Particle Ratio / Chemical Freeze-Particle Ratio / Chemical Freeze-outout
• Chemical freeze-out– End of inelastic interactions– Information of number of particle is frozen
• The particle ratios are described statistical model– Hadron resonance ideal gas + decay effect– The data are described in SIS over SPS
energy (AA), and LEP (e+e-) and SppS (pp)
