摘要:

用二阶傅里叶系数$v_2$表征的带电强子方位各向异性测量,研究了在$\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$ \,TeV的Pb+Pb碰撞中产生的QCD介质中依赖于路径长度($L$)和横向动量($p_T$)的喷注猝灭斑图. $v_2$随$1/\sqrt{p_T}$线性减小,随$Ψ_2$事件平面内外的介质路径长度差($ΔL$)线性增大。这些模式补充了先前对射流淬火($R_{\rm AA}$)测量的缩放的观察。总之,他们认为,辐射部分子能量损失是一个占主导地位的机制,喷流抑制,$v_2$源于部分子传播长度$ΔL$.A估计的传输系数$\hat{q}$的差异,给出了一个值可与先前的研究中获得的标度特性的$R_{\rm AA}$。这些结果表明,高$p_T$方位各向异性测量为描绘部分子能量损失的机制以及$\hat{q}$的可靠提取提供了强有力的约束.

英文摘要:

Azimuthal anisotropy measurements for charged hadrons, characterized by the second order Fourier coefficient $v_2$, are used to investigate the path length ($L$) and transverse momentum ($p_T$) dependent jet quenching patterns of the QCD medium produced in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$\,TeV. $v_2$ shows a linear decrease as $1/\sqrt{p_T}$ and a linear increase with the medium path length difference ($ΔL$) in- and out of the $Ψ_2$ event plane. These patterns compliment a prior observation of the scaling of jet quenching ($R_{\rm AA}$) measurements. Together, they suggest that radiative parton energy loss is a dominant mechanism for jet suppression, and $v_2$ stems from the difference in the parton propagation length $ΔL$.An estimate of the transport coefficient $\hat{q}$, gives a value comparable to that obtained in a prior study of the scaling properties of $R_{\rm AA}$. These results suggest that high-$p_T$ azimuthal anisotropy measurements provide strong constraints for delineating the mechanism(s) for parton energy loss, as well as for reliable extraction of $\hat{q}$.
