Measurement of Inclusive Photon in Au+Au collisions by Conversion Method at RHIC-PHENIX T. Hachiya, Hiroshima Univ., for the PHENIX collaboration

q g γ q γ e+ e- Converter Au Thermal Photon excess will appear in less than 3GeV/c in some predictions. We measure photon through their conversion into e+e- pairs Photon is not affected by strong interaction in final stage of collision We can measure hot and dense matter directly. The characteristics of QGP (Temperature, Energy Density) can be measured Photon as a signal from QGP Thermal Photon is one of important observable to probe early stage of collision --- QGP

PHENIX Experiment Purpose : Search for the signals from QGP produced √s NN =200GeV, Au+Au collisions Coverage: Central Arm <  <  < |  | < 120  Trigger Beam Beam Counter Zero Degree Calorimeter Collision vertex Beam Beam Counter

γ/π ratio in Data and Simulation : Run 1 Status Work in Progress γ/π is measured in Run 1 data. Systematic Error in data is roughly 30% ( black band ) γ/π from Data is not inconsistent with expected γ/π ratio within Systematic & Statistical Error. Sys. err band Shown at Hawaii meeting. We have much larger statistics in Run 2.

Photon Converter in Run 2 Photon Converter : Brass shim (Zn:30 Cu:70%, ) 600mm*2π*0.254 mm Rad. length : 1.7 % Photon Converter Benefit of the converter We can measure the conversion pairs from the converter. We can measure the single electron from conversion We can know the efficiency of electron completely It is a powerful tool By using with and without the converter Known value Calculated by MC Special runs with a photon converter.

Electron Identification Electron signals are clearly measured. # of hit PMT Net signal BG Real # of hit PMT RICH Cut : #of hit PMT >=3 E/p ratio All charged track BG Net signal Real E/p cut: E/p>0.8 RICH – our primary eID device Number of Hit PMT per electron track  2 of Ring shape E/p matching – reject hadron Background E : Energy measured by the EMCal p : Momentum measured by the Dch. The peak at E/p=1 is electron signal E/p

Invariant Mass Spectrum of e+e- pairs Event selection: |Z|< 35cm Min. bias event sample Electron ID: N0>2,  Red : Real Black : Combinatorial BG Due to our tracking algorithm, conversion pairs at a large radius from the vertex make the peak (at 75MeV/c 2 ) in mass distribution Conversion at MVD outer shell Dalitz and Conversion near beam pipe Combinatorial BG Min. Bias Au+Au √s NN =200GeV

Method 1: Measurement of e+ e- pairs Combinatorial BG is subtracted Clear peaks are shown at 75MeV 6 times higher --- consistent with Rad. length Invariant mass Conv. W/O Conv. [GeV/c 2 ] Mass region in 60MeV<Mee<85MeV is used. --- e+e- pairs coming from the conversion Need to correct the tracking efficiency, etc. Un-corrected P t spectra of e+e- pairs pair Pt[GeV/c] Conv.W/O Conv. Pair from the converter  pair Pt[GeV/c]

Method 2: Measurement of e+(e-) from the conversion We can also measure inclusive electron including charm decay. In Run 1, we measured prompt electrons and derived charm cross section. Link : nucl-ex/ We can measure a electrons from purely photon conversion.  Photons can be measured. Conv.W/O conv. P t [GeV/c]  = Un-corrected P t Spectra of electron e+,e- from the converter P t [GeV/c]

Statistics in Run 2 In this analysis: 25% of the data with the converter. 3% of the data without the converter. Comparison of statistics (min. bias) Run 1 : 1.3M Run 2 Converter : 5M W/O converter : 87M Total min. bias events : 92M LVL2 triggered events : 80M (min. bias equivalent) Acceptance is 4 times larger than Run 1 70 x 4 times larger statistics

Summary We have started the photon conversion analysis in Au+Au collisions at  s NN =200GeV. Large statistics (170M events) is obtained in Run 2. Comparison of the data with and without the converter is useful for photon measurement. (Un-corrected) Pt spectra of conversion pairs and single electron from photon conversion are measured. Next Step: Determine the efficiency correction factor to measure invariant yield of inclusive photon.

Shift of Invariant Mass R e+ e- P e- P e+ Case 1 : conversion at R!=0 Reconstructed Track e- Pe+Pe+ P e- e+ Collision vertex Case 2: e+e- pair from collision vertex φ Our tracking algorithm require position of collision vertex. For photon conversion at R!=0, opening angle of e+e- pair is reconstructed effectively large. It is affected to Mee position

Comparison Data with expected photon from hadron decay To evaluate photon yield, Photon/Pion ratio from data is compared with expected Photon/Pion from hadron decay. Both of Photon and Pion yield are measured at PHENIX. Expected photon yield from conventional photon source (neutral mesons decay) π 0, η, η’, ω are taken into account. Pt slope of π 0 is obtained by fit to the average of PHENIX charged π data with power low function Pt slopes of other hadrons are obtained by mT scaling of π η/π 0 =0.55, η’/π 0 =0.25, ω/π 0 =1.0 at High Pt from p+p data
