March 27, 2003University of Buffalo Colloquium55 Jet-quenching also gives break in flow vs. p T

March 27, 2003University of Buffalo Colloquium56 Initial state vs. final state effects Jet-quenching is a final state effect - “Weisaker- Williams” color field of parton interacting with colored medium. Energy loss is medium-size dependent (radiated wavelengths less than source size) Initial state effect - saturation models color glass condensate ( recent review: Iancu, Leonidov, McLerran, hep-ph/ ) can also qualitatively explain some features of the data Current d-Au run will help untangle this mess!

March 27, 2003University of Buffalo Colloquium57 Showed you too much - I apologize Showed you too little - I apologize Status of the search for the QGP at RHIC? RHIC/experiments running very well Up till now … characterization and model tuning

March 27, 2003University of Buffalo Colloquium58 ã Hot, dense, opaque medium is formed ã Energy density above lattice predictions for deconfined state ã Local thermal equilibrium achieved ã Full 3-d structure away from mid-rapidity not yet understood ã Interesting signals being pursued … jet-quenching? Probably standing on the precipice of a claim/discovery Remains to be seen if systematic study and pursuit of the surprises leads to anything beyond the duck! Future = statistics (J/  + more), vary species/energies, LHC Is it a duck?
