Systematic measurements of light vector mesons in RHIC-PHENIX Yoshihide Nakamiya Hiroshima University, Japan for the PHENIX collaboration Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India ~ Contents ~ Topics in this talk PHENIX experiment Results Summary

Topics in this talk <Topic 1> Mass modification of light vector mesons - as a probe of the chiral phase transition - in the low pT region Question 1 : Have we observed changes in line shape and/or yield? Mass Line Shape Possible modification of line shape of the invariant mass distribution for f/w/r is expected to be observed.    ->Effects are small and can’t be detected with current statistics and signal to background ratio. Yield difference between fe+e- and f K+K- Branching ratio between e+e- and K+K- may be sensitive to mass modification, since Mphi is approximately 2  MK. -> Compare yields of fe+e- and f K+K- e+e- in Au+Au √sNN=200 GeV ω f

Topics in this talk (Cont’d) <Topic 2 > Particle yield suppression of light vector mesons in medium - as a probe of medium effects - at relatively high pT Systematic measurements give information about properties of the medium: pT/mT spectra of f and w in several decay channels Nuclear modification factors (RAA and RdA) as functions of pT We are trying to answer the following questions: Question 1 : Does the particle yield suppression depend on mass or on quark number ? -> Nuclear modification factor RAA of the f meson is compared to proton results. Question 2 : Does RAA of mesons have a mass or flavor dependence? ->RAA of several mesons are compared to each other. (p, h, w, f, …) <Baseline> Results of p+p and d+Au are also shown. All data shown in this talk are taken at sNN = 200 GeV.

Results for p+p and d+Au as baseline measurement

The three independent kaon analyses are consistent with each other.

d+Au p+p Measurements of w in wide pT range w pT spectra of w are measured for several decay modes in d+Au and p+p. wp0g dAu MB (PRC75 151902) wp0p+p- dAu MB(PRC75 151902) w e+e- pp MB (PHENIX preliminary) wp0g pp MB (PRC75 151902) wp0p+p- pp MB(PRC75 151902) wp0g pp ERT (PHENIX preliminary) wp0p+p- pp ERT (PHENIX preliminary) w d+Au p+p Spectra show good agreement among several decay channels.

Chiral symmetry restoration Topic 1 Chiral symmetry restoration

Yield comparison between fe+e- and f K+K- Question 1’: Have we observed changes of yield between e+e- and K+K- ? Comparison of integrated yield is not enough, because mass modification effects depend on the pT region. Low pT mesons tend to decay inside the hot/dense matter f f Low pT High pT In addition, To determine the integrated yield, an extrapolation to lower pT is needed. There is a large uncertainty in the calculation. Thus, pT-dependent information is essential for comparison. Now, we should ask Have we observed changes of spectra between e+e- and K+K- ?

Au+Au Spectra comparison between fe+e- and f K+K- f e+e- AuAu MB f e+e- 20-40% x 10-3 f e+e- 40-92% x 10-1 f K+K- AuAu MB (no PID) f K+K- AuAu MB (double PID) f K+K- AuAu MB (PRC72 014903) f K+K- 20-40% x 10-3 (double PID) f K+K- 40-92% x 10-1 (double PID) f K+K- 40-92% x 10-1 (PRC72 014903) M.B. 40-92% 20-40% Errors are too large to make any clear statement about the comparison of spectra for f  e+e- and f  K+K-.

Nuclear modification factors Topic 2 Nuclear modification factors

Au+Au fK+K- in Au+Au is also extended to higher mT   No ID   Single ID   Double ID 0-10% 60-90% p+p M.B. f candidates Double ID analysis no ID analysis K+ K- h+ h- fK+K- measurement has been extended to higher mT using no kaon ID method. mT region is extended to ~ 5 GeV. The two independent hadron decay analyses are consistent with each other in Au+Au.

Is RAA suppression carried by mass or quark number? Question 1 : Is particle yield suppression carried by mass or quark number ? RAA of proton (mp=938 MeV/c2) Comparison between f and p: RAA of f meson (mf=1019 MeV/c2) 60-93% MinBias 0-10% RAA of f in central collisions is lower than in peripheral at high pT. RAA of protons is nearly independent of centrality. f RAA shows a different trend as compared to the proton. Difference of RAA between f and proton suggests that energy loss occurs at the partonic level.

w mesons in Au+Au Background estimate is improved in ωπ0γ analysis pT spectra of w are measured for several centralities and at high pT. [GeV/c2] Magenda = Red + Green + Blue 3 BG sources Invariant mass reconstructed by 3g PHENIX preliminary w  e+e-, AuAu MB x 102 w  p0g, AuAu MB x 102 w  p0g, AuAu 0-20 % x 104  p0g, AuAu 20-60% x 10 w  p0g, AuAu 60-92% 0-20% M.B. Details are in M.Ouchida’s poster 20-60% Background and shape are carefully estimated. 60-92% Measurement of w mesons up to 10 GeV/c is made.

Mass dependence of RAA between mesons Question 2 : Does RAA of mesons have a mass or a flavor dependence? f w f meson has a different RAA for pT < 5 GeV/c.

Summary <Topic 1> Mass modification of light vector mesons - as a probe of chiral phase transition - in low pT region Question 1 : Have we observed changes of line shape, yield, and/or spectra? Answer 1 : We are still trying to quantify the difference. Improvement of statistics and signal to background ratio in the next run will improve existing measurements. <Topic 2 > Particle yield suppression of light vector mesons in medium - as a probe of medium effect - at relatively high pT Question 1 : Is particle yield suppression carried by mass or quark number ? Answer 1 : Difference between RAA of f meson vs proton suggests that energy loss occurs at the partonic level . Question 2 : Does RAA of mesons have a mass or flavor dependence ? Answer 2 : f meson has a different RAA compared to other mesons (p, h).
