Correlations of azimuthal anisotropy Fourier harmonics with subevent cumulants in collisions at
Abstract
Event-by-event long-range correlations of azimuthal anisotropy Fourier coefficients () in 8.16\TeV data, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, are extracted using a subevent four-particle cumulant technique applied to very low multiplicity events. Each combination of four charged particles are selected from either two, three, or four distinct subevent regions of a pseudorapidity range from -2.4 to 2.4 of the CMS tracker, and with transverse momentum between 0.3 and 3.0\GeV. Using the subevent cumulant technique, correlations between of different orders are measured as functions of particle multiplicity and compared to the standard cumulant method without subevents over a wide event multiplicity range. At high multiplicities, the and coefficients exhibit an anticorrelation; this behavior is observed consistently using various methods. The and correlation strength is found to depend on the number of subevents used in the calculation. As the event multiplicity decreases, the results from different subevent methods diverge because of different contributions of non-collective or few-particle correlations. Correlations extracted with the four-subevent method exhibit a tendency to diminish monotonically toward the lowest multiplicity region (about 20 charged tracks) investigated. These findings extend previous studies to a significantly lower event multiplicity range and establish the evidence for the onset of long-range collective multiparticle correlations in small system collisions.
0.1 Introduction
In high-energy ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus (AA) collisions, a dense and hot state of matter called the quark gluon plasma (QGP) is produced [1, 2]. Studies of multiparticle correlations provide important insights into the underlying mechanism of particle production in this strongly coupled, non-perturbative regime. A key feature of such multiparticle correlations in AA collisions is a pronounced structure on the near side relative azimuthal angle () that extends over a large range in relative pseudorapidity ( up to 4 units or more). This feature, known as the “ridge”, has been found over a wide range of center-of-mass energies and system sizes in AA collisions at both the BNL RHIC [3, 4, 5, 6] and the CERN LHC [7, 8, 9, 10, 11]. It is interpreted as arising primarily from the initial anisotropic geometry and its fluctuations coupled with the collective hydrodynamic flow of a strongly interacting, expanding medium [12, 13]. The azimuthal correlations of emitted particle pairs are typically characterized by their Fourier components as:
[TABLE]
where are the two-particle Fourier coefficients. If factorization is assumed, denote the single-particle anisotropy harmonics [14]. In particular, the second, third, and fourth Fourier components are known as elliptic (), triangular (), and quadrangular () flow, respectively [13].
In order to constrain the effects of the geometry and its fluctuations in the initial conditions, and the transport properties of the produced medium in AA collisions, new studies were carried out looking at correlations between different orders of harmonics. In particular, event-by-event fluctuations of harmonic amplitudes in PbPb collisions at the LHC were studied using the event shape engineering technique [15], and the four-particle symmetric cumulant (SC) method [16, 17], where the SC method for two different harmonic orders and is defined as:
[TABLE]
Here, the double angular brackets indicate that the averaging procedure is done first on all distinct particle quadruplets in an event, and then over all the events, by weighting each single event average with its number of quadruplets. Over the full range of impact parameters in PbPb collisions, it was found that the harmonic exhibits a negative event-by-event correlation with the harmonic, while the correlation is positive between the and harmonics. These correlations are shown to be sensitive probes of initial-state fluctuations ( \vs) and medium transport coefficients ( \vs) [18, 19, 20, 21, 16].
In high-multiplicity and collisions, the “ridge” has been observed [22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28] and detailed studies have highlighted its collective nature [29, 30, 31, 32]. Event-by-event correlations among the , and Fourier harmonics have also been measured for both systems using the SC method [33]. The correlation data reveal features similar to those observed in PbPb collisions, where a negative correlation is found between the and harmonics, while the correlation is positive between the and harmonics. These observations may further support the hydrodynamic origin of collective correlations in high-multiplicity events for these small systems [16].
However, the nature of the long-range collectivity in small systems, especially for the low-multiplicity region (e.g., less than about 50–60 charged particles), still remains inconclusive and much debated (e.g., see reviews in Refs. [34, 35]). It has been argued that the contribution of initial momentum space collectivity from the gluon saturation model may become dominant as the event multiplicity decreases [36]. Understanding the multiplicity dependence of the observed long-range collectivity is the key to disentangle contributions from various physical origins. Experimental investigation of collective multiparticle correlations for low-multiplicity events is largely hindered by the presence of significant noncollective correlations (nonflow), such as few-particle correlations from jets. The observed trend for the – correlation () to become positive is likely related to the nonflow effect [33]. In order to suppress these few-particle correlations and to explore possible collective correlation signals, subevent cumulant techniques have been proposed to require rapidity gaps among particles [37, 38]. As detailed in Refs. [38, 39, 40], each combination of four particles is required to fall into two, three or four distinct subevents within the full range. There are already studies highlighting the importance of the nonflow contribution in cumulant calculations and the effectiveness of the subevent techniques to strongly suppress it [39, 40].
