8 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 8 Sensitivity to gluon contribution of FF NLO pQCD calculations by W. Vogelsang NLO pQCD calculations with KKP FF are consistent with pion data at high p T (> 2 GeV/c) They are inconsistent with the proton+anti-proton data KKP : B. A. Kniehl, G. Kraner and B. Potter, Nucl. Phys. B 597 (2001) 337 Difference between KKP and Kretzer FF is the way g   g   fragmentation is more in KKP STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161 (KKP-Kretzer)/Kretzer Gluons Light quarks

9 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 9 Uncertainties in FF Recent compilation and error analysis of available fragmentation functions by (KKP,Kretzer, AKK) by Hirai et al. (hep-ph/0702250) Pions Protons

10 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 10 Light flavor separated FF NLO pQCD calculations with AKK FF are consistent with pion data at high p T (> 2 GeV/c) NLO pQCD calculations with AKK FF compares relatively better than KKP for the p+  p data  AKK differ from KKP, in the way the light flavor FF are obtained from the light flavor separated measurements in e+e- collisions by OPAL AKK : S. Albino, B. A. Kniehl, and B. Potter, Nucl. Phys. B 725 (2005) 181 OPAL: Eur. Phys. J. C 16 (2000) 407

11 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 11 What about strange particles ?  NLO pQCD calculations with AKK FF compares relatively better than KKP for the strange particle data  Lambda gluon FF was constrained using STAR data Calculations by W.Vogelsang (BNL) AKK : S. Albino, B. A. Kniehl, and B. Potter, Nucl. Phys. B 725 (2005) 181 STAR (nucl-ex/0607033) accepted for Publication in Phys Rev C

12 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 12  0 production at forward rapidity Inclusive forward p 0 production in p+p collisions at 200 GeV consistent with NLO pQCD calculations At small h, data consistent with KKP, as h increases data approaches cal. with Kretzer set of FF STAR, Phys.Rev.Lett.97,152302 (2006) probing the initial gluon densities

13 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 13 Gluon Jets Vs. Quark Jets Protons dominated by gluon FF & pions by quark FF at RHIC Gluon jet contribution to protons is significantly larger than to pions at high p T in p+p collisions at RHIC.

14 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 14 m T -scaling STAR data shows baryon-meson splitting, hence supports dominance of gluon jets at RHIC In PYTHIA gluon jets produce baryon-meson splitting whereas quark jets produce mass splitting. Gluon jet Quark jet PYTHIA 6.3 STAR (nucl-ex/0607033)

15 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 15 x T -Scaling n ~ 4 for basic scattering process n ~ 5-8 depending on evolution of structure function and fragmentation function (as seen in data)  Suggests transition from soft/hard processes ~p T =2GeV STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161 e + e - collisions p+p /  p+p collisions  K p x T = 2p T /  s TPC, PRL 61(1988) ALEPH,ZPC66(1995) ARGUS,ZPC44(1989) Cross-section are multiplied by (  s NN ) 2 factor n~6.5

16 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 16 Particle Ratios – PYTHIA comparison PYTHIA  predicts a more prominent p T dependence forp/p and a flat dependence at high p T for      predicts an even stronger dependence forCurrent data does not allow to conclude, but is consistent with gluon jet dominated production. STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161 STAR (nucl-ex/0607033)

17 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 17 Baryon-meson ratios Gluon Jets will produce a larger Baryon/Meson ratio than quark-jets in the region of interest PYTHIA cannot describe Baryon-Meson ratio at intermediate p T even with tuned K-factors. In addition di-quark probabilities need to be tuned. PYTHIA also under-predicts the Baryon-meson ratio other energies:  /K 0 UA1, s= 630 GeV  p/ at ISR and FNAL: 19-53 GeV STAR (nucl-ex/0607033) STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161  s=630 GeV  s=200 GeV

18 mark.heinz@yale.edu DIS 2007, Munich 18 Conclusions NLO pQCD describes the proton and  p T spectrum for the first time in p+p collisions Importance of the significant improvement of FF for baryons and strange particles from the light-flavor separated measurements in e+e- collisions (OPAL) Neutral pion p T spectra at forward rapidity provides unique data to study pQCD processes and understand the gluon vs. quark jet contributions m T -scaling together with x T scaling in p+p collisions shows that the dominance of hard process (related to PDF and FF) over soft process for minbias collisions starts at p T ~ 2 GeV/c Splitting of high baryon-meson m T spectra confirms gluon jet dominance at RHIC Anti-particle to particle ratio is show little dependence to p T for the studied p T range again indicating gluon jet dominance at RHIC for these processes Baryon-to-meson ratios not well reproduced by LO pQCD (PYTHIA), over a broad range of energies in p+p collisions
