Description
In the recent years, there have been lot of interests in
measuring and understanding the azimuthal correlations, amongst
particles produced in heavy ion collisions,separately for same-sign
pairs and for opposite-sign pairs and to see their differences.
This is because the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) states that
Parity-odd domains can interact with the very large magnetic fields
in non-central heavy-ion collisions resulting charge-separation
parallel to the system’s orbital angular momentum. Both at RHIC
and LHC energies, differences have been found in the azimuthal
correlations for same-sign and for opposite-sign pairs.
We propose to use the Sliding Window Method,SWM,(Phys.Lett. B638 (2006) 39) to search for localized Event-by-Event charge separation in different azimuthal windows in the pseudo-rapidity region |$\eta$| < 1 in non-central Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV. The efficiency of the SWM as a function of injected signal will be presented for 2M Au+Au hijing events at 200 GeV.
