在STAR上测量$Υ$产生和核修饰因子

Measurements of $Υ$ Production and Nuclear Modification Factor at STAR

Anthony Kesich

摘要:

在重离子碰撞中,由于夸克-反夸克势的德拜屏蔽,夸克偶素产生的热抑制被认为是夸克-胶子等离子体(QGP)形成的一个明显特征。在RHIC能量下,由于\bbbar复合的增强和共动子吸收的非热抑制可以忽略不计,$Υ$介子是早期系统的干净探针。本文报道了在$\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ =200 GeV的Au+Au碰撞中的$Υ\to e^+ e^-$截面的测量结果。我们通过将这些结果与2009年的新p+p测量值进行比较来计算核修改因子(2009年为21 pb $^{-1}$,而2006年为7.9 pb $^{-1}$)。为了有一个完整的评估热和冷的核物质的影响,我们还报告了从d+Au碰撞的结果。

英文摘要:

Thermal suppression of quarkonium production in heavy-ion collisions, due to Debye screening of the quark-antiquark potential, has been proposed as a clear signature of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) formation. At RHIC energies, the $Υ$ meson is a clean probe of the early system due to negligible levels of enhancement from \bbbar recombination and non-thermal suppression from co-mover absorption. We report on our measurement of the $Υ\to e^+ e^-$ cross section in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV. We compute the Nuclear Modification Factor by comparing these results to new p+p measurements from 2009 (21 pb$^{-1}$ in 2009 compared to 7.9 pb$^{-1}$ in 2006). In order to have a complete assessment of both hot and cold nuclear matter effects on Upsilon production we also report on results from d+Au collisions.
