1 Strangeness production in STAR Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration

2 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 2/28 Motivation In A+A: Strangeness production is expected to be enhanced !!! In p+p, and peripheral Strangeness production may be limited due to canonical suppression. In this talk, we will discuss this problem by looking at: New Cu+Cu data vs Au+Au data. System size dependence. Chemical Equilibrium: Is strangeness equilibrated? What are the equilibrium properties? Does canonical approach describes data better?

3 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 3/28 The STAR experiment Excellent detector reconstructing strange baryons. Large acceptance at mid-rapidity. Perfect for reconstructing strange particles through topology decay: Λ, Ξ, Ω. Analysis done by Xiaobin Wang

4 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 4/28 Data Analysis: Event centrality Au+AuCu+Cu CentN part N Bin CentN part N Bin 0-5351.0 ± 3.01039 ± 79 5-10293 ± 7.810 ± 58 10-20231 ± 3.2574 ± 42 20-40139 ± 5.278 ± 300-1098.4 ± 1.0185.7 ±5.9 40-6059.0 ± 5.82 ± 12 10-2074.8 ± 2.5126.7 ±6.7 20-3054.4 ± 2.881.5 ± 6.0 60-8019.0 ± 3.519 ± 5 30-4038.5 ± 2.551.0 ± 4.8 40-6021.9 ± 2.624.3 ± 3.9 Event centrality determined by charged particle multiplicity. Collision geometrical parameters are inferred using Glauber Model.

5 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 5/28 Data analysis: Total Yield Efficiency & acceptance and Feed-down correction. Total yield calculated from fit: Boltzmann, Exponential or Levi function. Extrapolated area is ~25% for Λ, 30% for Ξ and 35% for Ω. New 2007 data with STAR inner tracker (SVT+SSD) should reduce extrapolated area and improve systematic error. Plot made by G. Magela

6 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 6/28 STAR data description for strange particles: Mainly, mid-rapidity yields (-1.0 <y <1.0) Pion yields are corrected for weak decay feed-down contributions. In papers, unless explicitly noted, Protons and Anti-protons are not corrected for weak decay feed- down corrections. This correction is estimated to be at maximum of 30%. Λ are corrected for Ξ feed-down. Ξ feed-down from Ω is negligible. BR 8.6 %

7 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 7/28 CuCu200 & AuAu200 Yields: Λ´s, Ξ´s and Ω´s Both Au+Au and Cu+Cu data show particle yields increase with system size. We use the number of collision participants for geometrical scaling. Cu+Cu strange baryons show higher yield relative to equivalent AuAu centrality. Red symbols are for Au+Au 200GeV Black symbols are for Cu+Cu 200 GeV Solid symbols are for the particles Open symbols are for anti-particles.

8 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 8/28 New Cu+Cu 62 GeV: Very Preliminary data !!! -- Analysis done by G.Magela & M. Munhoz k0Sk0S -- -++-++ Cu+Cu 62 GeV data seems to show same enhancement relative to Au+Au as seen in 200 GeV.

9 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 9/28 The new STAR data in the systematic STAR preliminary New Cu+Cu data seems to follow systematic. Ratio seems to be the same, independent of the system size.

10 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 10/28 Strangeness Enhancement: SPS Enhancement of strangeness production per participants in AA collisions, relative to pp. Enhancement observed already in the most peripheral bin. Relative enhancement hierarchy with number of strange quarks, as expected in a GC Thermal model scenario. Relative enhancement of strange baryons higher than anti-baryons. Expected due to non-zero net baryon number. F.Antinori et al. (NA57 Collab.) Jorn. Phys. G, 32 (2006) 427-441

11 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 11/28 Strangeness Enhancement: SPS and RHIC RHIC Au+Au data also shows clear hyperons enhancement relative to pp. Strangeness enhancement show dependence with volume (N part ) which disagrees with GC thermal production. Relative enhancement seems to be slightly lower than in SPS. F.Antinori et al. (NA57 Collab.) Jorn. Phys. G, 32 (2006) 427-441

12 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 12/28 Strangeness Enhancement: AuAu and CuCu CuCu analysis from several people in STAR, in special A. Timmins, X. Wang, M. Munhoz ref. QM2008 proceedings ref. SQM2007 proceedings Still see clear hyperon enhancement in Cu+Cu data. For , , and Ω, Cu+Cu relative enhancement seems to be higher than in Au+Au. AuAu data published in nucl-ex/0705.2511

13 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 13/28 How about the protons ? Protons also show relative enhancement in AuAu and CuCu relative to pp. Does NOT show higher relative yields in CuCu compared to AuAu. Flat with N part. Can this be due to feed- down from Lambdas?

14 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 14/28 Strangeness Enhancement:   s J.H. Chen, QM2008 proceedings, to be published.  also show relative enhancement in AuAu and CuCu relative to pp. But, show no relative enhancement of CuCu over AuAu as seen in the Λ, Ξ, and Ω. Could this be related to the fact that  not subject to canonical suppression?

