Three-Particle Coincidence of the Long Range Pseudorapidity Correlation in High Energy Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions
Аннотация
We report the first three-particle coincidence measurement in pseudorapidity ($\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\eta}$) between a high transverse momentum (${p}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$) trigger particle and two lower ${p}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$ associated particles within azimuth $|\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\phi}|<0.7$ in $\sqrt{{s}_{\mathrm{NN}}}=200\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ $d+\mathrm{Au}$ and $\mathrm{Au}+\mathrm{Au}$ collisions. Charge ordering properties are exploited to separate the jetlike component and the ridge (long range $\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\eta}$ correlation). The results indicate that the correlation of ridge particles are uniform not only with respect to the trigger particle but also between themselves event by event in our measured $\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\eta}$. In addition, the production of the ridge appears to be uncorrelated to the presence of the narrow jetlike component.
