Coherence Time in High Energy Proton-nucleus Collisions
Precisely measured Drell-Yan cross sections for 800 GeV protons incident on a variety of nuclear targets exhibit a deviation from linear scaling in the atomic number A. We show that this deviation can be accounted for by energy degradation of the proton as it passes through the nucleus if account is taken of the time delay of particle production due to quantum coherence. We infer an average pro...
متن کاملQuark production in high energy proton-nucleus collisions
In this note, we discuss the problem of quark-antiquark pair production in the framework of the color glass condensate. The cross-section can be calculated in closed form for the case of proton-nucleus collisions, where the proton can be considered to be a dilute object. We find that k⊥-factorization is broken by rescattering effects. PACS. 11.80.La Multiple scattering – 11.15.Kc Classical and ...
متن کاملPhoton + Hadron Production in High Energy Deuteron (Proton)-Nucleus Collisions
We apply the Color Glass Condensate formalism to photon + hadron production cross section in high energy deuteron (proton)-gold collisions at RHIC. We investigate the dependence of the production cross section on the angle between the produced hadron and photon for various rapidities and transverse momenta. It is shown that the angular correlation between the produced hadron and photon is a sen...
متن کاملPhoton production in high energy proton-nucleus collisions
We calculate the photon production cross-section in pA collisions under the assumption that the nucleus has reached the saturation regime, while the proton can be described by the standard parton distribution functions. We show that due to the strong classical field O(1/g) of the nucleus, bremsstrahlung diagrams become dominant over the direct photon diagrams. In particular, we show that γ−jet ...
متن کاملDrell - Yan and J / ψ production in high energy proton - nucleus and nucleus - nucleus collisions ∗
The distributions of outgoing protons and charged hadrons in high energy protonnucleus collisions are described rather well by a linear extrapolation from proton-proton collisions. This linear extrapolation is applied to precisely measured Drell-Yan cross sections for 800 GeV protons incident on a variety of nuclear targets. The deviation from linear scaling in the atomic number A can be accoun...
