Nucleus-nucleus Bremsstrahlung from Ultrarelativistic Collisions
The bremsstrahlung produced when heavy nuclei collide is estimated for central collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Soft photons can be used to infer the rapidity distribution of the outgoing charge. An experimental design is outlined. 25.75.-q, 13.40.-f Typeset using REVTEX ∗[email protected] †[email protected] ‡[email protected] §sansweiss@hepmai...
متن کاملClassical Gluon Radiation in Ultrarelativistic Nucleus–Nucleus Collisions
The classical Yang–Mills equations are solved perturbatively in covariant gauge for a collision of two ultrarelativistic nuclei. The nuclei are taken as ensembles of classical color charges on eikonal trajectories. The classical gluon field is computed in coordinate space up to cubic order in the coupling constant g. We construct the Feynman diagrams corresponding to this field and show the equ...
متن کاملSuppression of soft nuclear bremsstrahlung in proton-nucleus collisions.
Photon energy spectra up to the kinematic limit have been measured in 190 MeV proton reactions with light and heavy nuclei to investigate the influence of the multiple-scattering process on the photon production. Relative to the predictions of models based on a quasifree production mechanism, a strong suppression of bremsstrahlung is observed in the low-energy region of the photon spectrum. We ...
متن کاملSaturating Cronin effect in ultrarelativistic proton-nucleus collisions
Experimental results on pion and photon production in high-energy hadron-nucleus collisions show an extra increase at high transverse momentum (pT ) over what would be expected based on a simple scaling of the appropriate proton-proton (pp) cross sections. The nuclear enhancement is referred to as the Cronin effect [1], and is most relevant at moderate transverse momenta (3 GeV ∼ pT ∼ 6 GeV) [2...
متن کاملLinear Extrapolation of Ultrarelativistic Nucleon-nucleon Scattering to Nucleus-nucleus Collisions
We use a Glauber-like approach to describe very energetic nucleus-nucleus collisions as a sequence of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions. No free parameters are needed: all the information comes from simple parametrizations of nucleon-nucleon collision data. Produced mesons are assumed not to interact with each other or with the original baryons. Comparisons are made to published experimental me...
