摘要
We analyze the directed flow of protons and pions in high-energy heavy-ion collisions in the incident energy range from root s(NN) = 7.7 to 27 GeV within a microscopic transport model. While standard hadronic transport approaches do not describe the collapse of directed flow below root s(NN) similar or equal to 20 GeV, a model that simulates effects of a softening of the equation of state by introducing the attractive orbits describes well the behavior of directed flow data. The equation of state with the attractive orbits is as soft as the one with the first-order phase transition.
