Dielectron analysis in p+p collisions at 1.58 GeV beam energy with HADES — •Karina Scharmann for the HADES collaboration — Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen
In this contribution we present preliminary results on the dielectron production in p+p interactions at 1.58 GeV beam energy measured with the High Acceptance DiElectron Spectrometer (HADES). The HADES RICH detector has been upgraded with a new photon detection camera which strongly enhances the electron efficiency and conversion pair rejection. With this upgrade, a signal-to-background ratio above 1 is achieved over the entire dielectron spectrum. 0.5 billion collisions have been analyzed showing a contribution of π0 and η Dalitz decays in a signal up to an invariant mass of 500 MeV/c2. Furthermore, by analyzing elastic p+p collisions, a normalization procedure for differential cross sections has been established.
The cross section spectrum shows a satisfactory agreement to previous HADES measurements as well as theoretical calculations from GiBUU. Furthermore this spectrum can serve as a baseline for the understanding and interpretation of Ag+Ag collisions which have been measured in HADES at the same energy. A precise understanding of the dielectron production in elementary reactions is needed to disentangle the various contributions to the measured dielectron yield in Ag+Ag collisions.
