Charged Particle Multiplicity in DIS Request for Preliminary M. Rosin, D. Kçira, and A. Savin University of Wisconsin L. Shcheglova Moscow State University, Institute of Nuclear Physics July 5th, 2004 http://www-zeus.desy.de/~sumstine/multip
Introduction • Details: http://www-zeus.desy.de/~sumstine/multip • short introduction to the method • new measurement in Breit Frame • Plots for preliminary
Study: <nch> vs. Meff CAL within the CTD acceptance CTD Charged Hadrons & Effective Mass:experimental method • Measure HFS within for best CTD acceptance • Measure # charged tracks, reconstruct number of charged hadrons • Measure invariant mass of the system (Meff) in corresponding delta eta region. • Energy is measured in the CAL
The use of Meff as energy scale • For ep in lab frame, measure visible part of <nch> vs. visible part of energy available for hadronization: Meff • Previously shown in e+e- and pp that the number of charged particles vs. invariant mass of the system is universal • Based on previous studies in e+e-, one can assume that the visible part of the system behaves as the total, maybe excluding the remnants • We compare our measurement to e+e- and pp Whad Meff Lab Frame Visible part Meff: HFS measured in the detector where the tracking efficiency is maximized
1996-97 Data sample • Event Selection • Scattered positron found with E > 12 GeV • A reconstructed vertex with |Zvtx| < 50 cm • Scattered positron position cut: radius > 25cm • 40 GeV < E-pz < 60 GeV • Diffractive contribution excluded by requiring ηmax> 3.2 • Track Selection • Tracks associated with primary vertex • || < 1.75 • pT > 150 MeV • Physics and Kinematic Requirement • Q2 da > 25 GeV2 • y el < 0.95 • y JB > 0.04 • 70 GeV < W < 225 GeV ( W2 = (q + p)2 ) 735,007 events after all cuts (38.58 pb-1)
Event simulation • Ariadne ’96-’97 4.08 • Matrix elements at LO pQCD O(s) • Parton showers: CDM • Hadronization: String Model • Proton PDF’s: CTEQ-4D • Lepto 6.5.1 • Including SCI • Also used Lepto without SCI Luminosity of MC : 36.5 pb-1
Kinematic Variables, Meff and Tracks • 96-97 data compared to ARIADNE and LEPTO w/SCI • Both ARIADNE and LEPTO show good agreement for kinematics, Meff & tracks
Comparison of e+e-, pp, & ep • agreement between e+e- and pp for <nch> vs. invariant mass. • <nch> * 2 vs. Q for ep measured in the current region of the Breit frame (CRBF) agree with e+e- and pp for higher Q • Lab frame points lie above e+e- and pp, and above the previous ZEUS measurement in CRBF. • ARIADNE describes data dependence, LEPTO higher than the data, LEPTO w/ SCI even higher. Used both for correcting data: systematic errors small • Agree with 1995 preliminary measurement of <nch> vs. Meff in lab frame • Request for preliminary
Lab frame: <nch> vs. Meff in x bins • Check if ep vs. e+e- and pp difference is due to quark and gluon distributions: study x and Q2 dependence • x range split into similar bins as in previous multiplicity paper. • weak x dependence in both data and MC observed not sufficient to explain difference • Request for Preliminary • Q2 dependence? => next page
Lab frame: x and Q2 bins • Data described by ARIADNE • LEPTO above data • No Q2dependence observed • Request for preliminary
Breit Frame - Change to scale Meff • Using Meff agreement between: • Lab frame • Breit Frame Current Region • Breit Frame Target Region • Number of charged hadrons plotted vs. Meff shows similar behavior for the lab frame, and current & target region of Breit frame • Plotting <nch> vs. Meff for CRBF doesn’t yield agreement with e+e- • Request for Preliminary
PT PL Invariant Mass Invariant Mass in the Current Region • Look closer at current region of Breit frame (CRBF) try to find better way to compare to e+e- • Shown here is invariant mass for the CRBF • Invariant mass calculated as before using the total energy in the CRBF Current Hemisphere
E θ = π θ = 0 E θ E E E E Invariant Mass Calculation With the same energy of the particles, one gets very different invariant mass of the system depending on the system configurations.
“Mirrored” invariant mass Invariant Mass Construction Current region Breit Frame • universality is not observed between e+e- and ep • Assume universality may be broken because system not uniform but rather collimated • Expect inv. Mass of CRBF to change significantly if we “mirror” each particle, with another particle with the same energy but opposite momentum. • M2 = (Eobs+Emirrired)2-(pobs+pmirrored)2 M = 2EBreit • Total number of particles increased by 2 collimated
Breit Frame - Change to scale Meff • Points lie slightly above the e+e- points. • This approximation of invariant mass partially takes into account the real distribution of the particles. • Similar studies for target region are hampered by the fact that the analogy between our target region and the target region in pp is a bit more complex. • Request for Preliminary
Comparison to 2nd analysis • Agreement between 1st and 2nd analysis within 1% for all preliminary plots: • Lab Frame • Current Region Breit Frame • Target Region Breit Frame • X bins • X and Q2 bins • Current Region Breit Frame vs. 2*E
Summary Request 5 plots for preliminary:
