Study of nuclear modification factors of (anti-)hadrons and light (anti-)nuclei in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 2.76 TeV

Abstract: The nuclear modification factors ($R_{AA}$) of $\pi^{\pm}, p(\bar p)$, and $d(\bar d)$ with $|y|&lt;0.5, p_T&lt;20.0$~GeV/c in peripheral (40-60\%) and central (0-5\%) Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt {s_{NN}}=2.76$ TeV have been studied using the parton and hadron cascade ({\footnotesize PACIAE}) model plus the dynamically constrained phase space coalescence ({\footnotesize DCPC}) model. It is found that the $R_{AA}$ of light (anti)nuclei ($d, \bar d$) is similar to that of hadrons ($\pi^\pm, p, \bar p$), and the $R_{AA}$ of antiparticles is the same as that of particles. The suppression of $R_{AA}$ at high-$p_T$ strongly depends on event centrality and mass of the particles, i.e., the central collision is more suppressed than the peripheral collision. Besides, the yield ratios and double ratios for different particle species in $pp$ and Pb-Pb collisions are discussed, respectively. It is observed that the yield ratios and double ratios of $d$ to $p$ and $p$ to $\pi$ are similar to those of their anti-particles in three different collision systems, suggesting that the suppressions of matter ($\pi^{+}, p, d$) and the corresponding antimatter ($\pi<sup>{-},\bar{p},\bar{d}$) are around the same level.
