Constraining in-medium heavy-quark energy-loss mechanisms via angular correlations between heavy and light mesons
Two-particle correlations obtained from parton showers that pass the hot and dense medium of the quark gluon plasma (QGP) can be used as an alternative observable, in addition to the combination of the nuclear modification factor RAA and the elliptic flow v2, to study the mechanisms of in-medium heavy quark energy-loss. In particular, angular correlations represent a promising tool to distingui...
متن کاملHeavy quark energy loss in a nuclear medium.
Multiple scattering, modified fragmentation functions, and radiative energy loss of a heavy-quark propagating in a nuclear medium are investigated in perturbative QCD. Because of the quark mass dependence of the gluon formation time, the medium size dependence of heavy-quark energy loss is found to change from a linear to a quadratic form when the initial energy and momentum scale are increased...
متن کاملAsymmetry of in - medium ρ - mesons as a signature of Cherenkov effects
Asymmetry of in-medium ρ-mesons as a signature of Cherenkov effects Abstract Cherenkov gluons may be responsible for the asymmetry of dilep-ton mass spectra near ρ-meson observed in experiment. They can be produced only in the low-mass wing of the resonance. Therefore the dilepton mass spectra are flattened there and their peak is slightly shifted to lower masses compared with the in-vacuum ρ-m...
متن کاملCherenkov radiations from Quark Plasma
I propose an observable to declare the formation of Quark Plasma (QP) without any doubts. It is the observation of Cherenkov photon radiations of the order of 100 MeV associated with fast light charged particles while they are penetrating hot dense mediums produced in high energy heavy ion collisions. Direct observations of Cherenkov rings associated with charged leptons decayed from Z boson or...
متن کاملQuark energy loss in an expanding quark-gluon plasma
We study the quark energy loss in an expanding quark-gluon plasma. The expanding plasma produced in high energy AA-collision is described by Bjorken’s model. The dependence of the energy loss on the infrared cutoff for the radiated gluons, on the quark mass, and on the initial conditions of QCD plasma is investigated. Study of the induced gluon radiation from a fast quark in a quark-gluon plasm...
