The PHENIX experiment has measured, J/ψ, ψ′ and γ productions for different collision systems in the forward rapidities 1.2 < | η | < 2.2 at ?{SNN }\sqrt {S_{NN} } = 200 GeV. We have observed significant suppressions of J/ψ production in both Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions relative to the yield in p+p system. The measurements of higher mass heavy
quarkonia states (ψ′ and γ) will help us to constrain various quarkonium suppression models in heavy ion collisions. A first hint of ψ′ and γ productions in 200GeV p+p collisions has been observed at forward and backward rapidities at PHENIX. 相似文献

The inclusive K
--meson production in proton-nucleus collisions in the subthreshold energy regime is analyzed in the framework of an appropriate
folding model for incoherent primary proton-nucleon and secondary pion-nucleon production processes, which takes properly
into account the struck target nucleon momentum and removal energy distribution (nucleon spectral function), novel elementary
cross-sections for proton-nucleon reaction channel close to threshold as well as nuclear mean-field potential effects on the
one-step and two-step antikaon creation processes. A detailed comparison of the model calculations of the K
- differential cross-sections for the reactions p + 9Be and p + 63Cu at subthreshold energies with the first experimental data obtained at the ITEP proton synchrotron is given, that displays
both the relative role of the primary and secondary production channels at considered incident energies and the contributions
to the K
- production coming from the use of the single-particle part as well as high-momentum-energy part of the nucleon spectral function.
It is found that the pion-nucleon production channel does not dominate in the subthreshold “hard” antikaon production in p
9Be-, p
63Cu-collisions and the main contributions to the antikaon yields here come from the direct K
- production mechanism. The influence of the nucleon, kaon and antikaon mean-field potentials on the K
- yield is explored. It is shown that the effect of the nucleon mean-field is of importance in explaining the considered experimental
data on “hard” antikaon production, whereas the K
+ and K
- optical potentials play a minor role. The sensitivity of the subthreshold “soft” antikaon production in p
9Be-, p
12C-reactions to the nucleon, kaon and antikaon mean fields is studied. It is demonstrated that, contrary to the case of “hard”
antikaon production, the K
- potential has a very strong effect on the K
- yield, which is greater than that from nucleon effective potential.

The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is being upgraded with a novel four-layer silicon vertex
tracker. The detector will enhance the physics capabilities of PHENIX in the future phase of the heavy-ion and the polarized
proton-proton programs at RHIC. The silicon vertex tracker will allow the direct measurement of heavy quark production by
identifying displaced decay vertices, and will reconstruct jets with nearly full azimuthal coverage over |η| < 1.2. We are
developing a novel Silicon Pixel Detector for the inner two barrel layers of the silicon vertex tracker. In this paper, the
status of the development is reported.

The PHENIX detector at RHIC has been designed to study hadronic and leptonic signatures of the Quark Gluon Plasma in heavy
ion collisions and spin dependent structure functions in polarized proton collisions. The baseline detector measures muons
in two muon spectrometers located forward and backward of mid-rapidity, and measures hadrons, electrons, and photons in two
central spectrometer arms, each of which covers 90. in azimuth and 0.35 units of rapidity. Further progress requires extending
rapidity coverage for hadronic and electromagnetic signatures by upgrading the functionality of the PHENIX muon spectrometers
to include photon and jet measurement capabilities. Tungsten calorimeters with silicon pixel readout and fine transverse and
longitudinal segmentation are proposed to attain this goal. The use of such a design provides the highest density and finest
granularity possible in a calorimeter.

The correlations of the linear and circular polarizations in the system of two photons have been theoretically investigated.
The polarization of a two-photon state is described by the one-photon Stokes parameters and by the components of the correlation
“tensor” in the Stokes space. It is shown that in the case of two-photon decays π0 → 2γ, η → 2γ, K

S
0 → 2γ and the cascade process |0〉 → |1〉 + γ → |0〉 + 2γ(|0〉 and |1〉 are states with the spin 0 and 1, respectively) the final
two-photon state represents a characteristic example of the entangled (nonfactorizable) state, and the correlations between
the Stokes parameters in all these decays have the purely quantum character: the incoherence inequalities of the Bell type
for the components of the correlation “tensor”, established previously for the case of classical “mixtures”, are violated.
The general analysis of the registration procedure for two correlated photons by two one-photon detectors is performed. 相似文献

The ATLAS detector at the LHC is capable of efficiently separating photons and neutral hadrons based on their shower shapes
over a wide range in η, ϕ and E
T
, either in addition to or instead of isolation cuts. This provides ATLAS with a unique strength for direct photon and γ-jet physics (“tomography”) as well as access to the unique capability to measure non-isolated photons from fragmentation
or from the medium. We present a first look at the ATLAS direct photon measurement capabilities in p+p and Pb+Pb collisions
at LHC energies over the region |η| < 2.4. 相似文献

