AI总结:

ALICE实验测量了在13 TeV质子-质子碰撞中,促发和非促发J/ψ介子携带的带电粒子喷注横向动量分数,并发现模拟结果在高z^ch区域与数据存在张力。

摘要:

ALICE合作组在欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机上报告了在质子-质子碰撞中,以√s=13 TeV的总能量测量促发和非促发J/ψ介子所携带的横向动量分数(z^ch)。该测量基于一个过渡辐射探测器触发的数据样本,对应的总流光子为L=1.63±0.03 pb^-1。通过电子-正电子衰变通道,在中间横坐标处重建出横向动量(p_T)高于1 GeV/c的包络J/ψ介子。通过二次顶点从美态粒子衰变中分离促发和非促发J/ψ贡献。使用反-k_T算法,以喷注分辨率参数R=0.4,在伪横坐标范围|η_jets|<0.5内,从J/ψ介子候选物和带电粒子中重建喷注。测量由促发和非促发J/ψ介子所携带的带电粒子喷注横向动量分数z^ch的分布,在喷注p_T范围7 < p_T^jet < 15 GeV/c内,z^ch的范围为0.3 < z^ch ≤ 1.0。测量的促发和非促发J/ψ的z^ch分布与pQCD计算和PYTHIA 8模拟进行比较。促发和非促发J/ψ在带电粒子喷注中的产生被发现,在z^ch<0.9时,PYTHIA 8能定性地再现,然而当z^ch接近1时,模拟结果超过测量数据,表明对孤立J/ψ分数的估计过高。在最高z^ch分组中观测到数据与模拟之间的张力反映了模拟低动量喷注的强子化过程的挑战。

英文摘要:

The measurement of the transverse-momentum fraction ($z^{\rm ch}$) carried by prompt and non-prompt J/$ψ$ in charged-particle jets in proton--proton collisions with a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}= 13$ TeV is reported by the ALICE Collaboration at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is based on a Transition Radiation Detector triggered data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $\mathcal{L} = 1.63\pm0.03$ pb$^{-1}$. Inclusive J/$ψ$ mesons with transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) above 1 GeV/$c$ are reconstructed at midrapidity through the electron--positron decay channel. The prompt and non-prompt J/$ψ$ contributions are separated using the secondary vertices from beauty-hadron decays. Jets are reconstructed from J/$ψ$-meson candidates and charged particles using the anti-$k_{\rm T}$ algorithm with jet resolution parameter $R = 0.4$ in the pseudorapidity range $|η_{\text{jet}}| < 0.5$. The distribution of the charged-particle jet $p_{\rm T}$ fraction carried by the prompt and non-prompt J/$ψ$ mesons, $z^{\rm ch}$, is measured in the range $0.3 < z^{\rm ch} \leq 1.0$ for the jet-$ p_{\rm T}$ range $7 < p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet} < 15$ GeV/$c$. The measured $z^{\rm ch}$ distributions for prompt and non-prompt J/$ψ$ are compared to pQCD calculations and PYTHIA 8 simulations. Prompt and non-prompt J/$ψ$ production within charged-particle jets are found to be qualitatively well reproduced by PYTHIA 8 for $z^{\rm ch}<0.9$, however, as $z^{\rm ch}$ approaches one, the simulations overshoot the measured data, indicating an overestimation of the fraction of isolated J/$ψ$. This observed tension between data and simulations in the highest $z^{\rm ch}$ bins reflects the challenge of simulating hadronization of low-momentum jets.
