3 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 3 The importance of pA measurements We expect QGP to be formed in AA, but NOT in pA Miklos Gyulassy “The deuteron-gold control experiment”

4 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 4 Centrality Dependence Dramatically different and opposite centrality evolution of Au+Au experiment from d+Au control. Au + Au Experimentd + Au Control Experiment Preliminary DataFinal Data Tom Hemmick: Quark Matter 04

5 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 5 The importance of pA measurements The jump from pp to AA (heavy) is too large to reliably provide baseline (enhancement/suppression relative to what?) separate various nuclear effects (shadowing, multiple scattering, EMC effect,…) Examples: J/ ψ production, Drell-Yan, strangeness “enhancement” Direct observation of asymmetry should come from forward-backward difference in pA In light of no QGP formation and difference from pp, large forward-backward asymmetry should be expected in pA ?

6 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 6 The p T distributions soften in a similar way in pp and dAu collisions BRAHMS R. Debbe, 2005

7 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 7 Forward-backward asymmetry in d+Au PHOBOS, PRC72, 031901(R) (2005) around 40% effect in the central bin back/forward asymmetry ratio > 1

8 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 8 Forward-backward asymmetry in d+Au BRAHMS, PRL 94, 032301 (2005) upto 40% effect back/forward asymmetry ratio > 1

9 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 9 Forward-backward asymmetry effects are much smaller then e.g. jet quenching differences BRAHMS, PRL 94, 032301 (2005) pseudorapidity asymmetry increases with centrality up to 40% effect introduce back/forward asymmetry ratio increases with rapidity (up to a point)

10 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 10 v 1,v 3 ! Paul Stankus The importance of pA measurements: other reasons Peter Steinberg 2005

11 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 11 In the past at RHIC: small detectors to go to higher rapidity PHOBOS, PRC70, 061901 (2004 ) BRAHMS, PRL 93, 242303 (2004) STAR, ALICE, ATLAS, CMS are big barrels … Notwithstanding some additions of large-rapidity capabilities

12 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 12 Front view of ALICE detector

13 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 13 … and here are many of them, with content measured (sampled) at this conference …

14 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 14 Ingredients of the pQCD calculation Shadowing parameterizations (nPDF-s) 1. Role of multiple scattering 2. Role of the EMC effect A. Adeluyi and G. Fai, PRC74, 054904 (2006) EKS, FGS, HKN, HIJING Particularly interested in (over and above intrinsic k T ) Fragmentation functions (FF-s) KKP, BKK, AKK, Kretzer B.A. Cole & Hungarians, hep-ph/0702101

15 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 15 Ingredients of the pQCD calculation Various shadowing parameterizations EKS, EPJC9, 61 (1999) FGS, PRD71, 054001 (2005) HKN, PRC70, 044905 (2004) HIJING, PLB527, 85 (2002) Scales factorization (PDF): κ p T /z fragmentation (FF): κ p T everywhere with κ = 2/3

16 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 16 Calculated spectra at RHIC -- compared to data intrinsic k T increases the calculation mostly at low p T need to include multiple scattering with HIJING shadowing for same D/T Central rapidity

17 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 17 Calculated spectra at RHIC Nonzero rapidity Forward and backward data averaged by STAR multiple scatt. influences d-side (forward) more than Au-side (backward) Need separated forward/backward data!

18 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 18 Calculated spectra at Tevatron – compared to data p + Be @ sqrt(s) ~ 35 GeV Central rapidity

19 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 19 Calculated spectra at Tevatron – compared to data Nonzero rapidity

20 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 20 Study role of multiple scattering in rapidity distributions using HIJING shadowing Pseudorapidity distribution at fixed p T intrinsic k T turned off asymmetry disappears in the absence of shadowing d+Au at RHIC deuteron side gold side

21 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 21 deuteron side gold side Add intrinsic transverse momentum in the nucleon No shadowing added symmetry preserved

22 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 22 Turn on shadowing and multiple scattering intrinsic k T increases the yield, keeping asymmetry multiple scatt. increases yield further (mostly d side), reverses asymmetry gold side deuteron side

23 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 23 Start from full calculation, turn off multiple scattering and shadowing separately shadowing suppresses yield, more on deuteron side (forward) multiple scatt. contribution is large on the deuteron side gold side

24 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 24 What happens with increasing transverse momentum? When p T becomes large compared to (broadened) intrinsic k T, intrinsic transverse momentum effects become less important + we approach antishadowing deuteron side gold side

25 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 25 What happens with increasing transverse momentum? When p T becomes large compared to (broadened) intrinsic k T, intrinsic transverse momentum effects become less important + we approach antishadowing

26 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 26 Summary so far: pseudorapidity asymmetry arises from nuclear effects in constrained geometry In an asymmetric geometry (his wine thief), if there are some physical effects (gravity here), and the conditions are carefully controlled, the medium prefers one direction over the other (here the one leading to the wine glass)

27 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 27 Nuclear modification factors for deuteron on gold total charged hadrons min. bias EKS FGS HKN intrinsic k T turned off

28 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 28 Central-to-peripheral ratio for deuteron on gold HKN Without k T and without the possibility to tune multiple scattering, R CP overpredicted at forward rapidities

29 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 29 Semicentral-to-peripheral ratio for deuteron on gold

30 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 30 Pseudorapidity asymmetry for several species in | η | < 0.5 with EKS, FGS, HKN, without k T

31 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 31 Pseudorapidity asymmetry in 0.5 < | η | < 1.0 with EKS, FGS, HKN, without k T HKN

32 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 32 Comparing the two kinds of descriptions no significant difference at small η differences at high p T and higher pseudorapidity GO TO LHC ! at high η and p T, shadowing-type differences start to show up

33 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 33 Comparing the two kinds of descriptions

34 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 34 Expected pseudorapidity asymmetry at the LHC When going to LHC: HIJING shadowing very strong much larger is used 2

35 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 35 Expected nuclear modification factor at the LHC central rapidity HKN without k T possible effects of jet quenching EMC effect

36 High p_T at LHC Tokaj, March 17, 2008 36 Conclusions In the framework of a pQCD-based model, two options to describe spectra in d+Au both at y=0 and y≠0: (tentative) EITHER use EKS (or FGS or HKN) shadowing forward R CP not well reproduced OR use HIJING-type shadowing + multiscattering pseudorapidity asymmetry not reproduced unless k T broadening given rapidity dependence working on it LHC will hopefully prefer one over the other at sufficiently high rapidity and transverse momentum NEED SEPARATED FORWARD/BACKWARD DATA FOR THIS KIND OF ANALYSIS!
