Abstract

We study the beam-energy and system-size dependence of phi meson production (using the hadronic decay mode phi -> K(+) K(-)) by comparing the new results from Cu + Cu collisions and previously reported Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 62.4 and 200 GeV measured in the STAR experiment at RHIC. Data presented in this Letter are from mid-rapidity (vertical bar y vertical bar ) and net strangeness = 2 (Xi). The enhancement for phi mesons is observed to be higher at root s(NN) = 200 GeV compared to 62.4 GeV. These observations for the produced phi(s (s) over bar) mesons clearly suggest that, at these collision energies, the source of enhancement of strange hadrons is related to the formation of a dense partonic medium in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions and cannot be alone due to canonical suppression of their production in smaller systems.

Abstract

We report the STAR measurement of ϕ meson production in Au + Au and p + p collisions at s N N = 200 GeV . Using the event mixing technique, the ϕ spectra and yields are obtained at mid-rapidity for five centrality bins in Au + Au collisions and for non-singly-diffractive p + p collisions. It is found that the ϕ transverse momentum distributions from Au + Au collisions are better fitted with a single-exponential while the p + p spectrum is better described by a double-exponential distribution. The measured nuclear modification factors indicate that ϕ production in central Au + Au collisions is suppressed relative to peripheral collisions when scaled by the number of binary collisions ( 〈 N bin 〉 ) . The systematics of 〈 p t 〉 versus centrality and the constant ϕ / K − ratio versus beam species, centrality, and collision energy rule out kaon coalescence as the dominant mechanism for ϕ production.

Abstract

Values of the ratios in the mid-rapidity yields of Λ / Λ =0.71±0.01( stat. )±0.04( sys. ) , Ξ + / Ξ − =0.83±0.04( stat. )±0.05( sys. ) , Ω + / Ω − =0.95±0.15( stat. )±0.05( sys. ) and K + /K − =1.092±0.023(combined) were obtained in central s NN =130 GeV Au+Au collisions using the STAR detector. The ratios indicate that a fraction of the net-baryon number from the initial system is present in the excess of hyperons over antihyperons at mid-rapidity. The trend in the progression of the baryon ratios, with increasing strange quark content, is similar to that observed in heavy-ion collisions at lower energies. The value of these ratios may be related to the charged kaon ratio in the framework of simple quark-counting and thermal models.

Abstract

Yields and phase space distributions of φ -mesons emitted from p+p (minimum bias trigger), p+Pb (at various centralities) and central Pb+Pb collisions are reported ( E beam =158 A GeV). The decay φ →K + K − was used for identification. The φ / π ratio is found to increase by a factor of 3.0±0.7 from inelastic p+p to central Pb+Pb. Significant enhancement in this ratio is also observed in subclasses of p+p events (characterized by high charged-particle multiplicity) as well as in the forward hemisphere of central p+Pb collisions. In Pb+Pb no shift or significant broadening of the φ -peak is seen.

Abstract

Experimental results on deuteron emission from central Pb+Pb collisions ( E beam =158A GeV, fixed target), obtained by NA49 at the CERN SPS accelerator, are presented. The transverse mass m t distribution was measured near mid-rapidity (2.0 y m t − m 0 c 2 (0 p t c ) for the 4% most central collisions. An exponential fit gives an inverse slope T d =(450±30) MeV and a yield dN d / dy =0.34±0.03. The coalescence factor B 2 ( m t = m 0 )=(3.5±1.0)·10 −4 GeV 2 and its m t -dependence are determined and discussed in terms of a model that includes the collective expansion of the source created in a collision. The derived Gaussian size parameter R G of the emission volume is consistent with earlier HBT results on the source of pion emission.

