1 STRANGENESS in QUARK MATTER Cracow, Poland September 2011 Low Mass Dimuon Production in Proton-Nucleus Collisions at 400 GeV/c with the NA60 Experiment Antonio Uras for the NA60 Collaboration INFN Cagliari & IPNL Lyon
2 Outline The NA60 experiment Electromagnetic form factors for the η and ω mesons Line shape of the ρ meson Transverse momentum spectra of light neutral mesons Particle ratios Nuclear dependence of the production cross sections 2/22
3 The NA60 Experiment at the CERN SPS NA60 data taking: (2002) 400 GeV/c (2003) 158 GeV/c (2004) 158, 400 GeV/c Present analysis: (2004) p-a 400 GeV/c p-be, p-cu, p-in, p-w, p-pb, p-u 3/22
4 Available Data Samples Description in terms of the expected sources: 2-body and Dalitz decays of the neutral mesons η, ρ, ω, η', φ + Open Charm Total data sample: 180'000 matched muon pairs without target ID (form factors, ρ line shape) 80'000 matched muon pairs with target ID (pt spectra, cross sections) 4/22 WITHOUT target ID 400 GeV/c Events per 20 MeV/c2 Events per 20 MeV/c2 Combinatorial background (< 10% of signal) estimated via an event mixing technique WITH target ID 400 GeV/c
5 Electromagnetic Transition Form Factors and ρ Line Shape

8 Disentangling the Form Factors New theoretical prediction for the ω form factor Terschlusen & Leupold, Phys. Lett. B691, 191 (2010) VMD still close to data for the eta meson! Theory still fails close to the kinematic cut-off! 2 = ± ± [GeV/c2] 2 8/22 2 = ± ± [GeV/c2] 2!
9 Transverse Momentum Spectra
10 Uncorrected Mass Spectra (200 MeV/c slices of pt) GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c GeV/c Mass spectra extracted target by target and projected in slices of pt Examples shown for the uranium target Small acceptance at low masses at low pt GeV/c 10/22
11 Acceptance Efficiency vs pt ω and φ mesons: good acceptance down to zero pt Target dependence: combination of (mass-dependent) geometrical acceptance and reconstruction efficiency effects Uranium Indium Lead w.r.t. full phase space 11/22 Uranium Indium Lead w.r.t. full phase space
12 Fit of the Corrected Spectra (ω Meson) ³ m 1 dn T / exp mt dmt T dn / dp2t High pt tails not properly described 12/22 µ p2t 1+ 2 p0 Target integrated fit: p02 = 0.76 ± 0.03 ± 0.05 [GeV/c]2 β = 3.31 ± 0.07 ± 0.13
13 Fit of the Corrected Spectra (φ Meson) ³ m 1 dn T / exp mt dmt T dn / dp2t High pt tails not properly described 13/22 µ p2t 1+ 2 p0 Target integrated fit: p02 = 1.27 ± 0.10 ± 0.07 [GeV/c]2 β = 3.81 ± 0.17 ± 0.07
14 Nuclear Dependence of pt No significant trend of pt as a function of A. NA60 result: pt ω < pt φ Agreement with HERA-B p-a measurements (φ meson) Disagreement with the NA27 p-p measurement stating pt ω > pt φ All targets pt ω = 0.61 ± 0.03 ± 0.03 GeV/c 14/22 All targets pt φ = 0.70 ± 0.04 ± 0.02 GeV/c
15 pt Spectrum of the η Meson Previous measurements well described by the power law We have almost no acceptance below 0.6 GeV/c: up to 15% uncertainty when extrapolating η yield in full pt 15/22
16 Particle Ratios & Nuclear Dependence of Cross Sections
17 Events per 20 MeV/c2 Uncorrected Mass Spectra (target by target) 17/22
18 Particle Ratios as a function of A ρ/ω is compatible with ρ/ω = 1 from p-p to p-u. No evidence of dependence on the mass number of the target nucleus φ/ω shows a rising trend as a function of A ( 20% from light to heavy nuclei) Evidence of strangeness enhancement. p-a values significantly higher than p-p η/ω has large systematic uncertainties, due to the extrapolation to full-p T Rising trend recognizable as a function of A ( 30% from light to heavy nuclei) 18/22
19 Production Cross Sections: Nuclear Dependence Several targets available accurate study of σ(a) σ(a) usually parametrized as a power-law function: ¾(A) = ¾0 A Both σ0 and α depend on the considered particle α 2/3 : black disk cross section (soft processes) α 1 : cross section scales with the number of nucleons (hard processes) Be nucleus might be too light to follow the power law trend because of the low A Normalization to both Beryllium and Copper targets 19/22
20 Fit with the Power-law Aα Good description in term of the power law for the ω and φ mesons Removing the Be target: softer dependence for the ω, harder for the φ Hint for different production mechanisms? Softer for the ω, harder for φ (different quark composition) α(ω) = ± ± α(ω) = ± ± α(φ) = ± ± α(φ) = ± ± ω φ Alpha decreases removing Be 20/22 Alpha increases removing Be
21 pt Dependence of the α Parameters Clear rising trend of α vs pt (Cronin Effect) η meson: agreement with previous measurement from CERES-TAPS ω meson: first measurement of α(pt) α φ meson: agreement with previous measurement from HERA-B η 21/22 ω φ
22 Conclusions New high-precision measurement of the η and ω e.m. transition form factors. The ω form factor close to the kinematic threshold is still not explained by theory Study of the ρ line shape: first measurement of the ρ temperature in proton-nucleus collisions Accurate description of the low mass dimuon spectrum in terms of the known sources: in-medium effects not necessary to explain the data. Studies ongoing in connection with possible ρ/ω interference effects pt spectra for the ω and φ mesons studied down to zero pt. Power law is needed to describe the high-pt tails Mean pt larger for the φ than for the ω. No evidence of nuclear dependence ρ/ω = 1 independent of A. Rising trend as a function of A for φ/ω and η/ω Production cross sections scale according to Aα: Dependence is stronger for the φ meson than for the ω For the η, ω and φ mesons: α parameter increases as a function of pt (Cronin effect) 22/22

