Particle production azimuthal asymmetries in a clustering of color sources
نویسندگان
چکیده
The collective interactions of many partons in the first stage of the collisions is the usual accepted explanation of the sizable elliptical flow. The clustering of color sources provides a natural framework of partonic interactions. In this scheme, we show a reasonable agreement with RHIC data in both the dependence of v 2 on transverse momentum and in the shape of the nuclear modified factor on the azimuthal angle for different centralities. We show the predictions at LHC energies for Pb-Pb. In the case of proton-proton collisions a sizable v 2 is obtained at this energy.

متن کاملUniversality of T-odd effects in single spin and azimuthal asymmetries
We analyze the transverse-momentum-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions in space-like and time-like hard processes involving at least two hadrons, in particular, 1-particle inclusive leptoproduction, the Drell–Yan process and two-particle inclusive hadron production in electron–positron annihilation. As is well known, transverse momentum dependence allows for the appearance of uns...
متن کاملColor entanglement for azimuthal asymmetries in the Drell-Yan process.
In the resummation of collinear gluons emitted together with active partons from the hadrons in the Drell-Yan process, effects of color entanglement become important when the transverse directions are taken into account. It is then no longer possible to write the cross section as the convolution of two soft correlators and a hard part. We show that the color entanglement introduces additional c...
متن کاملA model independent spin analysis of fundamental particles using azimuthal asymmetries
Exploiting the azimuthal angle dependence of the density matrices we construct observables that directly measure the spin of a heavy unstable particle. A novelty of the approach is that the analysis of the azimuthal angle dependence in a frame other than the usual helicity frame offers an independent cross-check on the extraction of the spin. Moreover, in some instances when the transverse pola...
متن کاملAzimuthal asymmetries in semi - inclusive leptoproduction ‡
We point out the role of intrinsic transverse momentum of partons in the study of azimuthal asymmetries in deep-inelastic 1-particle inclusive leptoproduction. Leading asymmetries often appear in combination with spin asymmetries. This leads not only to transverse momentum dependence in the parton distribution functions, but also to functions beyond the ones known from inclusive deep-inelastic ...
