mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april Perfect Press Releases Perfect or not, creation of a bulk system at RHIC is established - flow This system is very color dense and largely opaque to partons traversing it - R AA ?Are these statements unique to A+A collisions? blah blahthe quick brown/..fox...jumped..ove... th lazydog /// whatever one wants to say here s.....is just fine with mw. It’s not mattering at all. This is just a bunch of squiglly, unreadable text on this sllide I hope nobody can read itanyways since it is all nonsense. Not like that distinguishes it very much from much of my other writing, of course. But what the hell... OKlet’s just finish this lnbe and we’re done ature of EoS unde estigation ; agreement wi data might be accidental ; viscous hydrodynamics under development ; assumption of thermalization in question sensitivity to modeling of initial state, under intense study

Alexander “plausible” in z-direction unlikely in transvrse 2. String fragmentation? (Lund) p T dependence maybe (??) mass dependence probably no [Andersson, Moriond 2000] 3. Resonance effects? e.g. Wiedemann & Heinz ‘97 maybe, but will be significantly different effect than for Au+Au Zbigniew Chajecki QM05 p+p and A+A measured in same experiment, same acceptance, same techniques unique opportunity to compare physics what causes p T -dependence in p+p? same cause as in A+A?
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april pp, dAu, CuCu - STAR preliminary Ratio of (AuAu, CuCu, dAu) HBT radii by pp R(p T ) taken as strong space-time evidence of flow in Au+Au clear, quantitative consistency predictions of BlastWave “Identical” signal seen in p+p cannot be of “identical” origin? (other than we “know it cannot”...)

mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april AA versus pp: pT spectra in soft sector
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april p T spectra in soft sector: evidence against flow in p+p? STAR PRL (2004) minbias p+p 70-80% Au+Au 0-5% Au+Au s NN = 200 GeV Blast-wave fit to spectra: much less explosive flow in p+p collisions BUT!
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april But remember! “distortion” of single-particle spectra What if the only difference between p+p and A+A collisions was N? measured “matrix element” Then we would measure:
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april Multiplicity evolution of spectra - p+p to A+A (soft sector) N evolution of spectra dominated by PS “distortion” p+p system samples same parent distribution, but under stronger PS constraints 5% central Au+Au minbias p+p “corrected” minbias p+p “corrected” minbias p+p scaled
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april Multiplicity evolution of spectra - within p+p (soft sector) STAR, PRD (2006) What if the only difference between multiplicity-selected p+p collisions was N? Then we would measure: pion mass assumed

mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april So you are saying that... There may be a bulk, collective system created in p+p, as A+A?? soft-sector signals: femtoscopy, spectra obscured if one ignores PS This bulk medium might suppress jets, similar to in A+A?? though P.S. effects make it appear opposite to A+A Whoever heard of such a stupid idea?!

Fig. 3
mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april Does this maybe suggest......that the flow in A+A is nothing more than the individual p+p collisions flowing? (i.e. A+A is superposition of p+p) No! Quite the opposite. femtoscopically A+A looks like a big BlastWave not superposition of small BlastWaves A+A has thermalized globally spectra superposition of spectra from p+p has same shape as a spectrum from p+p! relaxation of P.S. constraints indicates A+A has thermalized globally

mike lisa - Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics -12 april Summary Collective motion: critical observable of bulk sector at RHIC bulk matter, “perfect liquid,” etc. evidence in AA from spectra, anisotropic flow, id and non-id femtoscopy apples::apples A+A::p+p invaluable to identify onset of bulk (or “new”) behaviour conservation laws can distort p+p, generating potentially misleading results p+p collisions may be more similar to A+A than usually thought collective flow? Rpp behaves “similar” to RAA? Danger of confusing “trivial” (?) effects with physics
