16 16 Physics at intermediate p T

17 17 Baryon Anomaly at RHIC More (anti) baryons than pions at moderate p T (2-5 GeV/c). Does not look like vacuum jet fragmentation. Factorization assumption of jet fragmentation completely breaks down. Peripheral Central PHENIX: PRL 91, 172301 (2003), PRC 69, 034909 (2004) (anti-) Proton /  Ratio

18 18 No suppression for protons p, pbar : No suppression at intermediate p T (1.5 GeV - 4.5 GeV) Why. Is it due to strong radial flow or other mechanism? R CP ~ R AA Shaded boxes : N part, N coll determination errors. PHENIX: PRL 91, 172301 (2003), PRC 69, 034909 (2004) Recombination model Fries, et al, nucl-th/0301087 Greco, Ko, Levai, nucl-th/0301093

19 19 Other hadrons? baryon meson The mesons and baryons form two distinct groups, independent of particle mass. Diverge at p T ~ 2 GeV/c and come together at 5 GeV/c. Observed for first time at RHIC.

20 20 More on  →K + K - R AA (new Run4 data)  R AA (high statistics Run4 data) looks like the   rather than the proton, even if mass(  ) ~ mass(p)! Suggested that it’s not the mass effect (flow). Nuclear Modification Factor

21 21  meson “R cp “ from STAR Run-4 :Au+Au 200 GeV Note: it’s not R AA ! Confirmed that high statistics  data behaves like meson. Favor: recombination model at intermediate p T. R cp

22 22 System size dependence: Cu+Cu @ 200 GeV Baryon/meson ratio at 2 GeV in Cu+Cu scales as N part.  Rather is smooth transition from Cu+Cu to Au+Au. p/  ratio in Cu+Cu/Au+Au Central Au+Au Central Cu+Cu

23 23 d+Au experiment

24 24 The Baseline: p+p and d+Au p+p and d+Au data from RHIC Run-3 at √s NN =200 GeV PRELIMINARY nucl-ex/0601033 (STAR) Combination of TOF and TPC info. High p T p and  PID: Multi-Gaussian fit of dE/dx distribution (relativistic rise, TPC). Charged kaon contaminations can be estimated by K 0 s yields

25 25 R dAu and Cronin effect Phys. Lett. B 586, 244 (2004) No suppression at intermediate and high p T at midrapidity. Protons have a significant enhancement, traditionally called “the Cronin effect” (~40%). Initial Glauber-Eikonal multiple scattering model by Accardi and Gyulassy describes the data well. CGC: Kharzeev, Levin, McLerran Phys. Lett. B 561, 93 (2003) PRELIMINARY

26 26 R dA from STAR R dAu (pT = 2 - 5 GeV/c): –Proton ~1.5 (min. bias) –Pion ~1.25 (min. bias) nucl-ex/0601033 (STAR)  p

27 27 R AuAu vs. R dAu Pions suppressed by a factor of ~6 with respect to protons Proton Cronin effect larger by ~30% d+Au collisions can not account for the huge gap between protons and pions in central Au+Au collisions. PRELIMINARY

28 28 Need something else too… Recombination?! Recombination of shower partons in A+A and p+A: Thermal and shower components. HWA & YANG Phys.Rev.C70:037901,2004. “Thermal Thermal+Shower Fragmentation (one jet) Different jets. “

29 29 HBT measurements

30 HBT: Femtoscopic radii Scaling of R(d N ch /d  m T,  s NN ) for data and full hydro calculations. New tool: source imaging technique. Nice summary paper: “Femtoscopy in RHIC”, Soltz, Lisa, Pratt, Wiedemann, nucl-ex/0505014.

31 31 Femtoscopy = measurement that provides spatio-temporal information on fm scale (via interactions on MeV scale). “Femtoscopic” correlations Statistical Interference Coulomb Interaction Strong Interaction fermi sized source MeV correlation fit to Gaussian model

32 32 A simple (2-particle) source Can we resolve the  contaminations and/or see an exponential tail? Resonance cloud sub MeV correlation irresolvable reduces strength R long 2 ~   (lifetime) R side 2 ~ dx 2 (geometry) R out 2 ~ dx 2 + dt 2 - 2dxdt  decay resolvable?

33 Scaling #1 N part scaling shows clear dependence on initial state geometric overlap R long obeys dN/d  scaling R side shows slight preference R out appears to increase for lower energy systems

34 34 Scaling #2 - Transverse (pair) Mass Simple picture of space-time evolution, w/ no room for hadron re-scattering? R 2  =   ? R 2K + = R 2K - ?

35 35 The “HBT Puzzle” in Hydro 1.flow effect 2.hadronic re- scattering 1.viscosity 2.better EOS All solutions partial - break agreement w/ flow, spectra, other radii. Look again at systemmatics.

36 36 62-200 GeV Hydro vs. Data R long scaling fully reproduced R out slight increase for lower energy, agreement at mid- centrality R side hydro extrapolates back to dAu

37 37 Source imaging at AGS/RHIC 1D image yields excess over angle avg. 3D Gaussian fits  contribution or long duration tail? 3D imaging may answer nucl-th/0507015 (Brown) also nucl-th/0501003 Pratt & Danielewicz PRELIMINARY

38 38 Summary (1) Kinetic freeze-out – ,K,p: T kin decreases,  increases with centrality. –kinetic freeze-out ≈ chemical freeze-out (~ 160 MeV). Chemical freeze-out / Resonances –Provide a time scale between chemical and kinetic freeze-out. –Re-scattering and regeneration model:  > 4 fm (lower limit). Baryon/Meson effect –High statistics  R AA : meson like behavior, favorable recombination model. –Cu+Cu data: N part scaling worked. d+Au experiment –Particle type depended of R dAu : p < K < p, but not enough to account for baryon/meson effect in Au+Au. –Recombination in d+Au?

39 39 Summary (2) HBT measurements –detailed systematics in N part & dN  d  vs Hydro  R long (dN  d ,m T ) fully reproduced by hydro R out (dN  d ,m T ) decreasing with increasing  s NN R side (dN  d ,m T ) remains a challenge –Source imaging: evidence for a long tail in pion emission source. Run-6 (Mar.- Jun., 2006) will start soon! p+p (62.4 GeV, 200 GeV, 22.5 GeV?) will provide important reference data for lower energy Au+Au/Cu+Cu data set.
