  1. Quark-quark double scattering in nuclei and modified (anti-)quark FF Ben-Wei Zhang 1. Texas A&M University, USA 2. Central China Normal University, China Based on the work in collaboration with X.-N. Wang and A. Schaefer

  2. Outline • Introduction • Modified FF due to quark-quark double scattering in nuclei • Multiplicity ratios of hadrons in nuclei • Summary

  3. parton hadrons ph E Jet Quenching Jet quenching has been observed as a new nuclear phenomenon at RHIC X.N. Wang, Nucl.Phys. A750 (2005) 98

  4. Quark-Quark Double Scattering • Two kinds of double scattering in eA DIS quark-gluon double scattering quark-quark double scattering

  5. Properties of q-q double scattering • Quark-quark double scattering will mix the quark and gluon fragmentation functions. • Quark-quark double scattering may give different modifications to quark FF and anti-quark FF. B.W.Zhang, X.N.Wang, A. Schaefer, in preparation

  6. Quark-quark double scattering • Single Scattering: leading twist contribution • Double Scattering: twist-4 contribution

  7. quark-quark correlation function

  8. Generalized Factorization Consider a typical quark-quark double scattering process in semi-inclusive eA DIS: J. Qiu, G. Sterman, NPB 353(1991)105; NPB 353(1991)137.

  9. LPM effect LPM effect

  10. Other processes lowest order without radiation …… ……

  11. Modified Fragmenation Function • Summing single and double scattering gives • We define the modified quark FF as:

  12. Quark-quark correlation function M. Luo,J. Qiu and G. Sterman, PRD50(1994)1951, X.F. Guo and X.N. Wang, PRL85(2000)3591.

  13. Quark and anti-quark FF(I) • We get the modification to quark FF as: • Similarly the modification to anti-quark FF is:

  14. Quark and anti-quark FF(II) • The difference between modified quark FF and modified anti-quark FF:

  15. Multiplicity ratios of hadrons • Multiplicity ratio measured at HERMES: HERMES hep-ex/0012049 hep-ex/0307023

  16. Theoretical explanation • In the constituent quark model:

  17. Summary • Quark-quark double scattering is eA DIS are studied. • Modification to quark FF in nuclei is different from the modification to anti-quark FF in nuclei. • This difference may explain the multiplicity ratios of hadrons in nuclei observed at HERMES.

  18. Summary (II) • Quark-quark double scattering can modify fragmentation functions without radiation. • Quark-quark double scattering may change the flavor of partons: quark energy lossVS gluon energy loss • In heavy-ion collisions quark-quark double scattering can not be neglected if quark density is comparable to gluon density in hot nuclear medium.
