[Brahms-l] Fw: new Phobos paper on correlations

FYI


Subject: new Phobos paper on correlations


> Dear Sam, Bill, Flemming, and Tim,
> It is my pleasure to announce Phobos'  intention to submit a new  
> paper to PRC. We plan to submit it in a week's time.  The abstract

> Title: "Forward-Backward Multiplicity Correlations in $\snn=200$ GeV
> Au+Au Collisions"
> 
> Abstract:
> "Forward-backward correlations of charged-particle multiplicities
> in symmetric bins in pseudorapidity are studied in order to gain
> insight into the underlying correlation structure of particle
> production in Au+Au collisions.  The PHOBOS detector is used to
> measure integrated multiplicities in bins centered at $\eta$,
> defined within $|\eta|<3$, and covering intervals $\Delta \eta$.
> The variance $\stc$ of a suitably defined forward-backward asymmetry
> variable $C$ is calculated as a function of $\eta$, $\Delta\eta$,
> and centrality.  It is found to be sensitive to short range
> correlations, and the concept of ``clustering'' is used to interpret
> comparisons to phenomenological models."
