Measurement of Identified Hadron Production in Charged Jets from Proton-Lead Collisions with ALICE at the LHC — •Martin Schmidt for the ALICE collaboration — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Tübingen
The spectra of identified hadrons in jets offer possibilities to investigate the fragmentation of partons in detail. By comparing the results for proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions we can test hypotheses about cold nuclear matter effects.
The ALICE experiment at the LHC has excellent particle identification capabilities for tracks with transverse momentum ranging from 150 MeV/c to above 20 GeV/c. It therefore can measure identified hadrons in a way that is unique at the LHC.
In p-Pb collisions the underlying event, coming from soft interactions, cannot be neglected and spoils the jet measurements. We present methods to measure the individual contributions of π/K/p to the underlying event and discuss how to properly subtract it from the particle production inside the jet area. The study of the underlying event in p-Pb collisions also serves as a proof of principle to adapt the methods later on for lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions where the underlying event is huge.
We show the corrected jet constituent spectra from p-Pb collisions with systematic uncertainties as a function of pTtrack,charged and z=pTtrack, charged/pTjet, charged.
