Abstract

Particle production in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC reveals an enhancement of the baryon-to-meson ratios with respect to pp collisions. The observed suppression of high-pT particles raises the question of how the jet fragments may (re)distribute in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. With two-hadron correlations, we can study the particle composition in jets in order to get a better understanding of the aforementioned observables and the particle production mechanisms in the dense medium. In these proceedings, we present the status of the current analysis using two-hadron angular correlations for Pb-Pb collisions at = 2.76 TeV using the ALICE detector. We study the two different possibilities, considering the strange particle as either the trigger particle or the associated particle. Results on K0s-h±, (Λ A)-h± and h±-K0S correlations are shown for central collisions.

Highlights

  • The main purpose of studying heavy-ion collisions at ultra-relativistic energies is to understand the phase transition of nuclear matter into a state of deconfined partons: the so called QuarkGluon Plasma

  • It has been shown that, compared with mesons, baryons are more likely to be produced in gluon jets [8]. In these proceedings we present the status of the ongoing analysis performed with strange particles using the two-particle co√rrelation technique

  • Summary We have presented the current status of two-particle correlations using strange hadrons √as trigger particles (K0S, Λ) and as associated particles (K0S) in central Pb–Pb collisions at sNN = 2.76 TeV
