Heavy Flavor and Jet Studies for the Future Electron-Ion Collider to Explore the Hadronization Process
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
Heavy flavor production at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will allow us to precisely determine the quark/gluon fragmentation processes in vacuum and the nuclear medium especially within the poorly constrained kinematic region. Heavy flavor hadron and jet reconstructions with the recent EIC detector design have been studied in simulation. Results of corresponding physics projections such as the flavor dependent hadron nuclear modification factor $$R_{eA}$$ in electron+nucleus collisions will be shown. The statistical precision obtained by these proposed heavy flavor measurements for the future EIC provides a strong discriminating power in separating different theoretical predictions.
