Abstract
In a hot and dense medium created in the collisions of heavy ions at high energy large topological fluctuations of QCD fields can occur, leading to possible effects of the local violation of P-symmetry in strong interactions. We proposed a search for charged \({{a}_{0}}\) meson decay into three charged pions as a signature of the local strong parity breaking. Using PYTHIA Monte Carlo generator with enabled required decay channels we investigated invariant mass spectrum and analyzed the signal and background contributions. As a result, we estimated minimal number of pp collision events for significant signal of the P-breaking decay.
期刊介绍:
The journal Fizika Elementarnykh Chastits i Atomnogo Yadr of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR, Dubna) was founded by Academician N.N. Bogolyubov in August 1969. The Editors-in-chief of the journal were Academician N.N. Bogolyubov (1970–1992) and Academician A.M. Baldin (1992–2001). Its English translation, Physics of Particles and Nuclei, appears simultaneously with the original Russian-language edition. Published by leading physicists from the JINR member states, as well as by scientists from other countries, review articles in this journal examine problems of elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, condensed matter physics, experimental data processing, accelerators and related instrumentation ecology and radiology.
