Study of isothermal compressibility and speed of sound in matter formed in heavy-ion collision using unified formalism


Abstract in English

The thermodynamical quantities and response functions are useful to describe the particle production in heavy-ion collisions as they reveal crucial information about the produced system. While the study of isothermal compressibility provides inference about the viscosity of the medium, the speed of sound helps in understanding the equation of state. With an aim towards understanding the system produced in the heavy-ion collision, we have made an attempt to study isothermal compressibility and speed of sound as a function of charged particle multiplicity in heavy-ion collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = $2.76$ TeV, $5.02$ TeV, and $5.44$ TeV using Pearson formalism.
