ATLAS Collaboration

摘要:

利用2011年在大型强子对撞机上进行的ATLAS实验测量了$\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76$ TeV Pb+Pb碰撞中的瞬发光子产生,获得了$^{-1}$积分亮度为0.14 nb的数据。包容性的光子产额,缩放的平均核厚度函数,作为碰撞中心和横动量的函数在两个赝快度间隔,$|η| < 1.37$和$1.52 < |η| < 2.37$。在两个赝快度区间的标度产量,以及在midrapidity的正向产量的比率,进行了比较,从次到领先的阶微扰QCD计算JETPHOX的预期。测量的截面与质子-质子碰撞的预测在统计和系统的不确定性。这两个产率和比率也进行了比较,其他两个pQCD计算,其中一个使用的同位旋内容适当的碰撞铅核,另一个包括EPS 09核修改的核子部分子分布函数。

英文摘要:

Prompt photon production in $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76$ TeV Pb+Pb collisions has been measured by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider using data collected in 2011 with an integrated luminosity of 0.14 nb$^{-1}$. Inclusive photon yields, scaled by the mean nuclear thickness function, are presented as a function of collision centrality and transverse momentum in two pseudorapidity intervals, $|η| < 1.37$ and $1.52 < |η| < 2.37$. The scaled yields in the two pseudorapidity intervals, as well as the ratios of the forward yields to those at midrapidity, are compared to the expectations from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations from JETPHOX. The measured cross sections agree well with the predictions for proton-proton collisions within statistical and systematic uncertainties. Both the yields and ratios are also compared to two other pQCD calculations, one which uses the isospin content appropriate to colliding lead nuclei, and another which includes the EPS09 nuclear modifications to the nucleon parton distribution functions.
