Investigating strangeness enhancement with multiplicity in pp collisions using angular correlations
(2024)
A study of strange hadron production associated with hard scattering processes and with the underlying event is conducted to investigate the origin of the enhanced production of strange hadrons in small collision systems characterised by large charged-particle multiplicities. For this purpose, the production of the single-strange meson K0S and the double-strange baryon Ξ± is measured, in each event, in the azimuthal direction of the highest-pT particle (``trigger" particle), related to hard scattering processes, and in the direction transverse to it in azimuth, associated with the underlying event, in pp collisions at s√=5.02 TeV and s√=13 TeV using the ALICE detector at the LHC. The per-trigger yields of K0S and Ξ± are dominated by the transverse-to-leading production (i.e., in the direction transverse to the trigger particle), whose contribution relative to the toward-leading production is observed to increase with the event charged-particle multiplicity. The transverse-to-leading and the toward-leading Ξ±/K0S yield ratios increase with the multiplicity of charged particles, suggesting that strangeness enhancement with multiplicity is associated with both hard scattering processes and the underlying event. The relative production of Ξ± with respect to K0S is higher in transverse-to-leading processes over the whole multiplicity interval covered by the measurement. The K0S and Ξ± per-trigger yields and yield ratios are compared with predictions of three different phenomenological models, namely PYTHIA 8.2 with the Monash tune, PYTHIA 8.2 with ropes and EPOS LHC. The comparison shows that none of them can quantitatively describe either the transverse-to-leading or the toward-leading yields of K0S and Ξ±.
The first measurement of the impact-parameter dependent angular anisotropy in the decay of coherently photoproduced ρ0 mesons is presented. The ρ0 mesons are reconstructed through their decay into a pion pair. The measured anisotropy corresponds to the amplitude of the cos(2ϕ) modulation, where ϕ is the angle between the two vectors formed by the sum and the difference of the transverse momenta of the pions, respectively. The measurement was performed by the ALICE Collaboration at the LHC using data from ultraperipheral Pb−Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair. Different impact-parameter regions are selected by classifying the events in nuclear-breakup classes. The amplitude of the cos(2ϕ) modulation is found to increase by about one order of magnitude from large to small impact parameters. Theoretical calculations, which describe the measurement, explain the cos(2ϕ) anisotropy as the result of a quantum interference effect at the femtometer scale that arises from the ambiguity as to which of the nuclei is the source of the photon in the interaction.
he first measurement of 3ΛH and 3Λ¯¯¯¯H¯¯¯¯ differential production with respect to transverse momentum and centrality in Pb−Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02~TeV is presented. The 3ΛH has been reconstructed via its two-charged-body decay channel, i.e., 3ΛH→3He+π−. A Blast-Wave model fit of the pT-differential spectra of all nuclear species measured by the ALICE collaboration suggests that the 3ΛH kinetic freeze-out surface is consistent with that of other nuclei. The ratio between the integrated yields of 3ΛH and 3He is compared to predictions from the statistical hadronisation model and the coalescence model, with the latter being favoured by the presented measurements.
The total charm-quark production cross section per unit of rapidity dσ(cc)/dy, and the fragmentation fractions of charm quarks to different charm-hadron species f(c → hc), are measured for the first time in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV at midrapidity (−0.96 < y < 0.04 in the centre-ofmass frame) using data collected by ALICE at the CERN LHC. The results are obtained based on all the available measurements of prompt production of ground-state charm-hadron species: D0, D+,D+s, and J/ψ mesons, and Λ+cand Ξ0cbaryons. The resulting cross section is dσ(cc)/dy = 219.6±6.3 (stat.)+10.5−11.8(syst.)+7.6−2.9(extr.)±5.4 (BR)±4.6 (lumi.)±19.5 (rapidity shape) +15.0 (Ω0c) mb, which is consistent with a binary scaling of pQCD calculations from pp ollisions. The measured fragmentation fractions are compatible with those measured in pp collisions at √s = 5.02 and 13 TeV, showing an increase in the relative production rates of charm baryons with respect to charm mesons in pp and p–Pb collisions compared with e+e − and e−p collisions. The pT-integrated nuclear modification factor of charm quarks, RpPb(cc) = 0.91±0.04 (stat.) +0.08 −0.09 (syst.) +0.04 −0.03 (extr.)±0.03 (lumi.), is found to be consistent with unity and with theoretical predictions including nuclear modifications of the parton distribution functions.
