2 STAR 2 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics outline previous results and motivation data analysis data, comparison and interpretation high-p T and low-p T phenomena across energy and system-size summary

3 STAR 3 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics previous results and motivation

4 STAR 4 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics two effects: relative to p+p collisions spectral suppression B/M enhancement in Au+Au effect are turned on and off dependent on centrality how can one understand these effects? system size dependence energy* dependence * discussed in the previous talk by Bedanga Phys.Rev.Lett. 91 (2003) 072304 Phys.Rev.Lett. 97 (2006) 152301 Phys.Lett. B637 (2006) 161 previous results: inclusive spectra & B/M ratio

5 STAR 5 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics motivation: 1. why high-p T ? why do we look at high-p T ? cartoon showing the relative effects of N part and N coll scaling calculable by pQCD

6 STAR 6 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics motivation: 2. why identified particles? why do we look at identified particles? at high-p T affords insight into gluon and quark jet production gluon jets produce more baryons than quark jets a probe relative energy loss for quark and gluon jets expected, but not seen Phys.Lett. B606 (2005) 303

7 STAR 7 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics motivation: 3. why Cu+Cu? smaller system-size is Central Cu+Cu ~ Central Au+Au? or Central Cu+Cu ~ Peripheral Au+Au? observe path length effects of energy loss with Cu+Cu can explore the turn on of the suppression Phys.Lett. B639 (2006) 38 p T >6GeV/c

18 STAR 18 12-17 February 2007 Richard Hollis University of Illinois at Chicago Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics Cu+Cu data: questions: how do Cu+Cu and Au+Au compare? fractional cross-section number of collisions/participant number of particles produced (N ch at mid-rapidity) i.e. Cu+Cu (0-20%) =? Au+Au (0-20%) or Cu+Cu (N part ) =? Au+Au (N part )* or Cu+Cu (N ch ) =?
