Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)  Utilized to strong interactions Standard model:  Quarks and Gluons Color charge (Red, Blue, and Green) Six flavors (up, down, charm, strange, top, bottom) SU(3) gauge group has 8 gauge bosons (gluon)  QCD Lagrangian F=gluon field tensor Ψ=Quark field D=covariant derivative  Pertubative QCD Running coupling:  Q=momentum transfer asymptotic freedom  Length scale converges Quark-Gluon Plasma

QCD Matter (Quark Matter)  Phase Diagram

QCD Matter (cont.)  Experimental Heavy-Ion Collisions (CERN, BNL, etc.)  Lorentz-contracted Nuclei  Hard Parton collisions/Jet Interactions  Parton Cascade/QGP  Hadron Phase

Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP)  Cosmic “soup” of almost-free quarks and gluons  Lattice-Gauge Theory Used at low baryon densities & high temperatures Predicts QGP transition at

QGP (Experimental)  Collisions of large nuclei Au+Au, BNL & CERN =200 GeV, 5.5 TeV respectively  “Fireball”  Main Observations EM observables: photon(2-4 GeV) and dilepton enhancement Strangeness: strangeness enhancement Kinetic observable: elliptic flow Hard probes: jet quenching, J/ψ suppression Correlation: HBT Interferometry, fluctuations

Theoretical Models  Thermal Yield of various particles, ratios  Hydrodynamic Behavior of low particles, elliptic flow  Transport Treat chemical/thermal freeze-out dynamically HBT Interferometry of hadrons

A Multiphase Transport model (AMPT)  Describes collisions ranging from p+A to A+A systems  RHIC =200 GeV LHC (future) =5.5 TeV  HIJING (Heavy Ion Jet Interaction Generator) Initial conditions  ZPC (Zhang’s Parton Cascade)  Lund string fragmentation/Quark coalescence  ART (A Relativistic Transport)

AMPT (cont.) Default model (v1.11)String melting (v2.11)

Forward-Backward Multiplicity Correlations using AMPT  Experimental collisions produce clusters of correlating partons  Au+Au collisions = 200 GeV 0-20% central  Event-wise observable (comparison)  Measure the variance

Preliminary Data Nucl-ex/

Rapidity Distributions

Variance

Variance (cont.)

Analysis  Evolution of hadrons in collisions is of much importance for fluctuations (the results from HIJING are much higher than from the AMPT model)  Partonic cascade and hadronic evolution have similar effects on fluctuations  The difference in magnitude between AMPT calculations and experimental data indicates that there may exist clusters of correlated particles in heavy ion collisions (clusters aren’t made in AMPT) L.
