Single electron yields from semileptonic charm and bottom hadron decays in Au+Au collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV
2016
The PHENIX Collaboration at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has measured open heavy flavor production in minimum bias Au + Au collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV via the yields of electrons from semileptonic decays of charm and bottom hadrons. Previous heavy flavor electron measurements indicated substantial modification in the momentum distribution of the parent heavy quarks owing to the quark-gluon plasma created in these collisions. For the first time, using the PHENIX silicon vertex detector to measure precision displaced tracking, the relative contributions from charm and bottom hadrons to these electrons as a function of transverse momentum are measured in Au + Au collisions. We compare …

Production of Σ(1385)± and Ξ(1530)0 in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV
2015
The production of the strange and double-strange baryon resonances ((1385)±, (1530)0) has been measured at mid-rapidity (|y|< 0.5) in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. Transverse momentum spectra for inelastic collisions are compared to QCD-inspired models, which in general underpredict the data. A search for the φ(1860) pentaquark, decaying in the π channel, has been carried out but no evidence is seen. peerReviewed
Measurement of emission-angle anisotropy via long-range angular correlations with high-pT hadrons in d+Au and p+p collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV
2018
We present measurements of two-particle angular correlations between high-transverse-momentum (2 < pT < 11 GeV/c) π0 observed at midrapidity (|η| < 0.35) and particles produced either at forward (3.1 <η< 3.9) or backward (−3.7 <η< −3.1) rapidity in d + Au and p + p collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV. The azimuthal angle correlations for particle pairs with this large rapidity gap in the Au-going direction exhibit a characteristic structure that persists up to pT ≈ 6 GeV/c and which strongly depends on collision centrality, which is a similar characteristic to the hydrodynamical particle flow in A + A collisions. The structure is absent in the d-going direction as well as in p + p collisions, in t…
Interaction of hadrons and tests for the nature of resonances
2016
El propósito de esta Tesis es contribuir al extenso esfuerzo que se ha hecho, en las ultimas décadas, a fin de entender la estructura de las partículas hadrónicas, uno de los temas más importantes en física hadrónica. En los años 50, el desarrollo de los aceleradores de partículas reveló la existencia de una gran cantidad de nuevas resonancias. La proliferación de partículas, poco después, manifestó un patrón, y un esquema de organización para describirlo se hizo necesario. Al principio, se encontró una solución generalizando el concepto de isospín con el modelo de Fermi-Yang de 1959, en el que el protón y el neutrón aparecen como bloques fundamentales y las otras partículas como sus combin…

Dynamical Hadrons: Case Studies of Meson-Meson and Meson-Baryon Molecules and Triangle Singularities
2020
In this thesis we use various methods to study the interaction of hadrons. We focus on topics related to exotic hadrons, such as tetraquarks from meson-meson interaction, pentaquarks from meson-baryon, and also triangular singularities. We show how experimental data can be explained with our theoretical models, and make predictions that can be compared with future experiments. In chapter 1 we show our method to describe meson-meson interactions, known as chiral unitary approach, showing how the interaction of pseudoscalars generates the f0(500), f0(980) and a0(980), which appear in the two articles discussed in this chapter: that of the eta_c -> eta pi+ pi- decay, and that of the a0(980)-f0…
Measurement of ψ(2S) production as a function of charged-particle pseudorapidity density in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV and p–Pb collisions at √sNN …
2023
Production of inclusive charmonia in pp collisions at center-of-mass energy of √ s = 13 TeV and p–Pb collisions at center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √ sNN = 8.16 TeV is studied as a function of charged-particle pseudorapidity density with ALICE. Ground and excited charmonium states (J/ψ, ψ(2S)) are measured from their dimuon decays in the interval of rapidity in the center-of-mass frame 2.5 < ycms < 4.0 for pp collisions, and 2.03 < ycms < 3.53 and −4.46 < ycms < −2.96 for p–Pb collisions. The charged-particle pseudorapidity density is measured around midrapidity (|η| < 1.0). In pp collisions, the measured charged-particle multiplicity extends to about six times the average value, w…
Measurement of D-meson production at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
2017
The production cross sections for prompt charmed mesons D0, D+, D∗+ and D+s were measured at mid-rapidity in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy s√=7 TeV with the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). D mesons were reconstructed from their decays D0→K−π+, D+→K−π+π+, D∗+→D0π+, D+s→ϕπ+→K−K+π+, and their charge conjugates.With respect to previous measurements in the same rapidity region, the coverage in transverse momentum (pT) is extended and the uncertainties are reduced by a factor of about two. The accuracy on the estimated total cc¯¯ production cross section is likewise improved. The measured pT-differential cross sections are compared with the results of thre…