Using a large data sample collected using the CMS detector, this paper presents the first measurement of event-by-event correlations of \vs and \vs using the SC method with subevents in collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of mass energy covering a wide multiplicity range. The correlation measurements are performed using 2, 3, and 4 subevents, where the impact of few-particle correlations is systematically reduced in a data-driven way as the number of subevents increases. The results are also compared to previous measurements without the subevent technique.
0.2 The CMS detector
The central feature of the CMS apparatus is a superconducting solenoid of 6\unitm internal diameter, providing a magnetic field of 3.8\unitT. Within the solenoid volume, there are four primary subdetectors including a silicon pixel and strip tracker detector, a lead tungstate crystal electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), and a brass and scintillator hadron calorimeter (HCAL), each composed of a barrel and two endcap sections. The iron and quartz-fiber Cherenkov hadron forward (HF) calorimeters cover the range . The silicon tracker measures charged particles within the range . For charged particles with transverse momentum and , the track resolutions are typically 1.5% in \ptand 25–90 (45–150)\mumin the transverse (longitudinal) impact parameter [41]. The Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of the full CMS detector response is based on \GEANTfour [42]. The detailed description of the CMS detector can be found in Ref. [43].
0.3 Event and track selections
The measurements presented in this paper use the 8.16\TeV data set with an integrated luminosity of 186\nbinv, where the beam directions were reversed during the run after collecting the first 62.6\nbinv. The beam energies were 6.5\TeVfor protons and 2.56\TeVper nucleon for lead nuclei [44]. The results from both beam directions are combined using the convention that the proton-going direction defines positive pseudorapidity. As a result of the energy difference between the colliding beams, the nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass frame in the collisions is not at rest with respect to the laboratory frame. Massless particles emitted at in the nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass frame will be detected at in the laboratory frame. All pseudorapidities reported in this paper are given with respect to the laboratory frame. During the data taking, the average number of collisions per bunch crossing (pileup) varied from 0.10 to 0.25. A procedure similar to that described in Ref. [45] is used for identifying and rejecting events with pileup.
The minimum bias (MB) 8.16\TeV events are triggered by requiring energy deposits in at least one of the two HF calorimeters above 1\GeVand the presence of at least one track with \GeVcreconstructed using hits from the pixel tracker only. In order to collect a large sample of high-multiplicity collisions, a dedicated trigger is implemented using the CMS level-1 (L1) and high-level trigger (HLT) systems [46]. At L1, the total number of ECAL+HCAL towers having deposited energy above an energy threshold of 0.5\GeVin transverse energy (\ET) is required to be greater than a given threshold (120 and 150 towers depending on the targeted multiplicity range). As part of the HLT trigger, the track reconstruction is performed online with the identical reconstruction algorithm used offline [41]. For each event selected at L1, the reconstructed vertex with the highest number of associated tracks is selected as the primary vertex at the HLT. The number of tracks with , , and a distance of closest approach less than 0.12\unitcm along the beam axis to the primary vertex is determined for each event and is required to exceed 120, 185 and 250 to enrich the sample with high-multiplicity (HM) events in the ranges 120–185, 185–250 and 250–, respectively. The events are required to contain a primary vertex within 15\unitcm of the nominal interaction point along the beam axis and 0.2\unitcm in the transverse direction. Finally, for high-multiplicity events, the trigger efficiency is required to be greater than 95%. In the multiplicity region where this requirement is not met (), MB triggered events are used.
In the offline analysis, the primary tracks, i.e. reconstructed tracks that originate from the primary vertex and satisfy the high-quality criteria of Ref. [41], are used to perform the correlation measurements, as well as to evaluate the charged-particle multiplicity () for each event. In addition, the significances of the track impact parameter with respect to the primary vertex in the transverse and longitudinal direction divided by their uncertainties are required to be less than 3. The relative \ptuncertainty must be less than 10%. To ensure high tracking efficiency, only tracks with and are used in this analysis [41].
In this analysis, about 8 billion MB and 500 million HM events are selected. Following the convention established in previous analyses [47, 33, 48], the data are shown in classes of , which is the number of primary tracks with and \GeVc, without corrections for acceptance and efficiency. The boundaries used for the results of this paper are: 10, 20, 40, 80, 120, 150, 185, 250, and 350. These boundaries are chosen to minimize the statistical uncertainty in each bin. The average for MB pPb events is about 40. The overall CMS acceptance and tracking efficiency is about 85%.
