Three-particle correlation centrality dependence 3-particle correlation density definition:
Parton cascade effect on 2- and 3- particle correlation (1)Hadronic rescattering mechanism also can produce 2- and 3-particle correlation, but it can not give big enough splitting parameters. (2) Parton cascade mechanism is essential for describing the amplitude of experimental mach-like structure.
Conclusion • Di-hadron correlations can be produced by a multi-phase transport model(AMPT). • Mach-like structure is born in the partonic process and further developed in hadronic rescattering process. • hadronic rescattering mechanism can produce di-hadron correlation, but it can not give big enough splitting parameters. • Cone , deflected and center 3-particle correlations all exist in the central Au+Au collisions, however center 3-particle correlation become more dominant with the decreasing of Npart .
