4/43 Selected Results at RHIC A.Jet suppression in central Au + Au collisions ① Suppression apparently flat for pt up to 10 GeV/c ② Absence of suppression in d+Au B. Strong elliptic flow ① Scaling of v2 with eccentricity shows that a high degree of collectivity built up at a very early stage of collision – Evidence for early thermalization ② Data described by ideal hydrodynamic models  fluid description of matter applies.

5/43 Particle Spectra Evolution “Peripheral” “Central” K. Adcox et al, Phys Lett B561 (2003) 82-92

6/43 We define the nuclear modification factor as: R AA is what we get divided by what we expect. By definition, processes that scale with the number of underlying nucleon-nucleon collisions (aka N binary ) will produce R AA =1. R AA is well below 1 for both charged hadrons and neutral pions. nucl-ex/ S.S. Adler et al. Au+Au->  0 +X Nuclear Modification Factor: R AA PRL 91 (2003) Factor 5

7/43 Initial State effects ruled out ! Au + Au d + Au Control Preliminary DataFinal Data PHENIX Preliminary Initial State Effects Only Initial + Final State Effects Dramatically different and opposite centrality evolution of Au+Au experiment from d+Au control. Jet Suppression is clearly a final state effect.

8/43 Suppression is very strong (R AA =0.2!) and flat up to 20 GeV/c Energy loss of partons in dense matter  A medium effect predicted in QCD ( Energy loss by colored parton in medium composed of unscreened color charges by gluon bremsstrahlung : LPM radiation ) Gyulassy, Wang, Vitev, Baier, Wiedemann… See nucl-th/ for a review. Baier, Dokshitzer, Mueller, Peigne, Shiff, NPB483, 291(1997), PLB345, 277(1995), Baier hep-ph/ The matter is extremely opaque

10/43 Collective Flow Identified charged hadron v2 indicates  Early thermalization  Constituent quark scaling  Partonic collectivity Even Φ flows, within the errors consistent with other hadrons

11/43  Collective Flow and Jet Quenching of light partons strongly suggest that QGP is discovered. One of the central questions in high energy heavy ion physics is whether a quark-gluon Plasma (QGP) has been discovered at RHIC. (M.Gyulassy and L. McLerran, nucl-th/ , M.Gyulassy, nucl-th/ ) Summary of RHIC results with light quarks

12/43  Collective Flow and Jet Quenching of light partons strongly suggest that QGP is discovered.  Further detailed tests of jet tomography using heavy quarks could be decisive as a complementary test of the theory.  Open charm suppression, which can now be measured at RHIC by comparing pt distributions of D-mesons in d-Au and Au-Au collisions, is a novel probe of QGP dynamics.  J/psi suppression or enhancement mechanism should be nailed down with high statistical and systematical precision. One of the central questions in high energy heavy ion physics is whether a quark-gluon Plasma (QGP) has been discovered at RHIC. (M.Gyulassy and L. McLerran, nucl-th/ , M.Gyulassy, nucl-th/ ) Extension from light quarks to Heavy Quarks

13/43  Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) - produced early in the collision. Live long enough to sample the plasma  Intrinsic large mass scale allows precise calculations What can we look in order to find out the characteristics or properties of the medium(QGP)  Yields of charm and beauty pairs compared to first principle lattice simulations determine the energy density and temperature  J/Ψ suppression Comparison between light and heavy quark suppression distinguishes between theoretical models of energy loss in the QGP  Charm vs Light quark energy loss ( Jet-Quenching ) Mass dependence of diffusion of heavy quarks determines plasma properties, e.g. viscosity and conductivity  Charm flow B.