27 Combinatorial Background Estimated with a mixed-event technique. Normalized to the Like-Sign component REAL MIXED 27/22
28 Combinatorial Background Combinatorial background accounts for less than 10% of the low-mass spectrum Normalization: uncertainty on the charge-correlation factor at low multiplicities it is more likely to produce opposite sign than like-sign muon pairs 28/22
29 MC Simulations Mass line shapes are mass are generated: Narrow resonances: Gounaris-Sakurai parametrization (similar to a BreitWigner) with mass poles and widths from literature (PDG) Broad resonances (rho): Gounaris-Sakurai broadened by additional phase space factors accounting for the large width Dalitz decays: QED line shapes multiplied by the corresponding form factors Rapidity parametrization: Gaussian-like dn 1 / dy cosh2 (a(y y0 )) Width parameter a is function of the particle mass. It is fixed for the pion mass and decreased for heavier masses proportionally p cm to the maximum rapidity ymax = log( s=mpart ) 29/22 η ρ ω η' φ
30 Form Factors: Isolating the Processes of Interest Eta Dalitz and Omega Dalitz processes are isolated, together with the 2-body decay of ρ 30/22
31 Form Factors: Evaluate Acceptance Correction The correction is evaluated: for each process, separately for the sum of the three processes, according to the normalization extracted from the fit The correction for Rho dominates for mass > 0.6 GeV/c2 The correction for Eta dominates for mass < 0.5 GeV/c2 31/22

More informationAt this time the quark model consisted of three particles, the properties of which are given in the table.
*1 In 1961 Murray Gell-Mann predicted the existence of a new particle called an omega (Ω) minus. It was subsequently discovered in 1964. At this time the quark model consisted of three particles, the properties
