In search of chiral magnetic effect: Separating flow-driven background effects and quantifying anomaly-induced charge separations

Journal Article Xu -Guang Huang ; Yin, Yi ; Liao, Jinfeng - Nuclear Physics. A

Here we report our recent progress on the search of Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) by developing new measurements as well as by hydrodynamic simulations of CME and background effects, with both approaches addressing the pressing issue of separating flow-driven background contributions and possible CME signal in current heavy ion collision measurements.

Importance of non-flow background on the chiral magnetic wave search

Journal Article Xu, Hao-jie ; Zhao, Jie ; Feng, Yicheng ; ... - Nuclear Physics. A

We report an observable sensitive to the chiral magnetic wave (CMW) is the charge asymmetry dependence of the π^- and π⁺ anisotropic flow difference, Δv_n(A_ch). We show that, due to non-flow correlations, the flow measurements by the Q-cumulant method using all charged particles as reference introduce a trivial linear term to Δv_n(A_ch). The trivial slope contribution to the triangle flow difference Δv₃(A_ch) can be negative if the non-flow is dominated by back-to-back pairs. This can explain the observed negative Δv₃(A_ch) slope in the preliminary STAR data. We further find that the non-flow correlations give rise to additional backgrounds to themore »« less

Pair Invariant Mass to Isolate Background in the Search for the Chiral Magnetic Effect in Au+Au Collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV

Journal Article Adam, J. ; Adamczyk, L. ; Adams, J. R. ; ... - Physical Review. C. Nuclear Physics

Quark interactions with topological gluon configurations can induce local chirality imbalance and parity violation in quantum chromodynamics, which can lead to the chiral magnetic effect (CME)-an electric charge separation along the strong magnetic field in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The CME-sensitive azimuthal correlator observable (Delta gamma) is contaminated by background arising, in part, from resonance decays coupled with elliptic anisotropy (v(2)). We report here differential measurements of the correlator as a function of the pair invariant mass (m(inv)) in 20-50% centrality Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV by the STAR experiment at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ionmore »« less