The inclusive K+ meson production in photon–induced reactions in the near threshold and subthreshold energy regimes is analyzed with respect
to the one–step (γN→K
+
Y, Y=Λ,Σ) incoherent production processes on the basis of an appropriate new folding model, which takes properly into account
the struck target nucleon removal energy and internal momentum distribution (nucleon spectral function), extracted from recent
quasielastic electron scattering experiments and from many–body calculations with realistic models of the NN interaction.
Simple parametrizations for the total and differential cross sections of the K+ production in photon–nucleon collisions are presented. Comparison of the model calculations of the K+ differential cross sections for the reaction γ+C12 in the threshold region with the existing experimental data is given, that displays the contributions to the K+ production at considered incident energies coming from the use of the single–particle part as well as high momentum and high
removal energy part of the nucleon spectral function. Detailed predictions for the K+ total and differential cross sections from γH2, γC12 and γPb208 reactions at subthreshold and near threshold energies are provided. The influence of the uncertainties in the elementary
K+ production cross sections on the K+ yield is explored.

The PHENIX forward upgrade adds nosecone calorimeters and level-1 trigger (LVL-1) detectors to the muon forward spectrometers.
The muon detector will trigger on high pT muons from W decay and reject background. This will enable study of quark and anti-quark polarizations in the proton. The
upgrade will add momentum and timing information to the present muon trigger. Signals from 3 Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs)
will provide momentum and timing information for the LVL-1 trigger. Each RPC carries a plane with coarse structure to establish
a space point for timing and one with radial cathode strips for azimuthal resolution. Timing resolution of ≈ 2 ns rejects
beam-related backgrounds and tracking from RPCs minimizes muons from hadron decays. RPC information is sent by optical. bers
to LVL-1 trigger processors. A discussion of physics measurements possible, layout of the upgrade and details of RPC design
and tests are given below.

The most recent determinations of the gluon polarization in the nucleon,
, obtained at RHIC and COMPASS experiments, are reviewed. The former accesses the gluon polarization mainly through the production
of neutral pions (PHENIX) or jets (STAR) in polarized proton collisions. The latter uses the photon-gluon fusion in polarized
lepton-nucleon scattering, tagged either by open charm or high-pT hadrons production. All the results are in good agreement, and favour values of ΔG roughly between 0 and 0.5 at a few (GeV/c)2 , thus in contradiction with what could be derived from the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule and the axial anomaly. Much stronger constraints
will be obtained in a near future by both programs, helping us to clarify the role of gluons in the nucleon spin. 相似文献

The ω resonance production and its π0γ decay in pA reactions close to threshold is considered within the Intranuclear Cascade (INC) model. The π0γ invariant-mass distribution shows two components which correspond to the ω decay “inside” and “outside” the nucleus, respectively.
The “inside” component is distorted by medium effects, which introduce a mass shift as well as collisional broadening for
the ω-meson and its decaying pion. The relative contribution of the “inside” component is analyzed in detail for different
kinematical conditions and nuclear targets. It is demonstrated that a measurement of the correlation in azimuthal angle between
the π0 and γ momenta allows to separate events related to the “inside”ω decay from different sources of background when uncorrelated
π0's and γ's are produced.

The coherent inelastic processes of the type a → b, which may take place in the interaction of hadrons and γ quanta with nuclei at very high energies (the nucleus remains the same), are theoretically investigated. For taking into
account the influence of the nucleus matter, the optical model, based on the conception of the refraction index, is used.
Analytical formulas for the effective cross section σ
coh (a → b) are obtained, taking into account that, at ultrarelativistic energies, the main contribution into σ
coh (a → b) is provided by very small transferred momenta in the vicinity of the minimal longitudinal momentum transferred to the nucleus.
It is shown that the cross section σ
coh (a → b) may be expressed through the “forward” amplitudes of inelastic scattering f
a+N+b+N (0) and elastic scattering f
a+N+a+N(0), f
b+N+b+N(0) on a separate nucleon, and it depends on the ratios L
a
/R and L
b
/R (L

and L

are the mean lengths of the free path in the nucleus matter for the particles a and b, respectively, and R is the nucleus radius). In particular, when L

/R ≫ 1, but L
b
/R ≪ 1 (or L
a
/R ≪ 1, but L
b
/R ≫ 1), σ
coh (a → b) is equal to the ratio of the “forward” cross sections of inelastic scattering a + N → b + N and elastic scattering of the particle b (or a) on a nucleon, multiplied by the cross section of scattering on the “black” nucleus πR

a
/R ≫ 1 and L
b
/R ≫ 1 are satisfied, σ
coh (a → b) is proportional to the factor R

