PHENIX中快度直接光子和中性介子的横向单自旋不对称性

Transverse Single-Spin Asymmetries of Midrapidity Direct Photons and Neutral Mesons at PHENIX

Nicole Lewis

摘要:

本文给出了在PHENIX实验中$p^\uparrow + p$与$\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV碰撞的$|η|<0.35$的直接光子、中性π介子和η介子的横向单自旋不对称性的结果。作为强子,$π^0$和$η$介子对初态和终态效应都很敏感,并且在中速度探测胶子的动力学以及夸克的混合味道。由于直接光子产生不包括强子化,直接光子TSSA只对初态效应敏感,并且在中快度下提供了横向极化质子中胶子动力学的干净探针。所有这三个结果将有助于约束共线扭曲3三胶子关联函数以及胶子Sivers函数,提高我们的知识自旋相关胶子动力学在QCD。

英文摘要:

Results are presented for the transverse single-spin asymmetries of direct photons, neutral pions, and eta mesons for $|η|<0.35$ from $p^\uparrow + p$ collisions with $\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV at PHENIX. As hadrons, $π^0$ and $η$ mesons are sensitive to both initial- and final-state effects and at midrapidity probe the dynamics of gluons along with a mix of quark flavors. Because direct photon production does not include hadronization, the direct photon TSSA is only sensitive to initial-state effects and at midrapidity provides a clean probe of the gluon dynamics in transversely polarized protons. All three of these results will help constrain the collinear twist-3 trigluon correlation function as well as the gluon Sivers function, improving our knowledge of spin-dependent gluon dynamics in QCD.
