34. Inverting the mass hierarchy of jet quenching effects with prompt b-jet substructure

Mr Haitao Li (LANL)

5/23/18, 10:30 AM

The mass of heavy quarks, such as charm and bottom, plays an important role in the formation of parton showers. This effect is apparently not well understood when parton showers evolve in a strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma. We propose a new experimental measurement in relativistic heavy ion collisions, based on a two-prong subjet structure inside a reconstructed heavy flavor jet, ...

35. Quarkonium production at low transverse momentum with NRQCD+SCET

Yiannis Makris (LANL)

5/23/18, 11:00 AM

We consider the transverse momentum spectrum of quarkonium produced in hadronic collisions. For traverse momentum parametrically smaller compared to its mass, in the central rapidity region, the quarkonium is produced nearly at rest and other particles in the event can only be soft and/or collinear along the beam direction. We use non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) to describe the dynamics of the...
