STAR Flow, Chirality and Vorticity PWG

["Zuowen Liu" <liuzw AT mails.ccnu.edu.cn>]

Dear Subhash,

I am very appreciative of your nice suggestions and detailed review.

I have modified the proceeding, kindly find the updated one by the link:

https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/qm23proceeding_Zuowen.pdf

For the question: l#61 & 82: Isn't it the opposite of what you mentioned?

I think they are identical, I just copy the same sentence to the summary.

Thanks and Best regards,

Zuowen

Dear Zuowen,

Thanks for considering my suggestions and this version reads better. I
have a few more listed below:

l#10: Furthermore, we ... (smaller case)
l#17: contribution, we ...
l#19: in Fixed Target Au+Au collisions....
l#43: The above data-model comparisons ...

l#51-53: "In contrast with the partonic collectivity .... and below"
--> How about the following
While the existence of partonic collectivity is observed through NCQ
scaling of v2 at higher BES energies (sNN > 7.7 GeV) [7], the complete
collapse of NCQ scaling in v2 at √sNN = 3.2 GeV implies that hadronic
interactions play an important role at this energy and below.

l#60: "v1 slopes of all particles ...increasing"
--> The v1 slopes of all particles (..) decrease in magnitude as
collision energy increases.

l#61 & 82: Isn't it the opposite of what you mentioned?

l#62-65: "The bottom panel of Fig. 4 show collision energy dependence of
pT integrated v2, negative v2 turns to positive v2 for all particles
(π±, K0S, and Λ) within collision energy √ sNN = 3.0 - 3.9 GeV, that
indicates the change of out-of-plane to in-plane expansion [10] happens
in √ sNN = 3.0 - 3.9 GeV"
--> The lower panel in Figure 4 depicts the collision energy dependence
of transverse momentum (pT) integrated v2. It is observed that the sign
of v2 changes from negative to positive for all particles (π±, K0S, and
Λ) within the collision energy range of √sNN = 3.0 - 3.9 GeV. This shift
signifies the transition from out-of-plane to in-plane expansion [10],
occurring specifically within the mentioned energy range.

l#66: The JAM calculations of Λ are shown by colored bands, where blue,
red, and black bands stand for cascade mode, baryonic mean field mode,
and mean field mode without spectators, respectively"
--> The JAM calculations for Λ are represented by colored bands, with
blue, red, and black bands corresponding to cascade, baryonic mean
field, and mean field without spectators modes, respectively.

l#68: "Baryonic mean field enhances v1 slope of Λ in √sNN = 3.0 -3.9
GeV, it indicates there is strong mean field [11] at high baryon density
region"
--> The comparison of Λ v1 between the data and model calculations
suggests the presence of a strong baryon mean field [11] in the high
baryon density region.

l#69-71: "For pT integrated v2, only mean field mode with spectators
shows sigh change of v2, implies that the spectator shadowing
plays important role in √sNN = 3.0 - 3.9 GeV"
--> Furthermore, the comparison between the measured pT-integrated v2
and model calculations indicates the significant influence of spectator
shadowing in the sNN = 3.0 − 3.9 GeV range.


l#83: And negative v2 turns to positive v2, indicates that the change of
...
--> And the sign change in v2 indicates that the change of ....


Thanks and regards,
Subhash
