Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

The main results of the project are as follows: (i) The NA61/SHINE two-dimensional scan in nuclear mass of colliding nuclei and collision energy was completed by the data taking on Ar+Sc and Xe+La collisions at 13A, 20A, 30A, 40A, 75A and 150. (ii) The NA61/SHINE measurements for strong interaction, cosmic-ray and neutrino physics were extended by measurements on Pb+Pb collisions, nuclear fragmentation cross section and Fermilab neutrino experiments, respectively. (iii) Preliminary results from the two-dimensional scan show (a) no evidence for the critical point of strongly interacting matter, (b) evidence for the onset of fireball, an unexpected discovery of a rapid transition from non-equilibrium to equilibrium system when the nuclear mass number of colliding nuclei increases. Motivated by the success of the current measurements, the NA61/SHINE Collaboration proposed to CERN a new physics program with measurements to be performed between 2021 and 2024. In spite of the small resources allocated to it by the DFG, the project was clearly very successfully. This can be explained by a significant financial support from other NA61/ SHINE institutions as well as the unexpected discovery, the onset of fireball, which is based on results obtained from a relatively simple analysis of the experimental data. The achieved progress was communicated to public mostly using CERN media, see the public NA61/SHINE web-site for a collection of the reports: http://shine.web. cern.ch/ .
