Measurement of the D0 Meson Production in Pb–Pb and p–Pb Collisions
Author: Andrea Festanti
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319434551
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
This thesis presents the first measurement of charmed D0 meson production relative to the reaction plane in Pb–Pb collisions at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of √sNN = 2.76 TeV. It also showcases the measurement of the D0 production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement of the D0 azimuthal anisotropy with respect to the reaction plane indicates that low- momentum charm quarks participate in the collective expansion of the high-density, strongly interacting medium formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, despite their large mass. This behavior can be explained by charm hadronization via recombination with light quarks from the medium and collisional energy loss. The measurement of the D0 production in p–Pb collisions is crucial to separate the effect induced by cold nuclear matter from the final- state effects induced by the hot medium formed in Pb–Pb collisions. The D0 production in p–Pb collisions is consistent with the binary collision scaling of the production in pp collisions, demonstrating that the modification of the momentum distribution observed in Pb–Pb collisions with respect to pp is predominantly induced by final-state effects such as the charm energy loss.

Exclusive Production of Neutral Vector Mesons at the Electron-Proton Collider HERA
Author: James A. Crittenden
Publisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
The first five years of operation of the two multi-purpose experiments ZEUS and H1 at the HERA electron--proton storage ring facility in Hamburg, Germany have opened a new era in the study of diffractive vector-meson production in high-energy photon--proton interactions. This book provides readers who have a general knowledge of the concepts and experimental techniques of elementary particle physics with the information necessary to assess the status of the new investigations prior to the end of 1996. The measurements are placed in the rich historical context of earlier studies of photo- and leptoproduction of vector mesons.

Strange and Non-Strange D-meson Production in pp, p-Pb, and Pb-Pb Collisions with ALICE at the LHC
Author: Fabrizio Grosa
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030711315
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
This thesis provides a comprehensive view of the physics of charmed hadrons in high-energy proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. Given their large masses, charm quarks are produced in the early stage of a heavy-ion collision and they subsequently experience the full system evolution probing the colour-deconfined medium called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in such collisions. In this thesis, the mechanisms of charm-quark in-medium energy loss and hadronisation are discussed via the measurements of the production of charm mesons with (Ds+) and without (D+) strange-quark content in different colliding systems, using data collected by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. The participation of the charm quark and its possible thermalisation in the QGP are studied via measurements of azimuthal anisotropies in the production of D+ mesons. Finally, the prospects for future measurements with the upgraded ALICE experimental apparatus and with more refined machine learning techniques are presented.

Multiple Meson Production in Emulsions Exposed to the Bevatron Beam
Author: William R. Johnson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Mesons
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Stacks of 600-micron Ilford G.5 stripped emulsions have been exposed to the internal beam of the Bevatron at three energies: 3.2, 4.8, and 5.7 Bev. Shower-particle production has been investigated at these energies. (A shower particle is defined as one whose grain density is less than 1.4 times minimum.) At each energy 114 events which had beam protons for primaries were found by area scanning. The average shower particle multiplicities per event were found to be 0.94 ℗± 0.09, 1.30 ℗± 0.11, and 1.62 ℗± 0.11. These results are compared with similar observations by cosmic-ray workers. The various theories of meson production are reviewed and Fermi's calculations for Cosmotron energies have been extended to the energies of this experiment. Production differences in heavy and light nuclei are discussed and compared.
