Dileptons from P-nucleus collisions

Abstract: Abstract. Recent results from fixed-target dimuon production experiments at Fermilab are presented. Various QCD tests using dilepton production data are discussed. We emphasize that clear evidence for scaling violation in the Drell-Yan process remains to be established. Further theoretical and experimental work are needed to understand the polarization of the Drell-Yan pairs. We also discuss the nuclear medium effects for dilepton productions. In particular, we discuss the use of Drell-Yan data to deduce the e… Show more

“…The pairs produced in heavy ion collisions can have final-state interactions before bound quarkonia could be formed. We found [256] that with both initial-and final-state double scattering, the broadening of heavy quarkonia is close to 2C A /C F times the Drell-Yan broadening in proton-nucleus collision, which is consistent with existing data [257]. If all soft gluons of heavy ion beams are stopped to form the hot dense medium in nucleus-nucleus collisions, final-state interaction between the almost stationary medium and the fast moving heavy quarks (or quarkonia) of transverse momentum q T is unlikely to broaden the q T spectrum, instead, it is likely to slow down the heavy quarks (or quarkonia) [256].…”

“…Particle transverse momentum broadening is the type of observable most directly relevant to q for CNM [74,75]. Our previous global analysis [32] takes into account the current world data on the transverse momentum broadening of single hadron production in SIDIS [6] of eA collisions, of Drell-Yan di-lepton production in pA collisions [76,77], and of heavy quarkonium (J/ψ and Υ) production in pA collisions [7,8,[77][78][79][80]. These observables involve multiple scatterings undergone by quark or gluon jets in the initial or (and) final states of the hard processes, providing multi-dimensional insight into the transport coefficient as well as a place to examine the theoretical framework.…”

“…This is because rutile has a much lower closure temperature (~500°C) than zircon (~900°C) and the U-Pb system of RMJG rutile was reset by later thermal events. Mafic dyke swarms with an age range of 1730-1780 Ma occur in the study area (Peng et al 2008, Peng 2015, Li et al 2015b. Therefore, it is likely that these dyke swarms were emplaced into shallow crust and heated the rutiles.…”
