  15. Femto-puzzle I Contradiction with transport and simple hydro calcul. • - small space-time scales • - their weak energy dep. • - Rout/Rside ~ 1 • Basicallysolveddue to the initial flow increasing with energy (likely related to the increase of the initial energy density and partonic energy fraction)

  16. Femtoscopy Puzzle I basically solved due to initial flow appearing in realistic IC

  17. Rischke & Gyulassy, NPA 608, 479 (1996) With 1st order Phase transition Femtoscopic signature of QGP onset 3D 1-fluid Hydrodynamics Initial energy density 0 • Long-standing signature of QGP onset: • increase in , ROUT/RSIDE due to the Phase transition • hoped-for “turn on” as QGP threshold in 0is reached •  decreases with decreasing Latent heat & increasing tr. Flow • (high 0 or initial tr. Flow)

  18. Cassing – Bratkovskaya: Parton-Hadron-String-Dynamics Perspectives at FAIR/NICA energies

  19. Femto-puzzle II No signal of a bump in Rout near the QGP threshold (expected at AGS-SPS energies) !? likely solved due to a dramatic decrease of partonic phase with decreasing energy

  20. Femtoscopy of Pb+Pb at LHC ALICE arXiv:1012.4035 All radii increase with Nch from RHIC to LHC (not from SPS to RHIC)! Multiplicity scaling of the correlation volume  universal freeze-out density The LHC fireball: - hotter - lives longer & - expands to a larger size Freeze-out time f from Rlong=f(T/mt)1/2

  21. Dense matter (collective flows) also in pp collisions at LHC (for high Nch) ? - pt increases with nch and particle mass - BE CF vs nch and pt points to expansion at high nch - Ridge effect observed in angular correlations at high nch CMS Ridge effect R(kt)  at large Nch  expansion

  40. Summary • Assumptions behind femtoscopy theory in HIC seem OK at k  0. At k > ~ 100 MeV/c, the usual smoothness and equal-time approximations may not be valid. • Wealth of data on correlations of various particle species (,K0,p,,) is available & gives unique space-time info on production characteristics including collective flows • Rather direct evidence for strong transverse flow in HIC at SPS & RHIC comes from nonidentical particle correlations • LHC femtoscopic data vs nch and mt point to a universal fireball freeze-out density settled at RHIC energies and indicate collective expansion in high-multiplicity pp-collisions • Absence of femtoscopic signals of QGP 1-st order PT (onset and CEP) at √sNN < 10 GeV is likely due to a dramatic decrease of partonic phase with decreasing energy  dedicated high statistics, precise experiments (like planned at NICA and FAIR) are required • Info on two-particle strong interaction:  &  & pscattering lengths from HIC at SPS and RHIC. Good perspective at RHIC & LHC (a problem of residual correlations is to be solved).
