被引用回数:15 パーセンタイル:64.26(Astronomy & Astrophysics)PHENIX reports differential cross sections of pairs from semileptonic heavy-flavor decays and the Drell-Yan production mechanism measured in collisions at GeV at forward and backward rapidity (). The pairs from , , and Drell-Yan are separated using a simultaneous fit to unlike- and like-sign muon pair spectra in mass and . The azimuthal opening angle correlation between the muons from and decays and the pair- distributions are compared to distributions generated using and models, which both include next-to-leading order processes. The measured distributions for pairs from are consistent with calculations. The data presents narrower azimuthal correlations and softer distributions compared to distributions generated from . The data are well described by both models. The extrapolated total cross section for bottom production is [b], which is consistent with previous measurements at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider in the same system at the same collision energy, and is approximately a factor of two higher than the central value calculated with theoretical models. The measured Drell-Yan cross section is in good agreement with next-to-leading-order quantum-chromodynamics calculations.

被引用回数:14 パーセンタイル:80.34(Physics, Nuclear)The reduced transition probability B(E2; 0) to the first excited 2 state of the neutron-rich nucleus Te, with two protons and two neutrons outside the doubly magic Sn core, was measured via Coulomb excitation at relativistic energies at the RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory. In the experiment, Te isotopes impinged on a 950 mg/cm Au target. The measured B(E2) value, 0.191(26) eb, is in good agreement with the result of a recent experiment employing low-energy Coulomb excitation. Because of the high statistics gathered in this work the error of the deduced B(E2) value is dominated by the systematic uncertainties involved in the analysis of Coulomb excitation experiments at beam energies around 150 MeV/u. These uncertainties were assessed for the first time and will be of use for future experiments at RIBF.

被引用回数:12 パーセンタイル:76.08(Astronomy & Astrophysics)cross sections were measured at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN up to neutron energies of 300 keV, providing for the first time experimental data above 8 keV. Results indicate that the stellar cross section at =30 keV is 1.5 to 1.7 times higher than most theoretical predictions. The new cross sections result in a substantial decrease of Ge produced in stars, which would explain the low isotopic abundance of Ge in the solar system.

被引用回数:2 パーセンタイル:12.69(Astronomy & Astrophysics)Dihadron and isolated direct photon-hadron angular correlations are measured in collisions at GeV. The correlations are sensitive to nonperturbative initial-state and final-state transverse momentum and in the azimuthal nearly back-to-back region . In this region, transverse-momentum-dependent evolution can be studied when several different hard scales are measured. To have sensitivity to small transverse momentum scales, nonperturbative momentum widths of , the out-of-plane transverse momentum component perpendicular to the trigger particle, are measured. These widths are used to investigate possible effects from transverse-momentum-dependent factorization breaking. When accounting for the longitudinal momentum fraction of the away-side hadron with respect to the near-side trigger particle, the widths are found to increase with the hard scale; this is qualitatively similar to the observed behavior in Drell-Yan and semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering interactions. The momentum widths are also studied as a function of center-of-mass energy by comparing to previous measurements at GeV. The nonperturbative jet widths also appear to increase with at a similar , which is qualitatively consistent to similar measurements in Drell-Yan interactions.

被引用回数:12 パーセンタイル:53.30(Astronomy & Astrophysics)We report the transverse single-spin asymmetries of production at forward and backward rapidity, , as a function of transverse momentum () and Feynman- (). The data analyzed were recorded by the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider in 2015 from , Al, and Au collisions with transversely polarized proton beams at GeV. At this collision energy, single-spin asymmetries for heavy-flavor particle production of collisions provide access to the spin-dependent gluon distribution and higher-twist correlation functions inside the nucleon, such as the gluon Qiu-Sterman and trigluon correlation functions. Proton + nucleus collisions offer an excellent opportunity to study nuclear effects on the correlation functions. The data indicate negative asymmetries at the two-standard-deviation level in the Au data for GeV/ at both forward and backward rapidity, while in and Al collisions the asymmetries are consistent with zero within the range of experimental uncertainties.

The data analyzed were taken during GeV longitudinally polarized collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider in the 2013 run using the PHENIX detector. At this collision energy, particles are predominantly produced through gluon-gluon scatterings, thus is sensitive to the gluon polarization inside the proton. We measured by detecting the decay daughter muon pairs within the PHENIX muon spectrometers in the rapidity range . In this kinematic range, we measured the to be . The can be expressed to be proportional to the product of the gluon polarization distributions at two distinct ranges of Bjorken : one at moderate range where recent data of jet and double helicity spin asymmetries have shown evidence for significant gluon polarization, and the other one covering the poorly known small-x region Thus our new results could be used to further constrain the gluon polarization for .

ミュオン及び中性子反応に関する日米協力研究JASMINでは、一連の実験的研究を、米国国立フェルミ加速器研究所における120GeV陽子ビームを用いて行った。このビームにより生じた二次粒子を、ターゲット周囲において、さまざまな検出器、ドジメーターを用いて測定した。また、鉄,コンクリート,岩石等を透過する二次粒子についても同様に測定した。また、これら核破砕反応に関する放射化断面積及び残留核の質量分布等の核データについては放射化法により測定した。二重微分中性子生成量についても、飛行時間法を用いて測定した。これらについてPHITSやMARS等の計算結果と比較したところ、全体的に一致することが示された。現在、さらに詳細な解析を進めている。