Experimental research on positive-pion photoproduction on the oxygen nucleus in the 16O(γ, π+p) reaction at high recoil momenta of the residual nuclear system was performed. The yield for the 16O(γ, π+p) reaction was analyzed using a model that takes Δ-isobar configurations in nuclei ground states into account, together with
the earlier-measured yield of the12C(γ, π+p) reaction. The estimated number of isobars per nucleon N
Δ = 0.012 ± 0.005 was obtained for the 12C nucleus, and 16O N
Δ = 0.018 ± 0.004 was obtained for the 16O nucleus. 相似文献

Understanding the J/ψ suppression and possible recombination mechanisms at RHIC is one of the outstanding challenges for theorists and experimentalists.
Recent results provided by PHENIX showed a stronger suppression at forward rapidity, while at mid-rapidity the suppression
is similar to lower energy collision experiments. A large sample of Au + Au collisions at $

The reaction γd↦π+nn is calculated up to order χ5/2 in chiral perturbation theory, where χ denotes the ratio of the pion to the nucleon mass. Special emphasis is put on the
role of nucleon recoil corrections that are the source of contributions with fractional power in χ. Using the known near-threshold
production amplitude for γp↦π+n as the only input, the total cross-section for γd↦π+nn is described very well. A conservative estimate suggests that the theoretical uncertainty for the transition operator amounts
to 3% for the computed amplitude near threshold. 相似文献

The structure of stationary isotropic, homogeneous turbulence in an incompressible fluid with Re ≫ 1 set into motion by a
force with amplitude f
0 and spatial and temporal time scales of r
0 and τ

fundamentally different turbulent stationary states of the fluid can develop and the dimensionless parameters responsible

0, i.e., during the transition to a regime with γ≪1 and Γ ≫ 1, a segment of the spectrum with E(k)∝1/k

f
0 of the force, i.e., approaching the parameter range with γ≫1 and Γ≫1, causes the entire inertial range to be “occupied” by a spectrum E(k)∝1/k
2, and outside the inertial range, large scale structures with a characteristic size extending to γ
2/5
r
0 begin to be generated. In the regime with Γ≪1, the power dissipated per unit mass of fluid is independent of the viscosity,
but on going to turbulent regimes with Γ≫1, the viscous losses begin to depend on the viscosity of the fluid. The “turn-off”
of viscous dissipation for Γ≫1 shows that a drag crisis can occur simply as the source power is increased, without any further
conditions. With this method for the excitation of turbulence, the Loitsyanskii integral diverges for arbitrary values of
γ and Γ. A physical mechanism is proposed to explain the readjustment of the spectrum of the turbulent fluctuations at different
γ and Γ. These results have all been obtained neglecting intermittency.

The conversion electron spectrum of the 22.5keV M1 + E2 nuclear transition in 149Sm from the electron capture decay of 149Eu was experimentally studied for the “Eu2O3” and “EuF3” compounds in which 149Eu ions have the same assumed oxidation number +3 . While the energies of the L, M, N, O, and P1 conversion lines for “EuF3” were lower, on average, by 1.7(1), 2.7(2), 2.3(3), 4.1(2), and 5.7(9)eV, respectively, than those for “Eu2O3”, no changes between the two ligand complexes were observed for relative intensities of the conversion lines and their natural

The structure of the nucleon charge-exchange process n + p → p + n is investigated basing on the isotopic invariance of the nucleon-nucleon scattering. Using the operator of permutation of
the spin projections of the neutron and proton, the connection between the spin matrices, describing the amplitude of the
nucleon charge-exchange process at zero angle and the amplitude of the elastic scattering of the neutron on the proton in
the “backward” direction, has been considered. Due to the optical theorem, the spin-independent part of the differential cross
section of the process n + p → p + n at zero angle for unpolarized particles is expressed through the difference of total cross sections of unpolarized proton-proton
and neutron-proton scattering. Meantime, the spin-dependent part of this cross section is proportional to the differential
cross section of the deuteron charge-exchange breakup d + p → (pp) + n at zero angle at the deuteron momentum k

(k

> 700 MeV/c the main contribution into the differential cross section of the process n + p → p + n at zero angle is provided namely by the spin-dependent term. 相似文献

PHENIX measures leptons at mid and forward rapidities and extracts leptons resulting from semi-leptonic decays of heavy quarks. We present PHENIX results related to heavy quark production, specifically the invariant cross section of the non-photonic single electrons produced at midrapidity in p+p and d+Au collisions at $\sqrt {s_{NN} } = 200$ GeV. The measured cross section for p+p collisions is compared with the NLO prediction, and a possible excess over the prediction is noted. The measured cross section for d+Au collisions scales with the number of colliding nucleon pairs from the p+p spectra. 相似文献