Abstract

We present a measurement of semi-inclusive spin asymmetries for positively and negatively charged hadrons from deep inelastic scattering of polarised muons on polarised protons and deuterons in the range $0.003$1 GeV$^2$. Compared to our previous publication on this subject, with the new data the statistical errors have been reduced by nearly a factor of two. From these asymmetries and our inclusive spin asymmetries we determine the polarised quark distributions of valence quarks and non-strange sea quarks at $Q^2$=10 GeV$^2$. The polarised $u$ valence quark distribution, $\Delta u_v(x)$, is positive and the polarisation increases with $x$. The polarised $d$ valence quark distribution, $\Delta d_v(x)$, is negative and the non-strange sea distribution, $\Delta \bar q(x)$, is consistent with zero over the measured range of $x$. We find for the first moments $\int_0^1 \Delta u_v(x) dx = 0.77 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.08$, $\int_0^1 \Delta d_v(x) dx = -0.52 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.09$ and $\int_0^1 \Delta \bar q(x) dx= 0.01 \pm 0.04 \pm 0.03$, where we assumed $\Delta \bar u(x) = \Delta \bar d(x)$. We also determine for the first time the second moments of the valence distributions $\int_0^1 x \Delta q_v(x) dx$., Comment: 17 pages

Abstract

We present a new measurement of the virtual photon proton asymmetry $A_1^{\rm p}$ from deep inelastic scattering of polarized muons on polarized protons in the kinematic range $0.0008 < x < 0.7$ and $0.2 < Q^{2} < 100$ GeV$^{2}$. With this, the statistical uncertainty of our measurement has improved by a factor of $2$ compared to our previous measurements. The spin-dependent structure function $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ is determined for the data with $Q^{2} > 1$ GeV$^{2}$. A perturbative QCD evolution in next-to-leading order is used to determine $g_1^{\rm p}(x)$ at a constant $Q^2$. At $Q^{2} = 10$ GeV$^{2}$ we find, in the measured range, $\int_{0.003}^{0.7} g_{1}^{\rm p}(x){\rm d}x = 0.139 \pm 0.006~({\rm stat})\pm 0.008~({\rm syst)} \pm 0.006~({\rm evol})$. The value of the first moment $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm p} = \int_{0}^{1} g_{1}^{\rm p}(x){\rm d}x$ of $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ depends on the approach used to describe the behaviour of $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ at low $x$. We find that the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule is violated. With our published result for $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm d}$ we confirm the Bjorken sum rule with an accuracy of $\approx 15\%$ at the one standard deviation level.

Abstract

We present a new measurement of the spin-dependent structure function $g_{1}^{\rm d}$ of the deuteron from deep inelastic scattering of 190 GeV polarized muons on polarized deuterons. The results are combined with our previous measurements of $g_{1}^{\rm d}$. A perturbative QCD evolution in next-to-leading order is used to compute $g_{1}^{\rm d}(x)$ at a constant $Q^{2}$. At $Q^{2} = 10$ GeV$^{2}$, we obtain a first moment $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm d} = \int_{0}^{1} g_{1}^{\rm d}{\rm d}x = 0.041 \pm 0.008$, a flavour-singlet axial charge of the nucleon $a_{0} = 0.30 \pm 0.08$, and an axial charge of the strange quark $a_{s} = -0.09 \pm 0.03$. Using our earlier determination of $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm p}$, we obtain $\Gamma_1^{\rm p} - \Gamma_1^{\rm n} = 0.183 \pm 0.035$ at $Q^2 = 10\,\mbox{GeV}^2$. This result is in agreement with the Bjorken sum rule which predicts $\Gamma_1^{\rm p} - \Gamma_1^{\rm n} = 0.186 \pm 0.002$ at the same $Q^2$.

Abstract

The angular dependece of the pp elastic scattering spin correlation parameter was measured in the angular range from 60° to 97° CM at 14 energies between 1.96 and 2.23 GeV. A rapid decrease of the energy dependence of this observable at 90° CM is observed around 2.11 GeV kinetic energy. This agrees with the behavior of Aoonn predicted on the basis of an exotic six-quark structure. The Aoonn (90° CM), together with the known differential cross section, allows the determination of the absolute value of the pure spin-singlet amplitude. The energy dependence of this amplitude shows a shoulder centered at 2.11 GeV, corresponding to a total mass of 2.735 GeV and an estimated width of 17 MeV.

