在sqrt(s_NN)= 200 GeV的Au+Au碰撞中中性π介子产生的方位各向异性:喷流淬灭的路径长度依赖性和初始几何形状的作用

Azimuthal anisotropy of neutral pion production in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV: Path-length dependence of jet quenching and the role of initial geometry

The PHENIX Collaboration

摘要:

我们测量了sqrt s_NN = 200 GeV的Au+Au碰撞在1 < pT < 18 GeV/c时π_0的方位角各向异性。观察到的各向异性在3 < pT < 7 - 10 GeV/c范围内逐渐减小,但在10 GeV/c以上仍为正值。这种各向异性的幅度是根据预测,至少10 GeV/c,由目前微扰QCD(pQCD)能量损失模型计算。由于胶子饱和效应和初始几何涨落,对初始几何修改所预期的各向异性增加的估计不足以解释这种差异。计算实现路径长度依赖陡峭比目前pQCD能量损失模型所暗示的,显示出合理的协议的数据。

英文摘要:

We have measured the azimuthal anisotropy of pi0's for 1 < pT < 18 GeV/c for Au+Au collisions at sqrt s_NN = 200 GeV. The observed anisotropy shows a gradual decrease in 3 < pT < 7 - 10 GeV/c, but remains positive beyond 10 GeV/c. The magnitude of this anisotropy is under-predicted, up to at least 10 GeV/c, by current perturbative QCD (pQCD) energy-loss model calculations. An estimate of the increase in anisotropy expected from initial-geometry modification due to gluon saturation effects and initial-geometry fluctuations is insufficient to account for this discrepancy. Calculations which implement a path length dependence steeper than what is implied by current pQCD energy-loss models, show reasonable agreement with the data.
