N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20074 Quark scaling of v2 indicates flow sets in at the partonic stage Strong quenching observed for high pt hadrons hydro-like flow observed High Energy Density matter produced in 200 GeV Au + Au Initial anisotropy gives large pressure gradients
5
N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20075 Even the phi which has a very low hadronic scattering cross-section develops a v2 which scales with the mesons. Strong indication of flow developing at the partonic stage Phi meson Flow
6
N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20076 lambdas and cascades also show strong v2 according to the expected scaling pattern further supporting the view that flow sets in at the partonic stage Lambda & Cascade Flow

N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20077 Observation of significant flow for the D meson which implies charm flow D Meson Flow

N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20078 G. D. Moore, D. Teaney hep-ph/0412346 Calculation of the charm spectrum and the elliptic flow as a function of the diffusion coefficient implies surprisingly strong rescattering behaviour for the heavy quark. An indication of the rather special attributes of the matter formed. Strongly coupled liquid ? Charm Diffusion

N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 20079 Although a part of this effect may be trivially related to the contribution of resonances, the possibility of medium modification contributions is an interesting area of investigation. PHENIX Data to be published in PRL One way to do this would be to look at the source function at different orientations with respect to a high pt particle Imaging Studies Source functions extracted for charged pions produced in Au+Au collisions show non-Gaussian tails.
10
N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 200710 Such a low value is consistent with the observation of substantial elliptic flow and may provide the conditions for a special medium response to hard probes such as Mach flow R. Lacey et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 98,092301 (2007) The shear viscosity to entropy ratio (eta /s) is estimated for the hot and dense QCD matter created in 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. A very low value ~0.1 is found which is close to the conjectured lower bound (1/4 pi ) Shear viscosity to Entropy ratio
11
N. N. Ajitanand Jyvaskyla 200711 There is strong evidence to support the view that the medium thermalizes rapidly during the partonic stage and exhibits a high degree of collectivity. Study of the medium response to high pT probes is a natural next step
12
12 Jets are a natural probe of the Medium In relatvistic heavy ion collisions hard parton- parton processes occur early Following hard collisions, scattered partons propagate through the medium radiating gluons and interacting with partons of the medium Finally partons fragment, (possibly) outside the medium