Abstract

We report on the first measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1d of the deuteron in the deep inelastic scattering of polarised muons off polarised deuterons, in the kinematical range 0.006222. The first moment, Γ1d=sh{phonetic}01 g1d dx=0.023±0.020 (stat.) ± 0.015 (syst.), is smaller than the prediction of the Ellis-Jaffe sum rules. Using earlier measurements of g1p, we infer the first moment of the spin-dependent neutron structure function g1n. The difference Γ1p-Γ1n=0.20 ±0.05 (stat.) ± 0.04 (syst.) agrees with the prediction of the Bjorken sum rule, Γ1p-Γ1n=0.191 ±0.002.

Abstract

The mass of the η meson has been measured through the study of the d p→ 3 He η reaction near threshold, the beam having been calibrated through comparison with three other nuclear reactions. The value obtained is m η =547.30±0.15 MeV/ c 2 , where the error bar includes both systematic and statistical effects. This is much more precise and significantly lower than the Particle Data Group average, through it is consistent with a previous counter experiment.

From an experimental point of view, this 1 Present address: Formal Computers Inc., 925 Westwood Boulevard, Los Angeles, Calif 90024. 2 Present address: Department of Physics, University of Al- berta, Edmonton T6G2J 1, Canada. elastic scattering process is relatively easy to study since the ground state of 4He is separated from a mul- tibody continuum by at least 20 MeV. With regard to theoretical interpretation of the data, the nuclear structure of 4He is reasonably well known so that proton:He elastic scattering is a good test for theo- ries of nucleon-nucleus elastic scattering at interme- diate energies. The experimental data can be used to study various effects on the reaction mechanism such as two body correlations in the nuclear wave func- tion [1], effects due to the spin dependence of the nucleon-nucleon amplitudes [2], the effects of iso- bar intermediate states [3], non-eikonal effects in the reaction mechanism [4-6], and exchange effects at backward angles [7]. Most of the past experimen- tal data, which include both cross section [8] and polarization measurements [9], have been taken for 205

DWBA calculations are found to reproduce the main features of the (p,d) data, when proton potentials are used which give strong oscillations in the (p,p) analyzing powers as required by the elastic data. Damping of the nuclear interior contribution is unimportant at this energy.

The real part of the double-spin-flip amplitude extracted from these data completes our determination of the forward pp scattering amplitudes at these energies. Comparison with the predictions of forward dispersion relations reveals a discrepancy in the spin-dependent channels at 650 MeV.

We present first measurements of total cross section differences Δσ T and Δσ L for a polarized neutron beam transmitted through a polarized proton target. Measurements were carried out at SATURNE II, at 0.63, 0.88, 0.98 and 1.08 GeV. The results are compared with Δσ L data points deduced from p-d and p-p transmission experiments, and with phase shift analyses predictions. The present results together with the corresponding pp data yield two of the three spin dependent forward scattering amplitudes for isospin I =0.

Abstract

Angular distributions and the excitation function of the total cross section for the 208 Pb(p, n) charge exchange reaction are fitted with DWBA calculations. Isospin potentials which have the relative real volume and surface imaginary strengths found in the optical model studies of Becchetti and Greenlees provide adequate fits to the angular distributions. The excitation function indicates a strong energy dependence in the strength of the isospin potential.

Abstract

Differential cross sections for the 208 Pb (p, n) reaction populating the isobaric analog state (IAS) of the 208 Pb ground state in 208 Bi have been measured at a proton bombarding energy of 30.5 MeV. The experimental technique utilized the proton (p) decay of the IAS to obtain neutron time-of-flight spectra. When these differential cross sections are compared to those obtained for the same reaction at 30.5 MeV using the pulsed-beam technique to obtain neutron time-of-flight spectra, the percentage of the IAS decay through p channels is obtained. This comparison indicates that the p decay of the IAS to the first three states of 207 Pb accounts for almost all of the IAS width (0.97±0.28).

Excitation functions for the quasi-elastic (p, np) reaction are presented 91 Zr, 119 Sn, 208 Pb and 209 Bi from threshold to 45 MeV. Attempts to fit the data with conventional macroscopic DWBA calculations, using the Becchetti-Greenless (BG) optical model parameters, show that for all four nuclei considered an extremely unrealistic but consistent energy dependence is required for the strength of the complex symmetry potential.
