Forward–backward Correlations Between Mean Transverse Momenta in Pb–Pb Collisions with ALICE

Abstract

Forward-backward (FB) correlations are considered to be a powerful tool for the exploration of the early dynamics of hadronic interactions. The FB correlation functions can be constructed from different observables calculated event-by-event in two separated pseudorapidity regions. We report measurements of event-by-event average transverse momentum correlations for charged particles in two separated pseudorapidity regions in Pb–Pb collisions at √
