Abstract

We present a good description of recent experimental data on forward dihadron azimuthal correlations measured in deuteron-gold collisions at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), where monojet production has been observed. Our approach is based on the color glass condensate theory for the small-x degrees of freedom of the nuclear wave function, including the use of nonlinear evolution equations with running QCD coupling. Our analysis provides further evidence for the presence of saturation effects in RHIC data.

Hierarchy of Azimuthal Anisotropy Harmonics in Collisions of Small Systems from the Color Glass Condensate

Journal Article Mace, Mark ; Skokov, Vladimir V. ; Tribedy, Prithwish ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We demonstrate that the striking systematics of two-particle azimuthal Fourier harmonics $${v}_{2}$$ and $${v}_{3}$$ in ultrarelativistic collisions of protons, deuterons, and helium-3 ions off gold nuclei measured by the PHENIX Collaboration at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is reproduced in the color glass condensate effective field theory. This contradicts the claim in C. Aidala et al. (PHENIX Collaboration), arXiv:1805.02973, that their data rule out initial state-based explanations. The underlying systematics of the effect, as discussed previously in K. Dusling, M. Mace, R. Venugopalan, Phys. Rev. D 97, 016014 (2018); Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 042002 (2018); Proc.

Azimuthal Angle Correlations for Rapidity Separated Hadron Pairs in d+Au Collisions at {radical}(s{sub NN})=200 GeV

Journal Article Adler, S S ; Aronson, S H ; Chujo, T ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Deuteron-gold (d+Au) collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider provide ideal platforms for testing QCD theories in dense nuclear matter at high energy. In particular, models suggesting strong saturation effects for partons carrying small nucleon momentum fraction (x) predict modifications to jet production at forward rapidity (deuteron-going direction) in d+Au collisions. We report on two-particle azimuthal angle correlations between charged hadrons at forward/backward (deuteron/gold going direction) rapidity and charged hadrons at midrapidity in d+Au and p+p collisions at {radical}(s{sub NN})=200 GeV. Jet structures observed in the correlations are quantified in terms of the conditional yield and angular width of away-sidemore »« less

Identified particle production, azimuthal anisotropy, and interferometry measurements in Au+Au collisions at sq root(s{sub NN})=9.2 GeV

Journal Article Abelev, B I ; Barannikova, O ; Betts, R R ; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

We present the first measurements of identified hadron production, azimuthal anisotropy, and pion interferometry from Au+Au collisions below the nominal injection energy at the BNL Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) facility. The data were collected using the large acceptance solenoidal tracker at RHIC (STAR) detector at sq root(s{sub NN})=9.2 GeV from a test run of the collider in the year 2008. Midrapidity results on multiplicity density dN/dy in rapidity y, average transverse momentum <p{sub T}>, particle ratios, elliptic flow, and Hanbury-Brown-Twiss (HBT) radii are consistent with the corresponding results at similar sq root(s{sub NN}) from fixed-target experiments. Directed flow measurements aremore »« less

Forward {lambda} production and nuclear stopping power in d+Au collisions at {radical}(s{sub NN})=200 GeV

Journal Article Abelev, B I ; Barannikova, O ; Betts, R R ; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

We report the measurement of {lambda} and {lambda} yields and inverse slope parameters in d+Au collisions at {radical}(s{sub NN})=200 GeV at forward and backward rapidities (y={+-}2.75), using data from the STAR forward time projection chambers. The contributions of different processes to baryon transport and particle production are probed exploiting the inherent asymmetry of the d+Au system. Comparisons to model calculations show that baryon transport on the deuteron side is consistent with multiple collisions of the deuteron nucleons with gold participants. On the gold side, HIJING-based models without a hadronic rescattering phase do not describe the measured particle yields, while modelsmore »« less
