M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Chemical Freezeout Data – Fit (  ) Ratio Particle ratios well described by T ch = 160  10 MeV,  B = 24  5 MeV These Numbers are obtained by assuming FREE BE/FD distributions (s 1/2 = 200 A GeV)

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Hadrons in Matter? How to Observe? initial state pre-equilibrium QGP and hydrodynamic expansion hadronization hadronic phase and freeze-out Fast Time Evolution In Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions Experimentally observed hadrons: hadrons at T=0 Hadronic Decays in Medium: Decay products are rescattered e.g., Mass shift is expected NOT to be observed Indeed NO mass shift or width change is observed for  reconstructed from K + K - Furthermore, modified hadrons are quantum mechanically different from hadrons in the vacuum ⇒ discuss later

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Hadrons and Leptons/Photons Leptons, Photonsinteract only weakly (e.m.) thus, carry information of QGP/hadron phases Hadrons strong interaction thus, only info. of hadron phase (with some exceptions)

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) CERES(NA45) pA data for e + e - production Dileptons yields and spectra: well-described by superposition of leptonic decay of final state hadrons

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Hadron Modification in HI Collisions? Comparison with Theory (with no hadron modification) Experimental Data Mass Shift ? Broadening ? or Both ? or More Complex Structure ?

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) More CERES(NA45) AB data Also, in heavier systems, the enhancement is observed

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Why Theoretically Unsettled Mass Shift (Partial Chiral Symmetry Restoration) Spectrum Broadening (Collisional Broadening) Observed Dileptons Sum of All Contributions (Hot and Cooler Phases)

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Vector Channel SPF Spectral Function and Dilepton Production Dilepton production rate, info. of hadron modification...etc.: encoded in A holds regardless of states, either in Hadron phase or QGP Definition of Spectral Function (SPF) Dilepton production rate

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Many Body Approach 1 Klingl et al. (1997)    vector dominance +  hole model

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Many Body Approach 2 Rapp and Wambach (1999) Due to  -hole contribution, non-Lorentzian Lorentzian Assumption ab initio : not justified Neither is Smeared Source (on the lattice)

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Mass shift or Coll. broadening or  -hole or... QCDSR Assumption for the shape of the spectral function Strongly depends on 4-quark condensates Conventional Many Body Approach Model dependence How is the effect of chiral symmetry restoration taken into account?

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Lattice? But there was difficulty... and are related by What’s measured on the Lattice is Correlation Function D(  ) However, Measured in Imaginary Time Measured at a Finite Number of discrete points Noisy Data Monte Carlo Method  2 -fitting : inconclusive ! K( ,  ): Known Kernel

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Way out ? Example of inconclusiveness of  2 -fitting 2 pole fit by QCDPAX (1995) Furthermore, too much freedom in the choice of ansatz

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Difficulty on Lattice Typical ill-posed problem Problem since Lattice QCD was born Thus, what we have is Inversion Problem continuous d i s c r e t e noisy

Asakawa (Osaka University) MEM Maximum Entropy Method successful in crystallography, astrophysics,...etc. a method to infer the most statistically probable image (such as A(  )) given data In MEM, can put and must put statistical errors Reconstructed from X-ray diffraction image Fourier Transformed Available at only Discrete Points Noisy Data Sc 3 C 8 2

Asakawa (Osaka University) a method to infer the most statistically probable image (=A(  )) given data Principle of MEM Theoretical Basis: Bayes’ Theorem In MEM, Statistical Error can be put to the Obtained Image MEM In Lattice QCD In MEM, basically Most Probable Spectral Function is calculated H: All definitions and prior knowledge such as D: Lattice Data (Average, Variance, Correlation…etc. ) Bayes' Theorem

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) such as semi-positivity, perturbative asymptotic value, …etc. Default Model given by Shannon-Jaynes Entropy For further details, Y. Nakahara, and T. Hatsuda, and M. A., Prog. Part. Nucl. Phys. 46 (2001) 459 Ingredients of MEM

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Error Analysis in MEM (Statistical) MEM is based on Bayesian Probability Theory In MEM, Errors can be and must be assigned This procedure is essential in MEM Analysis For example, Error Bars can be put to Gaussian approximation

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Uniqueness of MEM Solution Unique if it exists ! T. Hatsuda, Y. Nakahara, M.A., Prog. Part. Nucl. Phys. 46 (2001) 459 only one local maximummany dimensional ridge  S - L if  = 0 (usual  2 -fitting) The Maximum of  S - L ∝ log(P[D|AH]P[A|H]) = log(P[A|DH])

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) 1. Can J/  produced and escape before QGP is formed ? 2. Can J/  survive as a Coulombic resonance ? 3. Are there competitive non-plasma J/  suppression mechanisms ? 4. Could J/  suppression be compensated in the hadronization stage ? 5.