24/43 Now Armesto et al. also include beauty and can find consistent results with R AA = 0.4 Not All Theorists Agree

25/43 In a calculation by Teaney and Moore (hep-ph/ ), they calculate the expected elliptic flow (v2) and transverse momentum modifications for different charm quark diffusion coefficients(free parameter). The two effects go hand in hand. Charm suppression and Flow

26/43 "Direct Comparison is Certainly Misguided..." PHENIX Preliminary PHENIX Data Results Speak for Themselves

27/43 A.Different predictions on J/Ψ behaviour when QGP is formed ① Color screening will lead to suppression of charmonium production in heavy ion collisions (T. Matsui, H. Satz, Phys. Lett. B178(1986)416). ② Lattice QCD results show that the confining potential between heavy quarks is screened at high temperature. This screening should suppress bound states such as J/Ψ. However, recent lattice results indicate that the J/Ψ spectral functions only show modest modification near the critical temperature, and thus may not be suppressed until higher T. ③ But after taken the recombination into account, much less suppression or even enhancement is predicted A. Andronic, P.B. Munzinger et al., nucl-th/ L. Grandchamp, R. Rapp, hep-ph/ R.L. Thews et al., Phys. Rev. c63(2001) Heavy Quarkonia B.Disentangle Normal nuclear effects Gluon shadowing, Nuclear Absorption Initial state energy loss, Cronin effect.

28/43 NA50 Conclusions “A clear onset of the anomaly is observed. It excludes models based on hadronic scenarios since only smooth behavior with monotonic derivatives can be inferred from such calculations” Phys. Lett. B 450, 456 (1999). Model assuming: charm production scales as DY color octet c-c is absorbed by nucleons with a  = 6.2 mb no absorption with comovers 

29/43 Normal Nuclear + Shadowing Forward rapidity Theory Vogt: nucl-th/ Model of cold nuclear matter effects in agreement with dAu Underpredicts suppression in AuAu and CuCu

30/43 Looks Like CERN Suppression? Suppression level is similar between the two experiments, but 1) the collision energy is 10 times higher (200GeV wrt 17GeV) 2) the rapidity window for NA50 is |y|  [0,1] Comparison with NA50 data presented wrt Npart and normalized to NA50 p+p point.

31/43 Too Much Suppression in Theory! Models that were successful in describing SPS data fail to describe data at RHIC  too much suppression

32/43 Regeneration Implementing regeneration: much better agreement with the data At RHIC, Recombination compensates stronger QGP screening? But still there are uncertainties in their calculations Uncertainty is large !

33/43 Suppression for most central collisions is similar to NA50 Energy density and gluon density at RHIC should be much higher (2-3 times, 200GeV vs 17GeV)? At RHIC: Recombination compensates stronger QGP screening? PHENIX J/  centrality dependence: 1)Models with only nuclear absorption don’t quite have enough suppression 2) Models without recombination have too much suppression 3) Models with recombination are in reasonable agreement with the data J/Ψ Summary

34/43 Needed Input of Total Charm Input from both STAR and PHENIX is needed.

35/43 More in the Future... Copper-Copper 200 GeV J/  |y| = Reduce systematic errors and finalize CuCu and AuAu data. Improved statistics for baseline Run-5 Proton-Proton and future p-A or d-A Working on J/  v 2, but statistically very challenging with Run-4 and Run-5 data sets  BUP06 Au-Au running !!! Not approved!!! Shush!!!

36/43 Summary A wealth of new PHENIX data on heavy quarks and heavy quarkonia. Charm is a very optimal probe of thermalization and properties of the medium, but the price for this may well be the loss of a probe via quarkonia for deconfinement.

37/43 The precision Measurements  Detector upgrade  Precise measurement of Displaced vertex  Onium measurements  Trigger  RHIC II Luminosity

38/43 Silicon Vertex Detector Four barrel layers  Two ALICE pixel bus layers  Two strip-pixel layers Four end-cap pixel layers Displaced vertex (σ ~50  m) Full azimuthal inner tracking |η| < ~2.4  Improve acceptance for  -jet correlations, D  K  Connect to tracks in central and muon arms  Tag heavy flavor decays  c,b  e,   B  J/   Improve onium resolution  Eliminate decay hadrons  Reduce high-p T background

39/43 Nose Cone Calorimeter Replace central arm magnet nosecones (Cu) w/ tungsten- silicon calorimeters Coverage at forward/backward rapidity: 0.9 < |η| < 3.5   /  0 separation for p T < 30 GeV/c  Jet identification  identification gives good acceptance for  c  J/  + 

