论文摘要
该星团的合作报告了横向单旋旋转不对称的测量,$ a_ {n} $,用于与质子($ pp $)的偏光质子碰撞中产生的中性亲,带有铝核($ p \ rm {al} $)和带有金nuclei($ p \ p \ rm rm {au} au nuc的nucen nuce的铝($ p \ rm {al} $),相对于横向极化质子束,在伪宽度区域$ 2.7 <η<3.8 $,在向前方向上观察到中性乳头。结果以$π^0 $ s的形式显示在窄Feynman X($ X_F $)和横向动量($ P_T $)垃圾箱中的Star FMS电磁量热仪中,涵盖了0.17 <x_f <x_f <0.81 $和$ 1.7 <p_ {t} <6.0 $ GEV/$ gev/$ c $。对于固定的$ x_f <0.47 $,发现不对称会随着横向动量的增加而上升。对于较大的$ x_f $,不对称或跌落为$ {p_t} $增加。参数比率$ r(a)\ equiv a_n(pa)/a_n(pp)= a^p $在运动范围内,比率$ r(a)$仅微弱地依赖于$ a $ a $ a $ a $ a $ a $ {\ langle} p {\ rangle} = -0.027 = -0.027 \ pm pm pm 0.005 \ pm pm pm pm 0.005 \ pm pm pm pm pm pm pm pm pm pm pm pm 0.005 \ pm pm pm 0.005 \ pm pm pm pm pm 0.005 \。低-$ p_t $区域,$ p_t <2.5 $ gev/$ c $之间没有观察到$ p $的显着差异,其中gluon饱和效果可能扮演角色,而高$ p_t $ region,$ p_t> 2.5 $ gev/$ gev/$ c $。进一步观察到,对于具有$ a_n $的$ a_n $的价值要大于$ p_t $隔离$π^0 $的事件,而对于未分离的$π^0 $伴随着附加类似喷射的片段的事件。对于隔离和非隔离$π^0 $事件而言,核依赖$ r(a)$相似。
The STAR Collaboration reports a measurement of the transverse single-spin asymmetries, $A_{N}$, for neutral pions produced in polarized proton collisions with protons ($pp$), with aluminum nuclei ($p\rm{Al}$) and with gold nuclei ($p\rm{Au}$) at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 200 GeV. Neutral pions are observed in the forward direction relative to the transversely polarized proton beam, in the pseudo-rapidity region $2.7<η<3.8$. Results are presented for $π^0$s observed in the STAR FMS electromagnetic calorimeter in narrow Feynman x ($x_F$) and transverse momentum ($p_T$) bins, spanning the range $0.17<x_F<0.81$ and $1.7<p_{T}<6.0$ GeV/$c$. For fixed $x_F<0.47$, the asymmetries are found to rise with increasing transverse momentum. For larger $x_F$, the asymmetry flattens or falls as ${p_T}$ increases. Parametrizing the ratio $r(A) \equiv A_N(pA)/A_N(pp)=A^P$ over the kinematic range, the ratio $r(A)$ is found to depend only weakly on $A$, with ${\langle}P{\rangle} = -0.027 \pm 0.005$. No significant difference in $P$ is observed between the low-$p_T$ region, $p_T<2.5$ GeV/$c$, where gluon saturation effects may play a role, and the high-$p_T$ region, $p_T>2.5$ GeV/$c$. It is further observed that the value of $A_N$ is significantly larger for events with a large-$p_T$ isolated $π^0$ than for events with a non-isolated $π^0$ accompanied by additional jet-like fragments. The nuclear dependence $r(A)$ is similar for isolated and non-isolated $π^0$ events.
