J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 2 Outline  Motivation  Electron identification  Background subtraction  Di-electron production in Au + Au collisions comparison with theoretical calculations acceptance investigation  Transverse mass spectra  Summary and outlook

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari Dielectron – A Penetrating Probe of the Medium 3 Advantages: EM probe / penetrating – not suffer strong interactions (p T, M) – additional mass dimension, sensitive to different dynamics Challenges: Production rate is rare, over many background sources integral over time, sensitive to system evolution Motivation(1)

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 4 Motivation(2)  Low mass region (LMR): ✓ in-medium modifications of vector mesons ✓ chiral symmetry restoration  Intermediate mass region (IMR): ✓ thermal radiation expected to have significant contribution ✓ dominated by charm in p+p, but the contribution is expected to be modified in Au+Au  High mass region (HMR):  ✓ heavy quarkonia  ✓ Drell-Yan contribution LMR IMRHMR STAR Preliminary Provide two dimensions ( mass vs p T ) mapping to the collisions dynamics

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 5 Different slope in m T spectra in low and intermediate mass at SPS energy  hint of partonic thermal dileptons What about at RHIC energy? Motivation(3)  Experimental observables - production cross section vs (mass, p T ) - elliptic flow NA60, PRL 100, (2008) STAR, NPA 757,102 (2005) PHENIX, PRL 98, (2007) RHIC Au + Au 200 GeV / SPS In + In 17.2 GeV

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 6 STAR detector  Time Projection Chamber (0< ϕ <2π, |η|<1 ) Tracking – momentum Ionization energy loss – dE/dx (particle identification)  Time Of Flight detector ( 0< ϕ <2π, |η|<0.9) Timing resolution <100ps - significant improvement for PID

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 7 Electron Identification  Clean electron PID in p+p and Au+Au collisions with a combination of TPC dE/dx and TOF velocity ✓ electron purity ~99% in p +p collision, ~97% in Au + Au MinBias collision. ✓ hadron contamination contribution to the correlated background is small, and has been included in the systematic uncertainties (Au +Au). TOF velocity cut to remove slow hadrons

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 8 Background Reconstruction  Conversion electrons removed from pair reconstruction  Background a. Low mass region Like Sign – acceptance corrected Cross pair and Jet contribution b. Mass>0.75GeV/c 2 - Mixed Event - Like Sign  Systematic errors - acceptance uncertainty < 0.1 % - normalization uncertainty < 0.1% STAR Preliminary Background: combinatorial + correlated background Signal: particle decay + QGP/medium pair prod.

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 9 Signal/Background STAR Preliminary  Signal/background ratio: mass(ee) ~ 0.5 GeV/c 2 ~ 1:10 for p + p collisions ~ 1:200 for Au + Au minbias collisions ~ 1:250 for Au + Au central collisions

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 10 Di-electron production in Au + Au collisions  Data show a hint of enhancement at LMR compared to the hadron cocktails w/o ρ. - ρ contribution not included in the cocktail - charm = PYTHIA*N bin (0.96 mb) real contribution in Au+Au is an open question - π 0( π ±), ϕ from STAR - η, ω J/ψ from PHENIX - Green box: syst. errors on data - Yellow band: syst. errors on cocktail ~ 270M Au+Au MinBias events

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 11 ~ 150M Au+Au Central (0-10%)  Clearer LMR enhancement in central collisions compared to minbias collisions - ρ contribution not included in the cocktail - charm = PYTHIA*N bin (0.96mb) overpredicts the data at IMR indicating charm modifications in central Au +Au collisions Di-electron production in Au + Au collisions

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari 13 Transverse mass spectra SPS data: charm/DY subtracted - PRL 100, (2008) STAR data: inclusive di-electron, statistical error only A + A: Minbias collisions  p + p result consistent with PYTHIA charm  m T slope parameter in Au+Au is higher than that in p + p hint of thermal di-lepton production and/or charm modification  Inclusive di-lepton slope in Au+Au at RHIC is also higher than that (charm/DY subtracted) from SPS RHIC Au + Au 200 GeV / SPS In + In 17.2 GeV

J. Zhao Hard Probe 2012, Cagliari  Low mass region: - Enhancement in Au + Au central collisions compared to the cocktail consistent with theoretical calculation with vector meson in-medium modification  Intermediate mass region: - Inclusive di-electron m T slope parameter is higher in Au + Au compared to p + p modification of charm and/or thermal radiation contribution ? - Need more precise measurement to constrain charm and QGP thermal radiation contributions Outlook: - in the future, STAR Heavy Flavor Tracker and Muon Telescope Detector, charm contribution!
