    Collisional Energy Loss of Non Asymptotic Jets in a QGP

    Get PDF
    We calculate the collisional energy loss suffered by a heavy (charm) quark created at a finite time within a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in the classical linear response formalism as in Peigne {\it et al.} \cite{peigne}. We pay close attention to the problem of formulating a suitable current and the isolation of binding and radiative energy loss effects. We find that unrealistic large binding effects arising in previous formulations must be subtracted. The finite time correction is shown to be important only for very short length scales on the order of a Debye length. The overall energy loss is similar in magnitude to the energy loss suffered by a charge created in the asymptotic past. This result has significant implications for the relative contribution to energy loss from collisional and radiative sources and has important ramifications for the ``single electron puzzle'' at RHIC.Comment: 15 Pages, 11 figures, revte

    Wajah Politik Muhammadiyah

    Full text link
    Muhammadiyah is known as community organization based on religious principle which act on disseminating Islamic values in order to reform Islamic principle to become purely. In its growth, Muhammadiyah does not far away from political activities that is not really its field. Various roles in political context are played by Muhammadiyah both external an internal space. This article's aim is describing relationship pattern between Muhammadiyah and political field to reinforce Muhammadiyah actual face in politic

    Steady States of Infinite-Size Dissipative Quantum Chains via Imaginary Time Evolution

    Full text link
    Directly in the thermodynamic limit, we show how to combine imaginary and real time evolution of tensor networks to efficiently and accurately find the nonequilibrium steady states (NESS) of one-dimensional dissipative quantum lattices governed by the Lindblad master equation. The imaginary time evolution first bypasses any highly correlated portions of the real-time evolution trajectory by directly converging to the weakly correlated subspace of the NESS, after which real time evolution completes the convergence to the NESS with high accuracy. We demonstrate the power of the method with the dissipative transverse field quantum Ising chain. We show that a crossover of an order parameter shown to be smooth in previous finite-size studies remains smooth in the thermodynamic limit.Comment: 5+3 pages, 5 figures, 2 table

    Symmetry between repulsive and attractive interactions in driven-dissipative Bose-Hubbard systems

    Full text link
    The driven-dissipative Bose-Hubbard model can be experimentally realized with either negative or positive onsite detunings, inter-site hopping energies, and onsite interaction energies. Here we use one-dimensional matrix product density operators to perform a fully quantum investigation of the dependence of the non-equilibrium steady states of this model on the signs of these parameters. Due to a symmetry in the Lindblad master equation, we find that simultaneously changing the sign of the interaction energies, hopping energies, and chemical potentials leaves the local boson number distribution and inter-site number correlations invariant, and the steady-state complex conjugated. This shows that all driven-dissipative phenomena of interacting bosons described by the Lindblad master equation, such as "fermionization" and "superbunching", can equivalently occur with attractive or repulsive interactions.Comment: single column 12 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl

    3D Jet Tomography of Twisted Strongly Coupled Quark Gluon Plasmas

    Full text link
    The triangular enhancement of the rapidity distribution of hadrons produced in p+A reactions relative to p+p is a leading order in A^{1/3}/log(s) violation of longitudinal boost invariance at high energies. In A+A reactions this leads to a trapezoidal enhancement of the local rapidity density of produced gluons. The local rapidity gradient is proportional to the local participant number asymmetry, and leads to an effective rotation in the reaction plane. We propose that three dimensional jet tomography, correlating the long range rapidity and azimuthal dependences of the nuclear modification factor, R_{AA}(\eta,\phi,p_\perp; b>0), can be used to look for this intrinsic longitudinal boost violating structure of A+AA+A collisions to image the produced twisted strongly coupled quark gluon plasma (sQGP). In addition to dipole and elliptic azimuthal moments of R_{AA}, a significant high p_\perp octupole moment is predicted away from midrapidity. The azimuthal angles of maximal opacity and hence minima of R_{AA} are rotated away from the normal to the reaction plane by an `Octupole Twist' angle, \theta_3(\eta), at forward rapidities.Comment: 10 Pages, 16 Figures, RevTex, Replaced with Peer reviewed verion for PR
