It has been shown that transverse-mass and rapidity spectra of p and π± produced in Au-Au collisions at √sNN = 2.4 GeV are well reproduced by thermal emission from a spheroid single freeze-out hypersurface [1]. To better understand the particle spectra, it is necessary to account for the effect of electromagnetic interactions. In central collisions at relatively low energies, i.e., of few GeV, incoming nucleons are largely stopped in the interaction region, and high positive electric charge density is generated. The electromagnetic field accelerates positively charged particles, and decelerates negatively charged ones.
In order to simulate this effect in THERMINATOR 2, a direct solution to relativistic Newton equation has been implemented, including electromagnetic forces between particles.
