrated hydrokinetic model (iHKM), that includes all the stages of the matter evolution in high-energy A+A collisions: the systems formation, its thermalization, viscous hydrodynamics evolution, particlization and subsequent hadronic cascade. The model describes and predicts well already published LHC data in soft physics? kinematic region. Thus, the fitting results for maximal emission times of kaons and pions are compared to the approximate maximal emission time values, estimated based on the emission function plots, obtained in iHKM. The developed simple method is intended for use in experimental analysis of femtoscopy data in relativistic A+A collisions.
We study dielectron production in proton-proton collisions at top RHIC beam energy within an extended statistical hadronization model. The invariant mass spectrum of correlated dielectron pairs is evaluated in the low invariant mass region and calculated results are compared with the PHENIX experiment. The model is found to be able to describe the data very well up to invariant masses of 1 GeV with few adjustable parameters.
A simultaneous description of hadronic yields; pion, kaon, and proton spectra; elliptic flows; and femtoscopy scales in the hydrokinetic model of A+A collisions is presented at different centralities for the top BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) 2.76-TeV energies. The initial conditions are based on the Glauber Monte-Carlo simulations. When going from RHIC to LHC energy in the model, the only parameters changed are the normalization of the initial entropy defined by the number of all charged particles in most central collisions, contribution to entropy from binary collisions and baryonic chemical potential. The hydrokinetic model is used in its hybrid version (hHKM), which provides the correct match (at the isochronic hypersurface) of the decaying hadron matter evolution with hadronic ultrarelativistic quantum molecular dynamics cascade. The results are compared with the standard hybrid models where hydrodynamics and hadronic cascade are matching just at the non-space-like hypersurface of chemical freeze-out or on the isochronic hypersurface. The modification of the particle number ratios at LHC caused, in particular, by the particle annihilations at the afterburn stage is also analyzed.
We present a systematic study of charged pion and kaon interferometry in Au$+$Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$=200 GeV. The kaon mean source radii are found to be larger than pion radii in the outward and longitudinal directions for the same transverse mass; this difference increases for more central collisions. The azimuthal-angle dependence of the radii was measured with respect to the second-order event plane and similar oscillations of the source radii were found for pions and kaons. Hydrodynamic models qualitatively describe the similar oscillations of the mean source radii for pions and kaons, but they do not fully describe the transverse-mass dependence of the oscillations.
We describe RHIC pion data in central A+A collisions and make predictions for LHC based on hydro-kinetic model, describing continuous 4D particle emission, and initial conditions taken from Color Glass Condensate (CGC) model.
