(for STAR) QM05, NP A774:599-602,2006 For the first time: femtoscopy in p+p and A+A measured in same experiment, same analysis definitions, …. great opportunity to compare physics what causes m T -dependence in p+p? same cause as in A+A?

23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 4 Ratio of femtoscopic radii All p T (m T ) dependences of HBT radii observed by STAR scale with pp although it’s expected that different origins drive these dependences Femtoscopic radii scale with pp Scary coincidence or something deeper? pp, dAu, CuCu - STAR preliminary Ratio of (AuAu, CuCu, dAu) HBT radii by pp Z.

Direct connection to source shapes [Danielewicz,Pratt: nucl-th/0501003] – decomposition of CF on cartesian harmonics ~immune to acceptance full information content at a glance [thanks to symmetries] : [0,2 ] : [0, ] Z.Ch., Gutierrez, Lisa, Lopez-Noriega, nucl-ex/0505009 This new method of analysis represents, in my opinion, a real breakthrough.

23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 12 GenBod: Phase-space sampling with energy/momentum conservation F. James, Monte Carlo Phase Space CERN REPORT 68-15 (1 May 1968) Sampling a parent phasespace, conserves energy & momentum explicitly –no other correlations between particles ! Events generated randomly, but each has an Event Weight WT ~ probability of event to occur P conservation Induces “trivial” correlations (i.e. even for M=1) Energy-momentum conservation in n-body system
13
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 13 Sampling MC Events Low probability (PS weight) High probability (PS weight) 30 particles To treat MC events identical to measured events we have to sample them according to WT (PS weight) Then we can construct CF

23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 26 Findings Energy and Momentum Conservation Induced Correlations (EMCICs) “resemble” our data so, EMCICs... on the right track... But what to do with that? –Sensitivity to s, multiplicity of particles of interest and other particles –will depend on p 1 and p 2 of particles forming pairs in |Q| bins risky to “correct” data with Genbod... Solution: calculate EMCICs using data!! –Danielewicz et al, PRC38 120 (1988) –Borghini, Dinh, & Ollitraut PRC62 034902 (2000) we generalize their 2D p T considerations to 4-vectors

28
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 28 Central Limit Theorem k-particle distribution in N-particle system For simplicity we will assume that all particles are identical (e.g. pions) -> they have the same average energy and RMS’s of energy/momentum Then, we can apply CLT (the distribution of averages from any distribution approaches Gaussian with increase of N) Can we assume that E and p are not correlated ?
29
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 29 E - p correlations?
30
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 30 EMCICs in single-particle distribution ? What if all events had the same “parent” distribution f, and all centrality dependence of spectra was due just to loosening of P.S. restrictions as N increased? in this case, the index i is only keeping track of particle type

41
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 41 Findings first-order and full calculations agree well for N>9 –will be important for “experimentalist’s recipe” Non-trivial competition/cooperation between p T, p z, E terms –all three important p T1 p T2 term does affect “out-versus-side” (A 22 ) p z term has finite contribution to A 22 (“out-versus-side”) calculations come close to reproducing simulation for reasonable (N-2) and energy

46
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 46 Summary understanding the femtoscopy of small systems –important physics-wise –should not be attempted until data fully under control SHD: “efficient” tool to study 3D structure Restricted P.S. due to energy-momentum conservation –sampled by GenBod event generator –generates EMCICs quantified by A lm ’s –stronger effects for small mult and/or s Analytic calculation of EMCICs –k-th order CF given by ratio of correction factors –“parent” only relevant in momentum variances –first-order expansion works well for N>9 –non-trivial interaction b/t p T, p z, E conservation effects Physically correct “recipe” to fit/remove EMCICs –4 new parameters, determined @ large |Q| –parameters are “physical” - values may be guessed

48
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 48 Some properties of A lm coefficients A lm = 0 for l or m odd – identical particle correlations (for non-id particles, odd l encodes shift information) A 00 (Q) ≈ one-dimensional “CF(Qinv)” (bump ~ 1/R) A lm (Q) = l,0 where correlations vanish A l≠0,m (Q) ≠ 0 anisotropy in Q space Im[A lm ] = 0
49
23rd WWND, Big Sky, MT - Feb. 12-17, 2007 49 Long-range correlations : JETS ? Jets as a origin of the baseline problem ?? The idea was to try to eliminate pions coming from jet fragmentation from data sample. It can be done by applying an event cut which accepts only events that have no high-pt tracks (jets). HBT analyses where done for three classes of events all - all events accepted – as a reference soft – only events without high-p T tracks ( highest-p T < 1.2 GeV/c was chosen) hard - only events with least one track with p T > 2 GeV/c
