Testing the presence of QGP in small systems using (multi-)strange hadron correlations with a ϕ meson
arxiv(2024)
摘要
The study delves into the enhanced production of strange and multi-strange
hadrons in proton-proton collisions at LHC. Novel observables are proposed to
distinguish between models describing existing data with or without the
assumption of a QGP. Two models are explored: EPOS4, based on core-corona
separation between a QGP phase and a vacuum phase, and PYTHIA 8.3, based on
microscopic interactions between Lund strings. The observables are based on an
event selection requiring the presence of a ϕ meson. Correlations between
the ϕ and (multi-)strange hadrons are shown to be an excellent
discriminator between the two types of models. These observations emphasize the
need for further testing in upcoming LHC Runs, leveraging improved detectors
and increased data collection.
