Jonathan Bouchet, For the STAR collaboration Charm reconstruction using a micro-vertexing technique with the STAR Silicon Vertex Detectors Motivation Heavy Flavor measurement in STAR STAR detector and microvertexing technique Some initial results Summary and future measurements Jonathan Bouchet, For the STAR collaboration XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011

Charmed mesons in Heavy Ion collisions Heavy flavor is produced at the earlier stages of the collision via gluon fusion : not affected by chiral symmetry restoration. production cross section are found to binary scale[1]. ideal to probe the medium created in HI collision. Theoretical models predicted gluon radiative energy loss for heavy quarks to be smaller than of light quarks[2], which is not experimentally observed [3]. Measuring collective motion (v2) of charm mesons will also indicate whether thermalization in light quark sector is reached in the earlier steps of the collision. [1]Phys. Rev. Lett. 94 (2005) 082301 [2]Phys. Lett. B519 (2001) 199-206 [3]Phys. Rev. Lett. 98 (2007) 192301 XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011

Measurement via semi leptonic decays indirect method Electrons from semi-leptonic decays of B,D mesons. D0  e++X BR:6.9 % D+/- e+/-+X BR:17.2% Measurement include electrons from B and D decays. Use of specific triggers. Large pT range. At pT≥6GeV/c ,RAA(npe)~RAA(h+/-)[5]. Azimuthal correlation of electrons with open charm meson would disentangle between the charm and bottom contribution[6]. [4]:STAR Preliminary To undersrtnad this aspect , a measurement of B and D separately is needed. [4] nucl-ex/0805.0364; Y Zhang QM2008 [5] Phys. Rev. Lett 98, 1923910 (2007) [6] Phys. Lett.

Measurement via hadronic decays Combinatorial method Measurement of hadronic decay modes via invariant mass analysis. D0 (D0)K-+(K+-) BR : 3.8 % D+/-K BR : 9.2% Obtained by pairing identified kaons and pions. No triggers, no decay vertex reconstruction. Typically limited to low momentum (pT<3GeV/c).

XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio STAR detector (in 2007) SSD TPC SVT The tracking system consisted of : TPC : provides track momentum, particle identification. 2 silicon detectors : 1 layer of silicon strip detectors (SSD) and 3 layers of silicon drift detectors (SVT). high spatial resolution : pointing resolution of 280µm in transverse direction was achieved with Cu+Cu data in run 5 (y2005)[9].

Distance of Closest Approach resolution RHIC run 7 Au+Au@200GeV (MinBias trigger). DCA resolution as a function of inverse momentum. Reflect the (detector+alignment) resolution and Multiple Coulomb Scattering (MCS). STAR preliminary Including the silicon detectors in the tracking improves the pointing resolution. with 4 silicon hits, the pointing resolution to the interaction point ~ 220µm at P = 1GeV/c.(order of magnitude of charmed particles decays. For example, c(D0) = 123µm)  Note : the Silicon Vertex detectors were not designed (thickness, geometry) for charm measurement. XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011

XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio Decay fitting Full reconstruction/fit of the decay vertex [10]. Introduction/Use of full track error matrix for best error estimates. Optimization of cuts based on MC studies. K- π+ 3d path length from primary vertex to decay particle vertex [10] Decay Chain Fitting with a Kalman Filter,W. D. Hulsbergen (arxiv:physics,0503191) XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011 7

Secondary vertex fit (simulation studies) Correlation between the reconstructed decay and MC Mean of the difference reconstructed -MC Rms of the difference reconstructed -MC Reconstructed decay[cm] Reconstructed decay - GEANT decay[cm] There is no systematic shift in reconstructed quantities. The standard deviation of the distribution is flat at ~ 250 m , which is of the order of the resolution of (SSD+SVT). XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011 8 8

Proof of principle with K0s Signed decay length : an excess can be observed on the positive side of the decay length distribution, indicating the presence of long-lived decays. use the decay length significance SL = L/L to improve the signal. more appropriate because of the momentum dependence of the decay length. Test with K0s decay reconstruction : K0S π+ π- (BR = 69.2%) ; c = 2.68 cm ; Mass = 0.497 MeV/c2 background Signal+background Before cut After cut  After using a cut SL > 10, a clear peak at the K0S mass is observed.

Invariant mass of D0 and D0bar separately Uncorrected raw yield Au+Au at s=200GeV Uncorrected raw yield Au+Au at s=200GeV Ratio of D0bar/D0 = 1.05 +/- .19(stat.) XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011

Summary and perspectives We presented a method (and preliminary results) using full track information plus a secondary vertex fit using Silicon Vertex information to obtain higher precision data. Ongoing efforts : To tune cuts to maximize S/N. Evaluate background using different methods (track rotation, event mixing etc). Estimate efficiency correction to obtain pT spectra. Estimate v2 of D0s. Silicon upgrades (under construction) in STAR will perform detailed exclusive charm and bottom studies. XLIV International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, Bormio 23-29 January 2011

Future measurements at STAR future upgrade in STAR : Heavy Flavor Tracker[11] Low mass detector designed to identify mid-rapidity Charm and Beauty mesons and baryons through direct reconstruction and measurement of the displaced vertex with unprecedented pointing resolution. CMOS sensors will provide single track resolution ~ 20-30 µm. [11]: E.
