Description
The short-lived resonances produced in heavy-ion collisions probe the existence and the properties of the late hadronic phase of the nucleus-nucleus interactions. Due to their short lifetimes, the resonance differential yields in the final state are sensitive to competing processes of rescattering of daughter particles and regeneration of surrounding hadrons in the dense hadron gas. The resonances also carry information about strangeness production and hadronization mechanisms. We report the expected properties of the resonances produced in heavy-ion collisions at NICA energies as well as the results of feasibility studies for reconstruction of resonances in the MPD experiment.
