Study of ordered hadron chains at 7 TeV
Experiment: ATLAS (LHC)
Inspire ID: 1624693
Status: VALIDATED
Authors: - Sharka Todorova-Nova - Christian Gutschow
References: - Expt page: ATLAS-STDM-2014-08 - Phys.Rev. D96 (2017) no.9, 092008 - DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.96.092008 - arXiv: 1709.07384
Beams: p+ p+
Beam energies: (3500.0, 3500.0)GeV
Run details: - minimum bias, charged tracks with pT>100 MeV, |eta|<2.5
The analysis of the momentum difference between charged hadrons in high-energy proton-proton collisions is performed in order to study coherent particle production. The observed correlation pattern agrees with a model of a helical QCD string fragmenting into a chain of ground-state hadrons. A threshold momentum difference in the production of adjacent pairs of charged hadrons is observed, in agreement with model predictions. The presence of low-mass hadron chains also explains the emergence of charge-combination-dependent two-particle correlations commonly attributed to Bose-Einstein interference. The data sample consists of 190 μb−1 of minimum-bias events collected with proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV in the early low-luminosity data taking with the ATLAS detector at the LHC.
