Basic Postulates of Kinetic Molecular Theory: Particle Size, Energy, and Collision02:43

Basic Postulates of Kinetic Molecular Theory: Particle Size, Energy, and Collision

35.0K
The ideal-gas equation, which is empirical, describes the behavior of gases by establishing relationships between their macroscopic properties. For example, Charles’ law states that volume and temperature are directly related. Gases, therefore, expand when heated at constant pressure. Although gas laws explain how the macroscopic properties change relative to one another, it does not explain the rationale behind it.

Ziegler–Natta Chain-Growth Polymerization: Overview01:17

Ziegler–Natta Chain-Growth Polymerization: Overview

3.5K
Ziegler–Natta polymerization is another form of addition or chain‐growth polymerization used for synthesizing linear polymers over branched polymers. The catalyst used for polymerization is the Ziegler–Natta catalyst, named after Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta, who developed it in 1953. This catalyst is an organometallic complex of titanium tetrachloride and triethyl aluminum, with the active form of the catalyst being an alkyl titanium compound. Using the Ziegler–Natta...

Nuclear Transmutation03:20

Nuclear Transmutation

19.0K
Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one nuclide into another. It can occur by the radioactive decay of a nucleus, or the reaction of a nucleus with another particle. The first manmade nucleus was produced in Ernest Rutherford’s laboratory in 1919 by a transmutation reaction, the bombardment of one type of nuclei with other nuclei or with neutrons. Rutherford bombarded nitrogen-14 atoms with high-speed α particles from a natural radioactive isotope of radium and observed...

Thomson's e/m Experiment

4.9K
In a beam of charged particles created by a heated cathode, the particles move at different speeds. However, many applications need a beam with uniform particle speeds. An arrangement known as a velocity selector uses electric and magnetic fields to pick particles with a particular speed from the beam.
A particle with charge q, speed v, and mass m enters an area from the top, where the magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular both to the particle's motion and to one another. The...

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Overview01:27

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Overview

1.2K
An applied magnetic field causes loosely bound π-electrons in organic molecules to circulate, producing a local or induced diamagnetic field over a large spatial volume. As the molecules tumble in solution, the field generated by π-electrons in spherical substituents results in a zero net field. However, the net field generated by π-electrons in non-spherical substituents is not zero. The effect of this induced field depends on the orientation of the molecule with respect to B0,...

Properties of the z-Transform I01:17

Properties of the z-Transform I

349
The z-transform is a fundamental tool in digital signal processing, enabling the analysis of discrete-time systems through its various properties. It is an invaluable tool for analyzing discrete-time systems, offering a range of properties that simplify complex signal manipulations. One fundamental property is linearity. For any two discrete-time signals, the z-transform of their linear combination equals the same linear combination of their individual z-transforms. This property is essential...

Area of Science:

  • High-energy physics
  • Nuclear physics
  • Particle physics

Background:

  • Investigating the properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is crucial for understanding the strong nuclear force.
  • Z bosons provide a clean probe to study parton interactions within the QGP due to their well-defined production mechanism and decay.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To measure the spectra of charged hadrons produced in association with Z bosons in lead-lead (Pb-Pb) and proton-proton (pp) collisions.
  • To investigate modifications of parton showers and medium response in heavy-ion collisions by comparing Pb-Pb data to pp reference data.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of data from the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
  • Selection of hadronic collision events with a reconstructed Z boson candidate (pT > 30 GeV/c).
  • Measurement of azimuthal angular distributions and fragmentation functions of charged hadrons relative to the Z boson direction.

Main Results:

  • Observed modifications in the azimuthal angular correlations of charged hadrons in central Pb-Pb collisions compared to pp collisions.
  • Significant changes in fragmentation functions and transverse momentum (pT) spectra of charged particles in central Pb-Pb events relative to the pp reference.
  • These modifications suggest alterations in the longitudinal structure of the parton shower within the QGP.

Conclusions:

  • The study provides evidence for the modification of parton showers and the medium's response in heavy-ion collisions.
  • Z boson tagged jets offer a powerful tool to probe the properties of the QGP.
  • The results highlight the sensitivity of these measurements to the in-medium effects experienced by partons.