0.4 Analysis technique
The SC technique, first introduced in Ref. [16], is based on four-particle correlations using cumulants. The four-particle cumulant technique, by simultaneously correlating four particles, is known to have the advantage of suppressing nonflow quite efficiently compared to other methods [17, 30]. To study the correlation between the Fourier coefficients and , one can build, for each event, a 2-particle correlator () and a 4-particle correlator () with a complex notation average over all the events as:
[TABLE]
In the above equations, the real part of the 2- and 4-particle correlators are the cosine terms presented in Eq. (2.) The final observable, the , is defined as follows:
[TABLE]
Nevertheless, it was shown in previous studies [33] that the standard four-particle cumulant technique does not suppress all of the short-range correlation contribution. In particular, the increasing trend of SC toward low multiplicities, following a power law, is characteristic of remaining nonflow contaminations [49]. In that paper, to further suppress nonflow, the subevent technique is used based on the calculation published in Ref. [37]. In the two-subevent case, the first and second subevents are defined as and . The bounds for three subevents are 2.4, 0.8, 0.8, 2.4, and for four subevents are 2.4, 1.2, 0, 1.2, 2.4. The formula of the SC calculation can be derived from Eq. (4):
[TABLE]
where , and denote the particles chosen in each subevent for the calculation and the corresponding harmonic attributed to this subevent. In Eq. (5), the notation in the 4-particle correlator means that two particles are required to be in the first subevent () while the other two are required to be in the second subevent (). Similarly, for the 2-particle correlator, one particle in each subevent is required (). A similar reasoning is applied in Eqs. (6) and (7).
The systematic uncertainties in the experimental procedure are evaluated by varying the conditions in extracting SC. The systematic uncertainties due to tracking inefficiency and misreconstructed track rate are studied by varying the track quality requirements. The selection thresholds on the significance of the transverse and longitudinal track impact parameter divided by their uncertainties are varied from 2 to 5. In addition, the relative \ptuncertainty is varied from 5 to 10%. The sensitivity of the results to the primary vertex position along the beam axis () is quantified by comparing results with different selection: \unitcm and \unitcm, and the possible contamination by residual pileup interactions is studied by varying the pileup rejection criteria from no pileup rejection at all to selecting events with only one reconstructed vertex. Finally, to study potential trigger biases, a comparison to high-multiplicity data for a given multiplicity range that were collected by a lower-threshold trigger with 100% efficiency is performed. This uncertainty is found to be negligible, while the other systematic uncertainty sources have contributions of 1% each, independent of . The total systematic uncertainties are estimated to be 1.8% for SC.
0.5 Results
The results of symmetric cumulants and obtained with the 2-, 3-, and 4-subevent methods for \GeVcare shown in Fig. 1, as functions of multiplicity in collisions at . For comparison, the results with no subevents from Ref. [33] are also shown for the range (the SC with no subevents for lower multiplicities are out of range because of the choice of the y-axis scale). The systematic uncertainties are the same for no and -subevents ().
Both and diverge toward large positive values for low- ranges () using the no-subevent method, likely because of a dominant contribution from few-particle short-range correlations, as discussed in Ref. [33]. Using the subevent method, the contributions from short-range correlations are significantly suppressed [39, 40]. No significant positive values with subevent methods are observed over the entire event multiplicity range. The 2- and 3-subevent preserve significant negative signals down to , while the 4-subevent tends to show a monotonic trend gradually converging to zero at . Similar behavior is also observed for , where 2- and 3-subevent values remain positive but the 4-subevent decreases to zero toward . As the 4-subevent method is the most powerful in eliminating nonflow effects, the observed trends in 4-subevent and provide evidence for the onset of long-range collective particle correlations from low to high multiplicities in collisions.
For , the no-subevent and -subevent methods give consistent results for , suggesting that the contribution from nonflow effects is negligible. For , there is a difference clearly observed between no-subevent and -subevent results even up to the highest multiplicities investigated. This observation is illustrated more clearly in Fig. 2, which shows the and relative differences between 2 subevents and 3 or 4 subevents. The results (Fig. 2, left) are consistent among the 2-, 3- and 4-subevent methods, while there is an approximately 10–40% difference for (Fig. 2, right) between the 2-subevent and 3- or 4-subevent methods. The 3-subevent values are greater than the 2-subevent values, contrary to what is typically expected from non-flow contributions. This behavior may suggest the sensitivity of to other effects. In particular, the event-plane decorrelation [50] could be an important contribution to the observed behavior as also observed in Ref. [32]. The impact of event-plane decorrelation and how it may be different for and remains to be understood in future work.
0.6 Summary
The first measurement of event-by-event correlations of different Fourier harmonic orders in symmetric cumulants and with 2, 3, and 4 subevents in proton-lead () collisions at is presented using a large data sample collected by the CMS experiment. The data analyzed with the subevent method are compared to previously published results using the technique without subevents. In all cases, an anticorrelation is observed between the single-particle anisotropy harmonics and , while and are positively correlated. For charged-particle multiplicity , both standard and -subevent methods give similar results for , suggesting that nonflow effects have negligible contributions in this region. The results show a somewhat different behavior, which depends on the number of subevents in the same multiplicity region. By significantly suppressing the nonflow contribution, the 4-subevent results for both and show a monotonically decreasing magnitude toward zero at . These new results presented in this paper provide evidence for the onset of long-range collective particle correlations from low to high multiplicity events in collisions. The observed multiplicity dependence of multiparticle azimuthal correlations may further constrain the physical origin of the collectivity observed in small system collisions.
