What do pions tell us about dynamics of heavy-ion collisions at SIS18 energies ? — •Malgorzata Gumberidze for the HADES collaboration — TU Darmsatdt, Germany

Pion production is the dominating inelastic process in nucleus-nucleus collisions. The production of pions in the SIS18 energy range (1-2 GeV per nucleon) proceeds primarily through the excitation and decay of baryonic resonances. In a baryon rich environment, therefore, pions serve as important messengers of the reaction dynamics.

In this contribution we present results of a study of charged pion production at SIS18 energies using the HADES spectrometer at GSI. The main focus will be on 40% most central Au(1.23 GeV per nucleon)+Au collisions. Our results contribute with an unprecedented statistics to systematic studies of pion production in heavy-ion collisions.

We have preformed a measurement of the transverse momentum distributions of π^± mesons covering a fairly large rapidity interval. The yields, transverse mass, angular distributions and azimuthal emission patterns are compared with transport model calculations as well as wtih existing data from other experiments.