The production cross section of inclusive isolated photons has been measured by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at centre-of-momentum energy of s√=13 TeV collected during the LHC Run 2 data-taking period. The measurement is performed by combining the measurements of the electromagnetic calorimeter EMCal and the central tracking detectors ITS and TPC, covering a pseudorapidity range of |ηγ|<0.67 and a transverse momentum range of 7<pγT<200 GeV/c. The result extends to lower pγT and xγT=2pγT/s√ ranges, the lowest xγT of any isolated photon measurements to date, extending significantly those measured by the ATLAS and CMS experiments towards lower pγT at the same collision energy with a small overlap between the measurements. The measurement is compared with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations and the results from the ATLAS and CMS experiments as well as with measurements at other collision energies. The measurement and theory prediction are in agreement with each other within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties.
Der verstärkte Umgang mit Wissen in den Wirtschaftswissenschaften ist in den letzten Jahren in den Fokus der Wissenschaftler geraten. Ausgeblendet wurde dabei größtenteils die Kehrseite von Wissen, die Frage nach dem "Nichtwissen". Das Nichtwissen ist aufgrund der vorherrschenden Auffassung des gesellschaftlichen Bildes mit einer negativen Notation behaftet. Die zunehmende Auseinandersetzung des Nichtwissens in den Geisteswissenschaften bringt die positiven Funktionen zur Geltung. Der vorliegende Artikel zeigt zunächst die erfolgsfördernden Funktionen des Nichtwissens auf und implementiert somit Chancen des Nichtwissens in einem wirtschaftwissenschaftlichen Rahmen. Im Anschluss werden empirische Befunde, resultierend aus einer Befragung, die an der Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main durchgeführt wurde, präsentiert.
We test two hypotheses, based on sexual selection theory, about gender differences in costly social interactions. Differential selectivity states that women invest less than men in interactions with new individuals. Differential opportunism states that women’s investment in social interactions is less responsive to information about the interaction’s payoffs. The hypotheses imply that women’s social networks are more stable and path dependent and composed of a greater proportion of strong relative to weak links. During their introductory week, we let new university students play an experimental trust game, first with one anonymous partner, then with the same and a new partner. Consistent with our hypotheses, we find that women invest less than men in new partners and that their investments are only half as responsive to information about the likely returns to the investment. Moreover, subsequent formation of students’ real social networks is consistent with the experimental results: being randomly assigned to the same introductory group has a much larger positive effect on women’s likelihood of reporting a subsequent friendship.
Essays in behavioral economics - evidence on self-selection into jobs, social networks and leniency
(2013)
Die Dissertation mit dem Titel „Essays in Behavioral Economics – Evidence on Self-Selection into Jobs, Social Networks and Leniency“ besteht aus einer Sammlung von vier wissenschaftlichen Abhandlungen. Alle Arbeiten verbindet die Analyse von theoretischen Konzepten und Erkenntnissen der Verhaltensökonomie unter Verwendung der experimentellen Methode. Die erste wissenschaftliche Abhandlung trägt den Titel „Sorting of Motivated Agents - Empirical Evidence on Self-Selection into the German Police“ und untersucht Selbstselektion bestimmter Individuen in den Polizeiberuf. Die experimentelle Studie untersucht die Frage, ob Polizeibewerber sich hinsichtlich ihrer Präferenzen in Bezug auf ihr Normdurchsetzungsverhalten in den Polizeiberuf selektieren. Die zweite Abhandlung greift diese Erkenntnisse auf und untersucht Polizeianwärter in ihrer Berufsausbildung ebenfalls hinsichtlich ihrer Normdurchsetzungsbereitschaft. Die Arbeit trägt den Titel „Selection and formation of motivated agents -- empirical evidence from the German Police”. In der dritten wissenschaftlichen Abhandlung werden geschlechterspezifische Unterschiede bei der Wahl von Partnern und dem Aufbau des sozialen Netzwerkes untersucht. Diese trägt den Titel „Selectivity and opportunism: two dimensions of gender differences in trust games and network formation“ und wurde zusammen mit Guido Friebel, Marie Lalanne, Paul Seabright und Peter Schwardmann verfasst. Die vierte Abhandlung geht einer aktuellen Fragestellung der Industrieökonomie nach und trägt den Titel „Antitrust, auditing and leniency programs: evidence from the laboratory“, verfasst mit Mehdi Feizi and Ali Mazyaki. In ihrer Gesamtheit liefert meine Dissertation Antworten auf personalpolitische, soziale und industrieökonomische Fragestellungen.