The unexpected charge fluctuation at RHIC Actually, explained by Quark Recombination (Constituent Quark Matter) First pointed out by Bialas in a schematic way (2002) Analysis with Correlations due to Gluon Fragmentation, Diquarks,..etc in progress (Nonaka, Muller, Bass, M.A.) v 2 & yields: also sensitive to internal structure of hadrons such as a 0, f 0,  +,...etc. NMFBA (2004) Mysterious observed Charge Fluctuation (STAR, without (questionable) correction) In Naive QGP: D ~ 1 Naive Resonance gas: D ~ 3

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Critical End Point in QCD CEP How can CEP be seen in Heavy Ion Collisions? Color Super Conductors 2SC, dSC, CFL...

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) CEP = 2nd order phase transition, but... If expansion is adiabatic Divergence of Fluctuation Correlation Length Specific Heat ? CEP = 2nd Order Phase Transition Point How does the system evolve near CEP? What can be observed if CEP exists ? General Belief: Non-Monotonic Behavior as a function of the beam energy Questions Coll. Energy T BB

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Need to know EOS If the critical region is tiny, hopeless to see, anyway Assume critical region is large Universality: belongs to the same universality class as 3d Ising Model CLUE to EOS T BB T BB

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) EOS Mapping of 3d Ising Model variables to those in QCD Matching of Singular Behavior near CEP and Hadronic Matter/QGP EOS below/above phase transition For Details, C. Nonaka and M.A., nucl-th/ T E =154.7MeV,  BE =367.8MeV CEP crossover 1st order

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Isentropic Trajectories In each volume element, Entropy(S) and Baryon Number (N B ) are conserved, as long as entropy production can be ignored Isentropic Trajectories (n B /s = const.) without CEP(EOS in usual hydro calculation) with CEP Focusing of Isentropic Trajectories Excluded Volume Approximation + Bag Model EOS

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Effect on Freezeouts 1 (chemical) If focusing takes place, are the chemical freezeout points focused? Not Necessarily Hadrons near CEP (generally in hot phase) Quantum Mechanically Different from ones in the vacuum e.g., Csorgo, Gyulassy, and M.A., PRL 99

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Effect on Freezeouts 2 (Thermal) On the left side of CEP s decreases smoothly, while on the right side of CEP s decreases quickly (1st order PT) On the left side of CEP, thermal freezeout takes place at lower T? Xu and Kaneta, nucl-ex/ (QM2001) Yes, this is indeed the case! At RHIC, radial expansion is faster HBT size: similar Similar or Higher Thermal Freezeout Temperature would be expected, but this is not the case crossover 1st order

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Summary (1) It seems J/  and  c ( p = 0 ) remain in QGP up to ~1.6T c Sudden Qualitative Change between 1.62T c and 1.70T c ~34 Data Points look sufficient to carry out MEM analysis on the present Lattice and with the current Statistics (This is Lattice and Statistics dependent) Physics behind is still unknown Spectral Functions in QGP Phase were obtained for heavy quark systems at p = 0 on large lattices at several T Both Statistical and Systematic Error Estimates have been carefully carried out

M. Asakawa (Osaka University) Summary (2) Recent RHIC data suggest Realization of Deconfined Phase But No Gluonic Degrees of Freedom look needed Success of Hydrodynamics without Viscosity suggests existence of strongly interacting matter just above T c Focusing Effect near CEP for Isentropic Trajectories ⇒ Weak Non-monotonic behavior of observables as a function of collision energy? Effect on Flow? Low Thermal Freezeout Temperature at RHIC suggests existence of CEP
