Low-mass dilepton production in pp and AA collisions
We adopt a factorized QCD formalism to describe the transverse momentum distribution of lowmass lepton pairs produced in pp collisions, when the pair transverse momentum QT ≫ Q, with the pair’s invariant mass Q as low as Q ∼ ΛQCD. We extend this formalism to dilepton production in AA collisions by including the nuclear dependent power correction due to parton multiple scattering.
متن کاملThermal hadron production in high energy collisions
It is shown that hadron abundances in high energy ee, pp and pp̄ collisions, calculated by assuming that particles originate in hadron gas fireballs at thermal and partial chemical equilibrium, are in very good agreement with the data. The freeze-out temperature of the hadron gas fireballs turns out to be nearly constant over a large center of mass energy range and not dependent on the initial c...
متن کاملHigh-energy Hadron-induced Dilepton Production from Nucleons and Nuclei
We review the production of high-mass lepton pairs in fixed-target experiments, including both Drell-Yan (DY) and heavy quarkonium production (J/ψ, ψ, Υ(1S), Υ(2S), and Υ(3S)). In recent years DY data has become standard input to the determination of parton density distributions. DY data has recently yielded the first measurement of the x-dependence of the d̄/ū asymmetry of the proton. Similar t...
متن کاملCollective mechanism of dilepton production in high–energy nuclear collisions
Collective bremsstrahlung of vector meson fields in relativistic nuclear collisions is studied within the time–dependent Walecka model. Mutual deceleration of the colliding nuclei is described by introducing the effective stopping time and average rapidity loss of baryons. It is shown that electromagnetic decays of virtual ω–mesons produced by bremsstrahlung mechanism can provide a substantial ...
متن کاملResonant Slepton Production in Hadron–Hadron Collisions
We consider the resonant production of sleptons via 6Rp in hadron–hadron collisions followed by supersymmetric gauge decays of the sleptons. We look at decay modes which lead to the production of a like-sign dilepton pair. The dominant production mechanism giving this signature is the resonant production of a charged slepton followed by a decay to a charged lepton and a neutralino which then de...
