Exotic nuclei is using as a key topics in nuclear and astronomy physics to understand the structure of matter, interaction and fundamental force including evolution of the universe.

Introduction

Exotic Nuclei

Exotic Nuclei -an exotic atom is an otherwise normal atom in which one or more sub-atomic particles have been replaced by other particles of the same charge.

Model and Calculation

PACIAE models has been developed from the PYTHIA model. PACIAE is a model not only for elementary collisions, but also for nucleus-nucleus collisions.

The PACIAE model consists of four stages

parton initialization parton evolution (rescattering) Hadronization Hadron evolution (rescattering)

Model and Calculation

Parton initialization

Nucleus-nucleus collision is decomposed into nucleon-nucleon (NN) collisions. The string fragmentation is switched-off and diquarks (anti-diquarks) are broken into quarks

Model and Calculation

Parton evolution (rescattering)

Parton evolution or called “parton rescattering” is the proceeded from parton initialization until partonic freez-out.

Model and Calculation

Hadronization

Hadronization is the process after parton rescattering. the string fragmentation was built up.

Model and Calculation

Hadron evolution (rescattering)

Hadron evolution is proceeded until hadronic freez-out such as 𝐾 ,𝑝 ,𝜋 ,𝑛 , Λ ,Σ , 𝐽 /Ψ

Model and Calculation

DCPC model is the model that used to construct the cluster of particles and calculate the yield of light nuclei (anti-nuclei) after the transport model simulations.

Research Methods

Measure the charge particles , and yields and simulate the productions at scaled mid-rapidity < 0.5 from the simulation of proton and proton collisions at 7 TeV by using PACIAE+DCPC model

Analyze the result from PACIAE+DCPC model and compare the result with ALICE data.

Conclusion

Measurement of charge particles , and yields at scaled mid-rapidity < 0.5 in pp collsions at 7 TeV the simulation can be reasonably described by ALICE

The predictions of kaonic nuclei and productions can be consistent with the yields of , and by The value of kaonic nuclei productions are under the maximum number of proton (anti-proton) and kaon (anti-kaon)
