被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We conducted a measurement of the inclusive missing-mass spectrum in the C
reaction at an incident beam momentum of 1.8 GeV/
. This measurement was carried out utilizing the Superconducting Kaon Spectrometer (SKS) and the K1.8 beamline spectrometer at the Hadron Experimental Hall in J-PARC. Remarkably, our experimental setup yielded an exceptionaly good energy resolution of 8.2 MeV (FWHM), enabling us to observe significant enhancements in the vicinity of the
Be threshold region. In order to estimate the spectrum information, we employed several fitting parameters assumptions. The best agreement with the spectrum shape was obtained with combining quasi-free (QF) component and two-Gaussian functions, with the experimental resolution
being held constant. The peak positions were obtained to be

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:18.70(Instruments & Instrumentation)We have constructed a conduction-cooled superconducting dipole magnet for the Hyperon spectrometer at Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). The magnet is a Helmholtz-type dipole magnet with two circular coils with a radius of 500 mm separated by 500 mm. It provides a uniform magnetic field of 1.0 T or higher in a volume of mm
600 mm, covering the drift region of a time projection chamber (TPC). Owing to the target location inside the TPC, the Hyperon spectrometer has a broad angular coverage with a nearly
solid angle. We have successfully excited the magnet up to 1.3 T. At 1.0 T, we operated it stably for more than 1 week in single-magnet configuration and double-magnet configuration with a normal-conducting 0.7-T dipole magnet located 30 cm apart. The measured magnetic field distribution in the TPC volume is consistent with the calculated field map.

A new hyperon-proton scattering experiment, dubbed J-PARC E40, was performed to measure differential cross sections of the ,
elastic scatterings and the
scattering by identifying a lot of
particles in the momentum ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 GeV/
produced by the
reactions. We successfully measured the differential cross sections of these three channels with a drastically improved accuracy with a fine angular step. These new data will become important experimental constraints to improve the theories of the two-body baryon-baryon interactions. Following this success, we proposed a new experiment to measure the differential cross sections and spin observables by using a highly polarized
beam for providing quantitative information on the
interaction. The results of three
channels and future prospects of the
scattering experiment are described.

By performing phase-shift analyses for the obtained differential cross sections, we experimentally derived the phase shifts of the

被引用回数:6 パーセンタイル:68.58(Physics, Nuclear)Small nuclear collisions are mainly sensitive to cold-nuclear-matter effects; however, the collective behavior observed in these collisions shows a hint of hot-nuclear-matter effects. The identified-particle spectra, especially the mesons which contain strange and antistrange quarks and have a relatively small hadronic-interaction cross section, are a good tool to study these effects. The PHENIX experiment has measured
mesons in a specific set of small collision systems
Al,
Au, and
He
Au, as well as
Au, at
GeV. The transverse-momentum spectra and nuclear-modification factors are presented and compared to theoretical-model predictions. The comparisons with different calculations suggest that quark-gluon plasma may be formed in these small collision systems at
GeV. However, the volume and the lifetime of the produced medium may be insufficient for observing strangeness-enhancement and jet-quenching effects. Comparison with calculations suggests that the main production mechanisms of
mesons at midrapidity may be different in
Al versus
He
Au collisions at
GeV. While thermal quark recombination seems to dominate in
He
Au collisions, fragmentation seems to be the main production mechanism in
Al collisions.

被引用回数:15 パーセンタイル:90.60(Physics, Nuclear)Suppression of the nuclear-modification factor has been seen as a trademark signature of final-state effects in large collision systems for decades.

/Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. In particular, the analysis of data at RHIC for different geometries obtained by varying the projectile size and shape has proven insightful. In the present analysis, we find excellent agreement with the previously published PHENIX at RHIC results on elliptical and triangular flow with an independent analysis via the two-particle correlation method, which has quite different systematic uncertainties and an independent code base. In addition, the results are extended to other detector combinations with different kinematic (pseudorapidity) coverage. These results provide additional constraints on contributions from nonflow and longitudinal decorrelations.

GeV with the proton beam(s) transversely polarized. At very forward rapidities

The resulting single spin asymmetries, that were previously reported, have now been extracted as a function of the transverse momentum of the neutron as well as its longitudinal momentum fraction

The explicit kinematic dependence, combined with the correlation information allows for a closer look at the interplay of different mechanisms suggested to describe these asymmetries, such as hadronic interactions or electromagnetic interactions in ultra-peripheral collisions, UPC. Events that are correlated with a hard collision indeed display a mostly negative asymmetry that increases in magnitude as a function of transverse momentum with only little dependence on

In contrast, events that are not likely to have emerged from a hard collision display positive asymmetries for the nuclear collisions with a kinematic dependence that resembles that of a UPC based model. Because the UPC interaction depends strongly on the charge of the nucleus, those effects are very small for
collisions, moderate for
Al collisions, and large for
Au collisions.

被引用回数:9 パーセンタイル:62.51(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Studying spin-momentum correlations in hadronic collisions offers a glimpse into a three-dimensional picture of proton structure. The transverse single-spin asymmetry for midrapidity isolated direct photons in collisions at
=200 GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Because direct photons in particular are produced from the hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force, this measurement is a clean probe of initial-state spin-momentum correlations inside the proton and is in particular sensitive to gluon interference effects within the proton. This is the first time direct photons have been used as a probe of spin-momentum correlations at RHIC. The uncertainties on the results are a fifty-fold improvement with respect to those of the one prior measurement for the same observable, from the Fermilab E704 experiment. These results constrain gluon spin-momentum correlations in transversely polarized protons.

elastic scatterings and
inelastic scattering. The experimental data gives a strong constraint on the theoretical models of the
interaction. The identification of
scattering event with a high statistics is important by overcoming the difficulties in the hyperon proton scattering experiment. We have introduced a new identification method of the
scattering event, which does not need to detect
particles directly. We used a new detector system called CATCH and two spectrometer systems installed at the upstream and the downstream of a liquid hydrogen target. A high intensity
beam of 20 M/spill was used to produce
particle. The momenta of
beam and scattered
were measured by the spectrometers to reconstruct the momentum of a
beam produced via the
reactions. The scattering angle and the kinetic energy of recoil protons from the
scattering were measured by CATCH for the identification of the
scattering events by checking the kinematic consistency. A part of the experiment was performed in 2018 and 2019 in J-PARC. As a result of analyzing the collected data, the
production and the
scattering reaction have been identified. It means that our new measurement and analysis method are successfully working well. Analysis for deriving the differential cross section of the
scattering is on going.

In this measurement the explicit transverse-momentum dependence of inclusive neutron single spin asymmetries for proton-proton collisions is extracted using a bootstrapping-unfolding technique on the transverse momenta. This explicit transverse-momentum dependence will help improve the understanding of the mechanisms that create these asymmetries.
