Production of e+e- Pairs Accompanied by Nuclear Dissociation in Ultra-peripheral Heavy Ion Collisions

Journal Article Adams, J ; Adler, C ; Aggarwal, M M ; ... - Physical Review C

We present the first data on e{sup +}e{sup -} pair production accompanied by nuclear breakup in ultra-peripheral gold-gold collisions at a center of mass energy of 200 GeV per nucleon pair. The nuclear breakup requirement selects events at small impact parameters, where higher-order corrections to the pair production cross section should be enhanced. We compare the pair kinematic distributions with two calculations: one based on the equivalent photon approximation, and the other using lowest-order quantum electrodynamics (QED); the latter includes the photon virtuality. The cross section, pair mass, rapidity and angular distributions are in good agreement with both calculations. Themore »« less

Lattice calculation of dilepton production in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Conference Oberacker, V E ; Umar, A S ; Strayer, M R ; ...

In this talk, I will concentrate on electromagnetic dilepton production in peripheral heavy-ion collisions at relativistic energies. For very heavy systems such as Au + Au,U + U the effective coupling constant Z/alpha/ /approx/ 0.5, thus casting doubt on the applicability of perturbation theory. We shall therefore utilize a nonperturbative lattice approach. The main problem to be solved is the Dirac equation for leptons in the presence of strong transient EM fields (E/sub max/ = 10/sup 25/V/m for U + U at RHIC energies). There are several motivations for these studies: We will be able to probe nonperturbative QED inmore »« less
Lepton pair production through two photon process in heavy ion collisions

Journal Article Klein, Spencer ; Mueller, A. H. ; Xiao, Bo-Wen ; ... - Physical Review D

This paper investigates the electromagnetic production of lepton pairs with low total transverse momentum in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. First, we estimate the initial photons' transverse momentum contributions by employing models where the average transverse momentum squared of the incoming photon can be calculated in the equivalent photon approximation. We further derive an all order QED resummation for the soft photon radiation, which gives an excellent description of the ATLAS data in ultraperipheral collisions at the LHC. For peripheral and central collisions, additional pT-broadening effects from multiple interactions with the medium and the magnetic field contributions from the quark-gluon plasma aremore » also discussed.« less

Convergence of a lattice calculation for bound-free muon-pair production in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Journal Article Wells, J C ; Oberacker, V E ; Strayer, M R ; ... - Physical Review A

We have developed a nonperturbative treatment of bound-free lepton-pair production caused by the strong and sharply pulsed electromagnetic fields generated by heavy ions in peripheral, relativistic collisions based on the solution of the time-dependent Dirac equation using lattice techniques. In this paper, we discuss refinements and extensions of our numerical methods for this problem and demonstrate convergent calculations, with respect to the parameters of the lattice, for bound-free muon-pair production in collisions near grazing incidence of {sup 238}U{sup 92+}+{sup 238}U{sup 92+} and beam kinetic energies of 30 GeV per nucleon in the fixed-target frame. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physicalmore » Society.}« less

Nonperturbative electromagnetic muon-pair production with capture in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Conference Wells, J C ; Oberacker, V E ; Umar, A S ; ...

We discuss preliminary calculations of impact-parameter-dependent probabilities and cross sections for muon-pair production with capture of the negative muon into the K-shell of the target caused by the time-dependent electromagnetic fields generated in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Our approach is nonperturbative in that we calculate probabilities by solving the time-dependent Dirac equation on a three-dimensional Cartesian lattice using the basis-spline collocation method. Use of the axial gauge for the electromagnetic potentials produces an interaction easier to implement on the lattice than the Lorentz gauge. 19 refs., 5 figs.
