Measurement of charged particle multiplicities and densities in pp collisions root s=7 TeV in the forward region

Résumé

Charged particle multiplicities are studied in proton-proton collisions in the forward region at a centre-of-mass energy of TeV with data collected by the LHCb detector. The forward spectrometer allows access to a kinematic range of in pseudorapidity, momenta greater than and transverse momenta greater than . The measurements are performed using events with at least one charged particle in the kinematic acceptance. The results are presented as functions of pseudorapidity and transverse momentum and are compared to predictions from several Monte Carlo event generators.

Energy–momentum relation

In physics, the energy–momentum relation, or relativistic dispersion relation, is the relativistic equation relating total energy (which is also called relativistic energy) to invariant mass (which is also called rest mass) and momentum. It is the extension of mass–energy equivalence for bodies or systems with non-zero momentum. It can be written as the following equation: This equation holds for a body or system, such as one or more particles, with total energy E, invariant mass m0, and momentum of magnitude p; the constant c is the speed of light.

Masse au repos

La masse au repos, masse propre ou encore masse invariante (par opposition à la masse relative ou masse relativiste, dépendante du référentiel), usuellement notée , est la masse inerte d'un corps dans un référentiel inertiel où il est au repos, ou d'un système physique dans un référentiel inertiel où son centre d'inertie est au repos. Elle est principalement utilisée en relativité restreinte et en physique des particules.

Proton

Le proton est une particule subatomique portant une charge électrique élémentaire positive. Les protons sont présents dans les noyaux atomiques, généralement liés à des neutrons par l'interaction forte (la seule exception, mais celle du nucléide le plus abondant de l'univers, est le noyau d'hydrogène ordinaire (protiumH), un simple proton). Le nombre de protons d'un noyau est représenté par son numéro atomique Z. Le proton n'est pas une particule élémentaire mais une particule composite.
