Hadron Suppression and Nuclear kT Enhancement Studied with Neutral Pions from p+C, p+Pb, and Pb+Pb Collisions at sNN = 17.3 GeV Quark Matter 2006 November 18, 2006 Klaus Reygers University of Münster Germany for the WA98 collaboration

The question is … High-pT-hadron suppression at RHIC Strong evidence for QGP formation Characterization of the medium (dNgluon/dy  1500) What can we say at CERN SPS energies? 2 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006

Is there Jet Quenching at sNN = 17.3 GeV? We don’t know! p+W @ s = 19.4GeV Parameterization from Blattnig et al: Large uncertainty! Blattnig et al., Phys. Rev. D 62 (2000) 094030 Parton energy loss dNgluon/dy = 400 – 600 D. d’Enterria, Phys. Lett. B 596 (2004), 32 C. Blume, nucl-ex/0609022 No measured p+p reference at same energy Nuclear kT enhancement not well understood at sNN ~ 17 GeV 3 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006

Cronin Enhancement at sNN = 17.3 GeV Calculation without parton energy loss: Cronin enhancement: Slightly larger in A+A than in p+A Strongly model dependent: Maximum enhancement factors between ~2 and ~4 sNN = 17 GeV Cronin + shadowing I. Vitev, M. Gyulassy, PRL 89, 252301,2002 I. Vitev, M. Gyulassy Barnaföldi et al., nucl-th/0307062 X.N. Wang, PRC 61, 064910, 2000 Expect to take out effect of Cronin enhancement on RAA to large extent with p+Pb reference 4 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006

Idea of this Analysis: p+C and p+Pb as Reference for Pb+Pb RAA Reaction System Year Pb+Pb at sNN = 17.3 GeV 1994, 1995, 1996 p+C, p+Pb at sNN = 17.3 GeV 1996 p0 spectra published: Eur.Phys.J.C23:225-236,2002 Presented in this talk p + C: → Replacement for p+p reference (Ncoll  1.7  expect small Cronin enhancement) p + Pb: → Study nuclear kT enhancement by comparing to p+C → Reference for RAA in Pb+Pb: partially removes effect of Cronin enhancement 5 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006

WA98 Experiment High Energy Photon Trigger (pT,g > ~ 0.7 GeV/c) Minimum bias trigger 6 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006

p+C as p+p Reference NA49, Eur. Phys. J. C 45, 343 (2006) preliminary preliminary No indication of Cronin enhancement in p+C from comparison to NA49 p+p Agreement with Blattnig parameterization within errors 11 Klaus Reygers, Quark Matter 2006
