RHIC上QCD物质的方位各向异性和基本对称性

Azimuthal anisotropy and fundamental symmetries in QCD matter at RHIC

V. A. Okorokov

摘要:

对重离子碰撞中集体行为的研究为研究强相互作用物质新极端态的可能形成和阐明其性质提供了最灵敏和最有前途的探针之一。给出了RHIC重离子相互作用末态方位各向异性的系统实验结果。方位各向异性的实验数据表明,在极端条件下,强相互作用物质的终态表现为近理想液体,而不是夸克和胶子的理想气体。在${Au+Au}$碰撞中观察到的喷流的强烈猝灭和喷流状方位角关联的显著改变是部分子穿越含有大密度色荷的物质时极端能量损失的证据。首次在RHIC实验上发现了射流抑制与射流相对于反应面的取向的关系。讨论了复合汇流模型及相应的分析方法。考虑了不同初始能量下重离子碰撞中强相互作用的$\cal{P}$和$\cal{CP}$对称性可能的破坏。因此,现在的事实是坚定的,即极端热和密度物质产生的相对论性重离子碰撞在RHIC显着不同的一切被观察到和调查之前。

英文摘要:

A study of collective behavior in heavy ion collisions provides one of the most sensitive and promising probes for investigation of possible formation of new extreme state of strong interacting matter and elucidating its properties. Systematic of experimental results for final state azimuthal anisotropy is presented for heavy ion interactions at RHIC. Experimental data for azimuthal anisotropy indicate that the final state strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions behaves as near-ideal liquid rather, than ideal gas of quarks and gluons. The strong quenching of jets and the dramatic modification of jet-like azimuthal correlations, observed in ${Au+Au}$ collisions, are evidences of the extreme energy loss of partons traversing matter which contains a large density of color charges. For the first time, dependence of the jet suppression on orientation of a jet with respect to the reaction plane is found at RHIC experimentally. The model of compound collective flow and corresponding analytic approach are discussed. The possible violations of $\cal{P}$ and $\cal{CP}$ symmetries of strong interactions in heavy ion collisions at different initial energies are considered. Thus, now the fact is established firmly, that extremely hot and dense matter created in relativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC differs dramatically from everything that was observed and investigated before.
