Nuclear Effects in High Energy Photon and Neutral Pion Production
The nuclear enhancement of particle production, known as the Cronin effect, 1 received recent experimental attention by E706, 2 studying the high pT pion and direct photon production. In this talk we concentrate on direct photon and neutral pion production and propose a new physical mechanism responsible for the increase of the production rate in nuclear targets. Parton cross sections are calcu...
متن کاملThermal photon production in high-energy nuclear collisions.
We use a boost-invariant one-dimensional (cylindrically symmetric) fluid dynamics code to calculate thermal photon production in the central rapidity region of S+Au and Pb+Pb collisions at SPS energy ( √ s = 20 GeV/nucleon). We assume that the hot matter is in thermal equilibrium throughout the expansion, but consider deviations from chemical equilibrium in the high temperature (deconfined) pha...
متن کاملHigh-energy resummation in direct photon production
We present the computation of the direct photon production cross-section in perturbative QCD to all orders in the limit of high partonic center-of-mass energy. We show how the high-energy resummation can be performed consistently in the presence of a collinear singularity in the final state, we compare our results to the fixed order NLO cross-section in MS scheme, and we provide predictions at ...
متن کاملSelected Topics in High Energy Semi - Exclusive Electro - Nuclear Reactions
We review the present status of the theory of high energy reactions with semi-exclusive nucleon electro-production from nuclear targets. We demonstrate how the increase of transferred energies in these reactions opens a complete new window in studying the microscopic nuclear structure at small distances. The simplifications in theoretical descriptions associated with the increase of the energie...
متن کاملLow Energy Nuclear Reactions
Character and Role of Theory Storms’ view of where and how low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) occur has been called a theory, so we begin with an examination of the character of a scientific theory. A compact summary about theory in any science is available in Wikipedia: “A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that ...
