Measurements of open charm hadron production in Au+Au Collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 200 GeV at STAR

Published 23 Dec 2018 in nucl-ex and hep-ex | (1812.09787v1)

Abstract: We report on the measurements of production of various charmed hadrons in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 200 GeV (including $D{0}(\overline{D{0}})$ and $\Lambda_{c}{\pm}$) obtained via topological reconstruction, utilizing the Heavy Flavor Tracker at STAR. Precise results on the $D{0}$ yields from the 2014 data are reported for a wide transverse momentum range down to 0 in various centrality bins. With the high-statistics data collected in 2014 and 2016, and the usage of a supervised machine learning algorithm for signal-to-background separation, the first measurement of the centrality and transverse momentum dependences of $\Lambda_{c}{\pm}$ production is shown. Finally, the total charm quark cross section extracted from these measurements in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 200 GeV is presented.
