Direct virtual photon production in Au+Au collision at 200 GeV at STAR Bingchu Huang for the STAR collaboration Brookhaven National Laboratory Aug

Outline 1. Motivation 2. eID and virtual photon extraction 3. Direct virtual photon production in Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV 4. Summary 2 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014

Motivation 3 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 Direct photon and virtual photon: Created throughout evolution of system. Very low cross-section with QCD medium. Kinetic range reveals source of productions High p T (>5 GeV/c) --- from initial hard scattering. Low p T (1-5 GeV/c) --- from QGP.

Photon Conversion Removal 7 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, Conversion electrons (~99%) are removed from signal pair reconstruction. GEANT

Background subtraction 8 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 Background sources –combinatorial background (non- physical) –correlated background e.g. double Dalitz decay, jet correlation. Background methods –mixed-event method: combinatorial only improve statistics used for correct unlike- and like-sign acceptance difference –like-sign method: combinatorial & correlated BG –pair cuts remove photon conversions

Fraction of direct virtual photon 13 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 fit range: GeV/c 2

Direct virtual photon invariant yield 14 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 No η measurement at p T <2 GeV/c. Most uncertainty comes from its yield.

Comparison 15 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 In the high p T range (5~10GeV/c): the yield is consistent with a T AA scaled fit function to PHENIX pp data. [A. Adare et al. Phys.Rev.C.81:034911, (2010)] [S.S. Adler et al. Phys.Rev.Lett., 98:012002, (2007)] In the p T range 1~5GeV/c: Compared to the pp reference, an excess is observed.

Theoretical calculation 16 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014 Theoretical calculation including QGP, ρ, meson gas, and primordial production contributions is consistent with the invariant yield at 1<p T <5 GeV/c within our uncertainty %: initial temperature about 445MeV at 0.17fm/c, fireball life time 15fm/c. [Van Hees, Gale, and Rapp, Phys. Rev. C 84, ]

Summary ■ Measured direct virtual photon production in Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV at STAR. ■ An enhancement is observed for 1<p T <5 GeV/c compared to T AA scaled PHENIX p+p results. ■ A model including QGP, ρ meson, meson gas, and primordial productions is consistent with the enhancement. 17 Bingchu Huang TPD workshop at BNL, Aug 20-22, 2014