40/43 Muon Trigger Upgrade Three layers of RPCs with 2D (θ,φ) pad readout Provides online momentum measurement to improve Level-1 trigger rejection  Single-particle  p T cut  W spin-measurements in pp  Two-particle  M inv cut  onium measurements in AA  Necessary to take complete advantage of luminosity upgrades Provides improved high-multiplicity background rejection

41/43 RHIC II Luminosity – CAD Guidance x 35 increase for pp x 10 increase for CuCu x 15 increase for dAu x 15 increase for AuAu

42/43 RHIC II Yields – ADF, MJL Guidance  Assume CAD “Maximum Average” Luminosity Projection, 12 week runs, known PHENIX uptime (60%) to get Live Delivered Luminosity.  Use measured values when possible to calculate pp σ’s, B.R.’s.  Assume nuclear scaling - (AB) , w/  =1 for ,  =0.92 for others.  Use stated RF efficiency, diamond size to get vertex cut efficiency.  Use measured PHENIX performance, assume PHENIX SiVTX, Nosecone Calorimeter, Muon Trigger upgrades to get acceptances, efficiencies.

43/43 Onium Yields  Precision measurements of the J/   Exploratory measurements of the other onium states.  Steep increase at √s = 500 GeV illustrates the significant difficulties for measurements at lower energies.

44/43 Expected D  K  statistical significance (S/√B) for different DCA cuts (p T > 2 GeV/c, 200M AuAu min. bias. events) Synergistic Benefits of Detector/Luminosity Upgrades for Open Heavy Flavor Measurement Detector upgrades assist by determining decay vertex.  Allows direct measurement of charm via D  K   Reduces backgrounds at low-p T  Allows statistical separation of c/b at high-p T  Allows direct elimination of hadron decay muons. Luminosity upgrades extend p T reach and allow reduction of systematic errors.  Additional special runs (e.g., w/ different converter thicknesses and locations, different field configurations, etc.)  Finer binning of DCA dependence for c/b separation.  Better determination of punchthrough absorption.

Modifications of these PDF’s in nuclei will affect the initial production rate of charm-anticharm quark pairs. Production of direct J/  is suppressed by the need for an additional radiated gluon to conserve quantum numbers, so another mechanism is needed. Hadronic or pre-hadronic interactions can suppress J/  yields.

64/43 Nuclear Parton Distribution Functions x Saturation? shadowing enhancement EMC effect Fermi Effect At low x ~ 10 -2, a suppression of partons is observed in the nuclear wavefunction (shadowing). This suppressing any hard process coupling to those partons relative to point-like scaling (  = 1). At high x ~ 10 -1, an enhancement (anti-shadowing) may enhance hard processes. Color Glass Condensate or Saturation Physics gives a universal QCD explanation for low x shadowing.

65/43 Evolution of Modified PDFs As one probes a proton or nucleus at higher momentum transfer (shorter wavelength), there is an enormous growth of low x gluons. Thus we might expect that saturation or shadowing effects will play a larger role in higher energy collisions sensitive to a similar range of x.

66/43 Initial Parton Energy Loss If the incoming hadron de-hadronizes as it interacts in the nucleus, an individual high-x parton starts to radiate (losing energy). xx At lower energies (SPS, FNAL fixed target) where one is near J/  production threshold, a small energy loss can result in a strong suppression of production.

Lett. 86, 4487 (2001) hep=ex/ Must carefully separate nuclear shadowing effects and energy loss effects both of which lead to suppression of Drell-Yan pairs.

68/43 Initial Parton Multiple-Scattering xx Initial state multiple-scattering of the parton leads to an enhancement in the p T of the final J/  product. This enhancement is often referred to as the “Cronin Effect.” Despite the phenomenological success of incorporating this multiple scattering, there are still open questions about this mechanism. Also, multiple scattering inherently leads to radiation.

69/43 Re-Interactions After production of the charm-anticharm pair, it may re-interact during its traversal of the remaining nuclear material. These re-interactions may be of a pre- cursor to the J/  (color octet cc-g state) or of the physical J/  itself. 1 In heavy ion reactions, the quarkonia state may be further suppressed due to color screening in medium. 2 1 Arleo, Gossiaux, Gousset, Aichelin, hep-ph/ Matsui, Satz, Phys.
