论文摘要

We report on the $W$ and $Z/γ^*$ differential and total cross sections as well as the $W^+$/$W^-$ and $(W^+ + W^-)$/$(Z/γ^*)$ cross-section ratios measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC in $p+p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 500$ GeV and $510$ GeV.横截面及其比率对夸克和古夸克的分布函数敏感。特别是,在领先顺序上,$ W $横截面比对$ \ bar {d}/\ bar {u} $比率敏感。这些测量值以高$ q^2 \ sim m_w^2,m_z^2 $进行,并可以作为全球分析的输入,以提供有关Sea Quark分布的约束。此处介绍的结果结合了2011年,2012年和2013年的三个星数据集,积累了350 pb $^{ - 1} $的集成发光度。我们还评估了我们的$ w^+/w^ - $横截面比将对各种夸克分布产生的预期影响,并找到对$ \ bar {u} - \ bar {d} $和$ \ bar {d}/\ bar {u} $ distribution的敏感性。

We report on the $W$ and $Z/γ^*$ differential and total cross sections as well as the $W^+$/$W^-$ and $(W^+ + W^-)$/$(Z/γ^*)$ cross-section ratios measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC in $p+p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 500$ GeV and $510$ GeV. The cross sections and their ratios are sensitive to quark and antiquark parton distribution functions. In particular, at leading order, the $W$ cross-section ratio is sensitive to the $\bar{d}/\bar{u}$ ratio. These measurements were taken at high $Q^2 \sim M_W^2,M_Z^2$ and can serve as input into global analyses to provide constraints on the sea quark distributions. The results presented here combine three STAR data sets from 2011, 2012, and 2013, accumulating an integrated luminosity of 350 pb$^{-1}$. We also assess the expected impact that our $W^+/W^-$ cross-section ratios will have on various quark distributions, and find sensitivity to the $\bar{u}-\bar{d}$ and $\bar{d}/\bar{u}$ distributions.