15 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 15/28 Energy dependence of Relative strangeness enhancement SPS RHIC Enhancement of particles seems to reduce with collision energy, which is in agreement with the canonical suppression scenario as proposed by A. Tounsi et. al. (Nucl. Phys. A 715, 565) But antiparticles seem to follow different trend.

16 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 16/28 Canonical suppression effect in the R AA. 0 1 2 3 4 p t (MeV) STAR preliminary nucl-ex/0705.2511 Higher values of R AA for strange particles. Effect of canonical suppression in strangeness production in p+p collisions extending to the intermediate p T region.

17 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 17/28 So, summarizing up to now: Enhancement of Λ, Ξ, Ω yield per participant in AuAu and CuCu data relative to pp reference. Does it agree with thermal model with canonical suppression?  Strangeness enhancement with strange quark content hierarchy  Dependency with collision energy  Difference between Baryon and Anti-baryons due to net baryon density.  Not flat with N part as predicted by the model.  CuCu show higher relative SE for Λ, Ξ, Ω when using N part   ´s does not show same behavior. Lets see what the thermal model tells us.

18 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 18/28 Statistical Thermal Model Statistical Thermal Model (THERMUS) * was used fitting T ch, μ B, μ S, and γ S (strangeness saturation factor). Particles used in the fit: π, K, p, Λ, Ξ, Ω and . Particles were corrected for weak decays. * Thermus, A thermal Model Package for Root S. Wheaton & Cleymans, hep-ph/0407174

19 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 19/28 Including the multi-strange baryons in the Thermal fit Does it make a difference if we include the strange hyperons in the thermal fit? Values change slightly and fit errors are reduced. T=150 MeV  165 MeV. Temperature and μ B increase slightly.

20 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 20/28 Statistical Thermal Model: T ch vs. system size Temperature seems constant with system size for Au+Au 200 GeV. Cu+Cu 200 GeV temperature shows a higher value then compared to Au+Au data, but is in agreement within error bars. Au+Au 62 GeV data shows same temperature values of Au+Au 200 GeV and also no system size dependence can be observed within error bars. Thermus, A thermal Model Package for Root S. Wheaton & Cleymans, hep-ph/0407174

21 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 21/28 Statistical Thermal Model:  B vs. system size * Thermus, A thermal Model Package for Root S. Wheaton & Cleymans, hep-ph/0407174 Baryon chemical potential μ B is small. Small variation with system size. Cu+Cu 200 GeV baryon chemical potential seems to be in good agreement with Au+Au 200 GeV. Au+Au 62 GeV data shows higher value of baryon chemical potential and larger variation with system size.

22 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 22/28 Statistical Thermal Model: Fit parameters vs. system size * Thermus, A thermal Model Package for Root S. Wheaton & Cleymans, hep-ph/0407174 Strangeness saturation constant, shows an increase with system size, reflecting the increase of strangeness enhancement. Cu+Cu 200 GeV data fits seems to yield a strangeness saturation constant consistent with 1. Au+Au 62 GeV data shows same values and behavior of Au+Au 200 GeV.

23 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 23/28 Comparing different Thermal Model conditions: Central Au+Au collision Particle ratios already described well with GC ensemble.  s is consistent with 1. Temperature increase with the strangeness canonical ensemble.

24 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 24/28 Comparing different thermal model conditions: Central Cu+Cu collision Particles ratios still well described with GC ensemble.  s is lower than 1. Canonical ensemble describes data slightly better.

25 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 25/28 Strangeness canonical radius. How does the canonical volume change with event centrality? How do strangeness production get affected by the canonical radius? SPS: R c ≈1.4 (I. Kraus & K. Redlich hep-ph/0604242)

26 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 26/28 Summary of thermal model study Statistical Thermal model fits reasonably well the particle ratios measured in STAR, indicating that data is consistent with a thermalized system.  Au+Au 200 and 62 GeV: Centrality dependence of thermal fits show increase of  s parameter, consistent with strangeness enhancement seen in the data yields.  Cu+Cu200 GeV: yields the same temperature and baryon chemical potential values obtained from the fit to Au+Au data.  Strangeness Canonical approach seems to yield better agreement with our data.

27 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 27/28 Conclusions Strangeness Enhancement in Au+Au and Cu+Cu relative to p+p data.  Still present in new Cu+Cu 200 GeV and Cu+Cu 62.4 GeV.  Enhancement characteristics show some agreement with canonical suppression scenario, but it is not enough to explain the observed enhancement.  Variation of strangeness canonical radius show enhancement of strange particles over pions. New Cu+Cu data was compared with Au+Au data scaled by N part to study system size dependence.  Overall spectra shape seems to be consistent with the equivalent peripheral Au+Au collision.  Cu+Cu most central events show higher yield compared to the equivalent Au+Au peripheral collision.  Same thermal model parameters for both systems.

32 Jun Takahashi for the STAR collaboration, WWND2008 South Padre Island, TX 32/28 Baryon to meson enhancement Λ/K 0 S ratio shows that strange baryon production is also enhanced over strange meson production in the intermediate p T region and Cu+Cu seems to be higher than Au+Au. These seems to be also a energy dependence of the baryon to meson enhancement.
