摘要:
Measurements of two-particle correlations on angular difference variables eta(1)-eta(2) (pseudorapidity) and phi(1)-phi(2) (azimuth) are presented for all primary charged hadrons with transverse momentum 0.15 <= p(t)<= 2 GeV/c and vertical bar eta vertical bar <= 1.3 from Au-Au collisions at root s(NN)=130 GeV. Large-amplitude correlations are observed over a broad range in relative angles where distinct structures appear on the same-side and away-side (i.e., relative azimuth less than pi/2 or greater than pi/2). The principal correlation structures include that associated with elliptic flow plus a strong, same-side peak. It is hypothesized that the latter results from correlated hadrons associated with semi-hard parton scattering in the early stage of the heavy-ion collision which produces a jet-like correlation peak at small relative angles. The width of the jet-like peak on eta(1)-eta(2) increases by a factor 2.3 from peripheral to central collisions, suggesting strong coupling of semi-hard scattered partons to a longitudinally-expanding medium. The new methods of jet analysis introduced here provide access to scattered partons at low transverse momentum well below the kinematic range where perturbative quantum chromodynamics and standard fragmentation models are applicable.

摘要:
The design and implementation of the BESⅢ online data acquisition system test farm with PC, Linux and other free software are presented. The system has been running smoothly and provided good feedback and diagnose for the online software. It will be ported to the real online system. The idea presented here can be applied to other purpose farm, such as a physics analysis farm, too.

摘要:
We present the centrality-dependent measurement of multiplicity and pseudorapidity distributions of charged particles and photons in Au+Au collisions at root s(NN)=62.4 GeV. The charged particles and photons are measured in the pseudorapidity region 2.9 <=eta <= 3.9 and 2.3 <=eta <= 3.7, respectively. We have studied the scaling of particle production with the number of participating nucleons and the number of binary collisions. The photon and charged particle production in the measured pseudorapidity range has been shown to be consistent with energy-independent limiting fragmentation behavior. Photons are observed to follow a centrality-independent limiting fragmentation behavior, while for charged particles it is centrality dependent. We have carried out a comparative study of the pseudorapidity distributions of positively charged hadrons, negatively charged hadrons, photons, pions, and net protons in nucleus-nucleus collisions and pseudorapidity distributions from p+p collisions. From these comparisons, we conclude that baryons in the inclusive charged particle distribution are responsible for the observed centrality dependence of limiting fragmentation. The mesons are found to follow an energy-independent behavior of limiting fragmentation, whereas the behavior of baryons is energy dependent.

摘要:
We present the first statistically meaningful results from two-K-s(0) interferometry in heavy-ion collisions at root s(NN)=200 GeV. A model that takes the effect of the strong interaction into account has been used to fit the measured correlation function. The effects of single and coupled channels were explored. At the mean transverse mass < m(T)>=1.07 GeV, we obtain the values R=4.09 +/- 0.46(stat)+/- 0.31(sys) fm and lambda=0.92 +/- 0.23(stat)+/- 0.13(sys), where R and lambda are the invariant radius and chaoticity parameters, respectively. The results are qualitatively consistent with m(T) systematics established with pions in a scenario characterized by a strong collective flow.

摘要:
We present the first measurements of charge-dependent correlations on angular difference variables eta(1) - eta(2) (pseudorapidity) and phi(1) - phi(2) (azimuth) for primary charged hadrons with transverse momentum 0.15 <= p(t) <= 2 GeV/c and vertical bar eta vertical bar <= 1.3 from Au-Au collisions at root(s)NN = 130 GeV. We observe correlation structures not predicted by theory but consistent with evolution of hadron emission geometry with increasing centrality from one-dimensional fragmentation of color strings along the beam direction to an at least two-dimensional hadronization geometry along the beam and azimuth directions of a hadron-opaque bulk medium.

摘要:
We report on p-Lambda, p-(Lambda) over bar, (p) over bar-Lambda, and (p) over bar-(Lambda) over bar correlation functions constructed in central Au-Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV by the STAR experiment at RHIC. The proton and lambda source size is inferred from the p-Lambda and (p) over bar-(Lambda) over bar correlation functions. It is found to be smaller than the pion source size also measured by the STAR experiment at smaller transverse masses, in agreement with a scenario of a strong universal collective flow. The p-(Lambda) over bar and (p) over bar-Lambda correlation functions, which are measured for the first time, exhibit a large anticorrelation. Annihilation channels and/or a negative real part of the spin-averaged scattering length must be included in the final-state interactions calculation to reproduce the measured correlation function.

摘要:
We present first measurements of the pseudorapidity and azimuth (eta, phi) bin-size dependence of event-wise mean transverse-momentum < pt > fluctuations for Au-Au collisions at root sNN = 200 GeV. We invert that dependence to obtain p(t) autocorrelations on differences (eta(Delta), phi(Delta)) interpreted to represent velocity/temperature distributions on (eta, phi). The general form of the autocorrelations suggests that the basic correlation mechanism is parton fragmentation. The autocorrelations vary rapidly with collision centrality, which suggests that fragmentation is strongly modified by a dissipative medium in the more central Au-Au collisions relative to peripheral or p-p collisions.

摘要:
We present the directed flow (v(1)) measured in Au+Au collisions at root s(NN)=62.4 GeV in the midpseudorapidity region parallel to eta parallel to < 1.3 and in the forward pseudorapidity region 2.5 <parallel to eta parallel to < 4.0. The results are obtained using the three-particle cumulant method, the event plane method with mixed harmonics, and for the first time at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, the standard method with the event plane reconstructed from spectator neutrons. Results from all three methods are in good agreement. Over the pseudorapidity range studied, charged particle directed flow is in the direction opposite to that of fragmentation neutrons.

摘要:
The transverse momentum dependence of the anisotropic flow $v_2$ for $\pi$, $K$, nucleon, $\Lambda$, $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ is studied for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 200$ GeV within two independent string-hadron transport approaches (RQMD and UrQMD). Although both models reach only 60% of the absolute magnitude of the measured $v_2$, they both predict the particle type dependence of $v_2$, as observed by the RHIC experiments: $v_2$ exhibits a hadron-mass hierarchy (HMH) in the low $p_T$ region and a number-of-constituent-quark (NCQ) dependence in the intermediate $p_T$ region. The failure of the hadronic models to reproduce the absolute magnitude of the observed $v_2$ indicates that transport calculations of heavy ion collisions at RHIC must incorporate interactions among quarks and gluons in the early, hot and dense phase. The presence of an NCQ scaling in the string-hadron model results suggests that the particle-type dependencies observed in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate $p_T$ might be related to the hadronic cross sections in vacuum rather than to the hadronization process itself.
