Investigating charm quark energy loss in medium with the nuclear modification factor of D0-tagged jets

The nuclear modification factor RAA of charm jets, identified by the presence of a D0 meson among the jet constituents, has been measured for the first time in Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The D0 mesons and their charge...

Description
Résumé:The nuclear modification factor RAA of charm jets, identified by the presence of a D0 meson among the jet constituents, has been measured for the first time in Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The D0 mesons and their charge conjugates are reconstructed from the hadronic decay D0→K−π+. Jets are reconstructed from D0-meson candidates and charged particles using the anti-kT algorithm with jet resolution parameter R=0.3, in the jet transverse momentum (pT) range 5 <pTchjet< 50 GeV/c and pseudorapidity |ηch jet|<0.6. A hint of reduced suppression in the charm-jet RAA is observed in comparison to inclusive jets in central Pb-Pb collisions with a significance of about 2σ in 20 <pTchjet< 50GeV/c, suggesting the in-medium energy loss to depend on both the difference between quark and gluon coupling strength (Casimir colour-charge effect) and quark mass (dead-cone effect). The data are compared with model calculations that include mass effects in the in-medium energy loss. Several state-of-the-art models are consistent with the data, with the LIDO model providing the best description of the data in the common kinematic range of inclusive and D0-tagged jets, highlighting the role of mass effects in interpreting the results.
