Centrality and pseudorapidity dependence of the charged-particle multiplicity density in Xe–Xe collisions at √sNN =5.44TeV
In this Letter, the ALICE Collaboration presents the first measurements of the charged- particle multiplicity density, dNch/dη , and total charged-particle multiplicity, Nchtot , in Xe–Xe collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon–nucleon pair of sNN=5.44TeV . The measurements are performed as a function of collision centrality over a wide pseudorapidity range of −3.5<η<5 . The values of dNch/dη at mid-rapidity and Nchtot for central collisions, normalised to the number of nucleons participating in the collision ( Npart ) as a function of sNN follow the trends established in previous heavy-ion measurements. The same quantities are also found to increase as a function of Npart , and up to the 5% most central collisions the trends are the same as the ones observed in Pb–Pb at a similar energy. For more central collisions, the Xe–Xe scaled multiplicities exceed those in Pb–Pb for a similar Npart . The results are compared to phenomenological models and theoretical calculations based on different mechanisms for particle production in nuclear collisions. All considered models describe the data reasonably well within 15%.
