被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.02(Physics, Nuclear)Detailed spectroscopy of neutron-rich, heavy, deformed nuclei is of broad interest for nuclear astrophysics and nuclear structure. Nuclei in the -process path and following freeze-out region impact the resulting -process abundance distribution, and the structure of nuclei midshell in both proton and neutron number helps to understand the evolution of subshell gaps and large deformation in these nuclei.

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.01(Astronomy & Astrophysics)The cross section of bottom quark-antiquark () production in collisions at GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The results are based on the yield of high mass, like-sign muon pairs measured within the PHENIX muon arm acceptance (). The signal is extracted from like-sign dimuons by utilizing the unique properties of neutral meson oscillation. We report a differential cross section of nb for like-sign muons in the rapidity and ranges and GeV/, and dimuon mass of 5 - 10 GeV/. The extrapolated total cross section at this energy for production is b. The total cross section is compared to a perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculation and is consistent within uncertainties. The azimuthal opening angle between muon pairs from decays and their distributions are compared to distributions generated using , which includes next-to-leading order processes. The azimuthal correlations and pair distribution are not very well described by calculations, but are still consistent within uncertainties. Flavor creation and flavor excitation subprocesses are favored over gluon splitting.

被引用回数:2 パーセンタイル:15.55(Astronomy & Astrophysics)The PHENIX experiment has measured the spin alignment for inclusive decays in collisions at GeV at midrapidity. The angular distributions have been measured in three different polarization frames, and the three decay angular coefficients have been extracted in a full two-dimensional analysis. Previously, PHENIX saw large longitudinal net polarization at forward rapidity at the same collision energy. This analysis at midrapidity, complementary to the previous PHENIX results, sees no sizable polarization in the measured transverse momentum range of GeV/. The results are consistent with a previous one-dimensional analysis at midrapidity at GeV. The transverse-momentum-dependent cross section for midrapidity production has additionally been measured, and after comparison to world data we find a simple logarithmic dependence of the cross section on .

被引用回数:14 パーセンタイル:75.64(Physics, Nuclear)We have measured direct photons for GeV/ in minimum bias and 0% - 40% most central events at midrapidity for CuCu collisions at GeV. The contribution from quasi-real direct virtual photons has been determined as an excess over the known hadronic contributions in the mass distribution. A clear enhancement of photons over the binary scaled fit is observed for GeV/ in CuCu data. The spectra are consistent with the AuAu data covering a similar number of participants. The inverse slopes of the exponential fits to the excess after subtraction of the baseline are 28553(stat)57(syst)~MeV/ and 33372(stat)45(syst)~MeV/ for minimum bias and 0% - 40% most central events, respectively. The rapidity density, , of photons demonstrates the same power law as a function of observed in AuAu at the same collision energy.

被引用回数:35 パーセンタイル:92.4(Physics, Nuclear)We present a detailed measurement of charged two-pion correlation functions in 0%-30% centrality GeV AuAu collisions by the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The data are well described by Bose-Einstein correlation functions stemming from Lvy-stable source distributions. Using a fine transverse momentum binning, we extract the correlation strength parameter , the Lvy index of stability and the Lvy length scale parameter as a function of average transverse mass of the pair . We find that the positively and the negatively charged pion pairs yield consistent results, and their correlation functions are represented, within uncertainties, by the same Lvy-stable source functions. The measurements indicate a decrease of the strength of the correlations at low . The Lvy length scale parameter decreases with increasing , following a hydrodynamically predicted type of scaling behavior. The values of the Lvy index of stability are found to be significantly lower than the Gaussian case of , but also significantly larger than the conjectured value that may characterize the critical point of a second-order quark-hadron phase transition.

被引用回数:25 パーセンタイル:73.27(Astronomy & Astrophysics)We present midrapidity measurements from the PHENIX experiment of large parity-violating single-spin asymmetries of high transverse momentum electrons and positrons from decays, produced in longitudinally polarized collisions at center of mass energies of = 500 and 510 GeV. These asymmetries allow direct access to the antiquark polarized parton distribution functions due to the parity-violating nature of the -boson coupling to quarks and antiquarks. The results presented are based on data collected in 2011, 2012, and 2013 with an integrated luminosity of 240 pb, which exceeds previous PHENIX published results by a factor of more than 27. These high data probe the parton structure of the proton at mass scale and provide an important addition to our understanding of the antiquark parton helicity distribution functions at an intermediate Bjorken value of roughly .

被引用回数:49 パーセンタイル:94.89(Physics, Nuclear)We present measurements of production at midrapidity in Au + Au collisions at = 200 GeV. The invariant yield is studied within the PHENIX detector acceptance over a wide range of mass ( GeV/) and pair transverse momentum ( GeV/) for minimum bias and for five centrality classes. The yield is compared to the expectations from known sources. In the low-mass region (0.30-0.76 GeV/) there is an enhancement that increases with centrality and is distributed over the entire pair range measured. It is significantly smaller than previously reported by the PHENIX experiment and amounts to or to for minimum bias collisions when the open heavy-flavor contribution is calculated with pythia or mc@nlo, respectively. The inclusive mass and distributions, as well as the centrality dependence, are well reproduced by model calculations where the enhancement mainly originates from the melting of the meson resonance as the system approaches chiral symmetry restoration. In the intermediate-mass region (1.2-2.8 GeV/), the data hint at a significant contribution in addition to the yield from the semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons.

被引用回数:117 パーセンタイル:97.73(Astronomy & Astrophysics)We report measurement of the cross section of between 4.0 and 5.5 GeV, based on an analysis of initial state radiation events in a 980 data sample recorded with the Belle detector. The properties of the and states are determined. Fitting the mass spectrum of with two coherent Breit-Wigner functions, we find two solutions with identical mass and width but different couplings to electron-positron pairs: , MeV, , MeV, and eV and eV for one solution; or eV and eV for the other. Here, the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. Evidence for a charged charmoniumlike structure at 4.05 is observed is observed in the intermediate state in the decays.
