PbPb碰撞中喷注猝灭的观测和研究(核子-核子质心能量= 2.76 TeV)

Observation and studies of jet quenching in PbPb collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy = 2.76 TeV

CMS Collaboration

摘要:

利用LHC的CMS探测器研究了核子-核子质心能量为2.76 TeV的PbPb碰撞中喷流的产生,所用的数据样本对应于6.7微仓的积分亮度。使用CMS量热计中沉积的能量重建射流,并研究其作为碰撞中心性的函数。随着碰撞中心度的增加,观察到双射流横向动量的显著不平衡,与射流淬灭一致。所观察到的效果从本研究中使用的下限截止值(射流横向动量= 120 GeV/c)延伸到可用数据样本的统计极限(射流横向动量约为210 GeV/c)。带电粒子轨道与射流的相关性表明,动量不平衡是伴随着第二个最有活力的,远离侧射流的破碎模式软化。当整合相对于远离侧射流的方向分布在宽角度范围内的低横向动量粒子时,双射流动量平衡被恢复。

英文摘要:

Jet production in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV was studied with the CMS detector at the LHC, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.7 inverse microbarns. Jets are reconstructed using the energy deposited in the CMS calorimeters and studied as a function of collision centrality. With increasing collision centrality, a striking imbalance in dijet transverse momentum is observed, consistent with jet quenching. The observed effect extends from the lower cut-off used in this study (jet transverse momentum = 120 GeV/c) up to the statistical limit of the available data sample (jet transverse momentum approximately 210 GeV/c). Correlations of charged particle tracks with jets indicate that the momentum imbalance is accompanied by a softening of the fragmentation pattern of the second most energetic, away-side jet. The dijet momentum balance is recovered when integrating low transverse momentum particles distributed over a wide angular range relative to the direction of the away-side jet.
