Leading hadron azimuthal correlations in ALICE central barrel
نویسندگان
چکیده
Leading hadron azimuthal angular correlations in the ALICE central barrel are studied with the HIJING event generator employing scenarios with and without inmedium jet quenching. We investigate the potential of leading hadron correlation studies in the high multiplicity environment of a Pb-Pb collision at √ sNN = 5.5 TeV in the central barrel of the ALICE detector.

Prospects for identified leading particle correlation at LHC and in ALICE
Azimuthal di-hadron correlations play important role in the characterization of the medium created in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. Moreover, as a novel phenomenon, strong modification of the away-side correlation is observed in Au+Au with respect to p+p collisions. Below the exclusive jet reconstruction threshold at LHC, leading particle correlations will provide access to the regime where har...
متن کاملALICE diffractive physics in p-p and Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC
The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider LHC is presently being commissioned. ALICE consists of a central barrel, a muon spectrometer and neutron calorimeters at 00. Additional detectors for event classification and trigger purposes are located on both sides of the central barrel. The geometry of the ALICE detector allows the implementation of a diffractive double gap trigger by requir...

The analysis of two-particle azimuthal angular correlations at high transverse momentum from Pb+Au collisions at 158 AGeV/c at SPS reveals substantial modifications of the away-side peak as compared to the distributions from p+p reactions. The data recorded with the CERES Time-Projection Chamber, which provides excellent tracking efficiency, suggest that the observed modification of the back-to...

متن کاملThe Time Projection Chamber for the ALICE Experiment
ALICE [1] will search for evidence of the quark-gluon plasma—a state of matter which is believed to have existed just after the Big Bang—in head-on collisions of lead-ions at the LHC. It will also be used to study the properties of proton-proton collisions. The trajectories of thousands of charged particles produced in central lead-lead collisions have to be measured and the particles have to b...
