  1. Multiple Partonic Interaction measurements at LHCb Raluca Muresan HoriaHulubei National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering On behalf of the LHCb collaboration Measuring Multiple Partonic Interactions at the LHC Research Workshop of the Israel Science Foundation 14-18 October 2012, Tel Aviv, Israel

  2. Disclaimer This talk represents a collections of LHCb results: soft-QCD, EW, charm production relevant for the MPI models, rather than a collection of measurements of the MPI observables and their interpretation. The list might not be exhaustive and some of the results presented are flashed or only hinted at. R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  3. LHCb detector Designed to look for physics beyond the SM by studies of CPviolation and raredecays usingb & c hadrons JINST 3 (2008) S08005. R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  4. LHCb detector • Forward coverage • 15-300(250) mrad, high precision tracking and vertexing, • excellent PID • Perfect tool for a large variety of physics studies in the forward region JINST 3 (2008) S08005. R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  5. Unique space coverage LHCbfully instrumentedinanhrangefrom 2 to 5. Forward region particularly sensitive to MPI and low Bjorken-x QCD dynamics R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  6. LHCb data 0.9 TeV 0.31 nb−1; 2.76 TeV 100 nb−1; 37.5 pb−1 7 TeV (2010) pA data taking planed for the beginning of the next year R. Muresan - MPI atLHCb

  7. Large coverage in rapidity loss 0.9 TeV & 2.76 TeV farther from the beam in y; 7 TeV & 8 TeV, overlap in rapidity loss; probing energy scale violation. R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  9. LHCb - soft QCD results • KS0x-section @ 0.9 TeV, PLB 693 (2010) 69-80; • V0 ratios: baryon vs. meson suppression & baryon number transport at @ 0.9 TeV and 7 TeV;JHEP 1108 (2011) 034. • ϕ cross-section @ 7 TeV; PLB 703 (2011) 267-273. • Charged particle multiplicities @ 7 TeVEPJC 72 (2012) 1947 • Measurement of forward energy flow LHCb-CONF-2012-012 @ 7 TeV • Particle ratios at 0.9 & 7 TeV, arXiv:1206.5160 (accepted EPJ. C) R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  10. Multiplicity studies • Particles counted using the tracks in Vertex Locator: high efficiency, minimal material interaction, partial backward coverage, but no momentum measurement. • Prompt charge particle production e, μ, p ,K, p with sum average proper lifetimes of the ancestors < 10ps. • 2 x 1.5 M events, both magnet polarities were used. Eur. Phys. J. C 72 (2012) 1947 R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  11. Multiplicity studies Eur. Phys. J. C 72 (2012) 1947 Charged particle densities Several generators & tune predictions were compared to the data; none are able to describe them fully; as a general trend the multiplicity and charged particle densities are underestimated Multiplicity distributions R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  12. Forward energy flow • Energy flow (EF) @ high η - directly sensitive to the amount of parton radiation and Multiple Parton Interaction (MPI). • EF measurements results useful both for the collision physics and for the ultra-high energy cosmic-ray interaction models. • EF defined as: dEtot is the total energy of stable particles in the ηbin Nintnumber of inelastic pp interactions Experimentally determined for a Δη bin: Ei,ηenergy of an individual particle LHCb-CONF-2012-012 R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  13. Data and event sample • Inclusive MB at least one track p>2 GeV/c • Hard scattering at least one track pT > 3 GeV/c • Diffractive enriched inclusive MB with no tracks in −3.5<η<−1.5 • Non-diffractive enriched inclusive MB with at least one track in −3.5<η<−1.5 • 0.1 nb-1 low luminosity LHC run @7 TeV • Events with at least one well reconstructed track Correction for detector effects - bin-by-bin from simulation • Systematic uncertainties: • tracking • multiple interaction events (5% of events) • simulation model LHCb-CONF-2012-012 R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  14. Total forward energy flow LHCb-CONF-2012-012 Corrected total EF compared with PYTHIA generator predictions. Total EF underestimated at high η by all the PYTHIA6 tunes used and for all event categories studied. PYTHIA 8 describes well the total EF for diffractive enriched events. Similar conclusions hold for charged energy flow R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  15. Total forward energy flow LHCb-CONF-2012-012 Corrected total EF compared with cosmic ray generators predictions. Cosmic-ray models overestimate the total EF. SYBILL/EPOS gives the best description of the total EF for inclusive MB events. QGSJETII-03 gives reasonable description of the total EF for hard scattering events. R. Muresan - MPI at LHCb

  16. Prompt hadron production ratios • 0.3 nb-1 of data @0.9 TeV and 1.8 nb-1@7 TeV low int LHC run. • Simulated events used to calculate efficiencies and estimate systematic uncertainties. • PID calibration using data samples of • Corrections applied for: • effects of non-prompt contamination, • geometrical acceptance losses, • track finding inefficiency. • Systematic uncertainties: • PID (most important – size of calibration sample) , • interaction x-section & amount of material, • tracking & non-prompt contamination. arXiv:1206.5160 R.
