摘要：

We predict that the mean transverse momentum of charged hadrons < p(t)> rises as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity in ultracentral nucleus-nucleus collisions. We explain that this phenomenon has a simple physical origin and represents an unambiguous prediction of the hydrodynamic framework of heavy-ion collisions. We argue that the relative increase of < p(t)> is proportional to the speed of sound squared c(s)(2) of the quark-gluon plasma. Based on the value of c(s)(2) from lattice QCD, we expect < p(t)> to increase by approximately 18 MeV between 1% and 0.001% centrality in Pb+Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV (C) 2020 The Author(s).
