Kaon Production in Central Au+Au Collisions at 200 and 63 GeV Djamel Ouerdane Niels Bohr Institute for the BRAHMS Collaboration Strange Quark Matter 2004 Cape Town, September BRAHMS

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Outline of the Talk The BRAHMS experiment p T Spectra : slope systematic Rapidity distributions : K vs  Kaon and  B Conclusion

The BRAHMS Detector MRS FFS BFS

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Particle Identification TIME-OF-FLIGHT Particle Separation: p max ( 2  cut)= TOFWTOF1 TOF2  / K 2  cut K / p 2 GeV/c 3 GeV/c 4.5 GeV/c 3.5 GeV/c 5.5 GeV/c 7.5 GeV/c RICH: Cherenkov light focused on spherical mirror  ring on image plane Ring radius vs momentum gives PID  / K separation 20 GeV/c Proton ID up to 35 GeV/c CHERENKOV (2 settings)

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep GeV invariant differential yields 62.4 GeV invariant differential yields By combining all data sets and averaging over the number of collisions, we get the final invariant yields over a broad range of phase-space Kaon Spectra Spectra : projection of rapidity intervals to p T axis

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Kaon Spectra Fit: exponential Top 5% central collisions AuAu 63 GeV AuAu 200 GeV

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Kaon Slopes Top 5% central collisions

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Integrated 200 GeV (Gaussian fit) N(K + ) ~ 290 N(K  ) ~ 240 Rapidity Densities

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Rapidity Densities Width after Gaussian fit: AGS ~ no dependence SPS-RHIC ~ strong dependence : longitudinal flow important

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Y < 1 : consistent with Hadron Gas Stat. Model K + /  + : 15.6  0.1 % (stat) K  /   : 14.7  0.1 % (stat) [Phys. Lett. B 518 (2001) 41] Divergence at higher y : Associated K + production No single source with unique T and  B Kaons vs Pions RAPIDITY DEPENDENCE

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep At y = 0, ratios converge to ~ 15 % ENERGY DEPENDENCE Why max AGS-SPS ? Net-Kaon distribution evolves like net-proton Over the full phase space: K + /  + = 16.6  1.5 % (syst) K  /   = 13.7  2.0 % (syst) Kaons vs Pions

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep ENERGY DEPENDENCE Kaons vs  B BRAHMS, PRL90 (2003) T~constant,  B varies with y Net-kaon and net-proton distributions at 3 different beam energies T~ constant,  B drives ratios in y or beam energy (?)

D. Ouerdane, Strange Quark Matter 2004, Cape Town, Sep Summary & Conclusions Transverse momentum spectra of kaons measured in rapidity range -0.1 < y K < 3.4 for central Au+Au collisions at 200 and 63 GeV SLOPES: exponential in m T gives good description slopes at 200 GeV > 63 GeV, small step YIELDS: N(+) ~ N(-) at mid-rapidity (47 and 44) but N(+) > N(-) at y > 2 due to associated K + production K /  converge to ~ 15% at y ~ 0 (plateau y < 1) same within systematic errors for full phase-space ratios possible indication of strangeness equilibration at 200 GeV At 63 GeV, y = 0, ratios at “expected” values K vs  B  B seems to drive the kaon ratio in rapidity and energy with T~ constant, preliminary 63 GeV data consistent with this
