Production of jets at forward rapidities in hadronic collisions
Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will explore the region of large rapidities both with general-purpose detectors and with dedicated instrumentation, including forward calorimeters and proton taggers [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. The LHC forward-physics program involves a wide range of topics, from new particle discovery processes [3, 8, 9] to new aspects of strong interaction physics [7,...
متن کاملNeutral Pion Suppression at Forward Rapidities in d+Au Collisions at STAR
Measurements of the inclusive yields of π0 mesons in p+p and d+Au collisions at center of mass energy √ sNN = 200GeV and pseudorapidity 〈η〉 = 4.00 (d beam direction) are reported. The yield for p+p collisions is in general agreement with perturbative QCD calculations. The d+Au yield is in agreement with a calculation which models the Au nucleus as a Color Glass Condensate for forward particle p...
متن کاملProduction of Forward Rapidity Photons in High Energy Heavy Ion Collisions
We consider production of prompt photons in high energy gold-gold and deuterongold collisions in the forward rapidity region of RHIC (y ∼ 3.8). In this kinematics, the projectile partons typically have large xbj while the target partons are mostly at very small xbj so that the primary partonic collisions involve valence quarks from the projectile and gluons from the target. We take the target n...
متن کاملMuon production in the forward and backward rapidities in dAu collisions at RHIC
We have developed new techniques to detect hadrons with the PHENIX muon spectrometers. This allows us to study the centrality dependent nuclear modification factor RCP with high pT hadrons in both forward (d direction) and backward (Au direction) rapidities, 1 < |η| < 2, in d-Au collisions atsNN = 200GeV . Preliminary results show a suppression (enhancement) of high pT hadron production in cent...
متن کاملDirect Photons in Nuclear Collisions at FAIR Energies
Using the extrapolation of existing data estimations of prompt photon production at FAIR energies have been made. At y = yc.m. the rapidity density of prompt photons with pt > 1.5 GeV/c per central Au+Au event at 25 AGeV is estimated as ∼ 10 . With the planed beam intensity 10 per second and 1% interaction probability, for 10% of most central events one can expect the prompt photon rate ∼ 10 ph...
