Parton cascade effect on 2- and 3- particle correlation (1)hadron cascade mechanism also can produce 2- and 3-particle correlation, but it can not give big enough splitting parameters. (2) the parton cascade mechanism is essential for describing the amplitude of experimental mach-like structure
Conclusion • Di-hadron correlations can be produced by a a multi-phase transport model (AMPT). • Mach-like structure is born in the partonic process and further developed in hadronic rescattering process. • hadron cascade mechanism can produce di-hadron correlation, but it can not give big enough splitting parameters. • 3-particle correlations were investigated in the central Au+Au collisions with AMPT, partoni cascade will enhance the spilt of Mrch-like cone.
