pA碰撞中夸克对产生的方位不对称性

Azimuthal asymmetries for quark pair production in pA collisions

Emin Akcakaya, Andreas Schäfer, Jian Zhou

摘要:

我们研究了质子-核碰撞中夸克对产生的方位角不对称性,使用混合方法,其中核被处理在彩色玻璃凝聚体(CGC)框架中,而Lipatov近似被应用于质子侧。我们的处理超出了N_c的大极限。我们特别关注所谓的关联极限,即夸克对的横动量的不平衡比单个夸克的横动量小得多。在这个运动学区域中,我们发现了混合方法和因子分解法在横向动量相关部分子分布(TMD)方面的匹配,并指出了各种非极化和线极化胶子TMD分布中哪一种分布对夸克对产生的$\cos 2 ϕ$和$\cos 4 ϕ$调制有贡献.

英文摘要:

We study the azimuthal asymmetries for quark pair production in proton-nucleus collisions using a hybrid approach in which the nucleus is treated in the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework while the Lipatov approximation is applied on the proton side. Our treatment goes beyond the large N_c limit. We particularly focus on the so-called correlation limit where the imbalance of the transverse momentum of the quark pair is much smaller than the out-going individual quark transverse momenta. In this kinematic region, a matching between the hybrid approach and a factorization in terms of transverse momentum dependent parton distributions(TMDs) has been found. It is shown which of the various unpolarized and linearly polarized gluon TMD distributions contribute to $\cos 2 ϕ$ and $\cos 4 ϕ$ modulations of quark pair production.
