3 High p T hadron R AA Measured in 200GeV Au+Au collisions.  0 and  are very consistent. Results have been solid over years. 2014-09-12T.

4 Collision energy dependence of R AA  0 in Cu+Cu @ 200, 62.4, 22.4GeV (RHIC Year-5) – 200GeV and 62GeV show suppression, and 22.4GeV shows enhancement (Cronin)  0 in Au+Au @ 200, 62.4, 39GeV (RHIC Year-4, 7, 10) – Similar suppression at higher p T 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 4 PRL 101, 162301(2008) PRL109, 152301 (2012)

5 Centrality dependence of R AA Centrality dependence of integrated  0 R AA was investigated in Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions – As a function of cms energy Top: Cu+Cu: – 2.5<p T <3.5GeV/c Bottom: Au+Au – p T >6GeV/c Indication of a switch of suppression and enhancement below 39GeV? 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 5 PRL 101, 162301(2008) PRL109, 152301 (2012)

6 Similar suppression for RHIC and LHC? RHIC data from PHENIX publication –  0 in Au+Au @ 0.2TeV LHC data from ALICE publication – Charged hadrons in Pb+Pb @ 2.76TeV Center-of-mass energies differ by a factor of 14! Similar R AA doesn’t mean similar energy loss – R AA is not a good quantity? – Power of the spectra is different  energy loss will be different 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 6 PRC87, 034911 (2013)

7 Looking at suppressions from a different angle 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 7

8 New quantity ~momentum loss~ Coming back to the original idea: measuring energy loss of partons Statistically measure the fractional momentum loss (  p T /p T ) of high p T hadrons instead of R AA. 2014-09-12 8 T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France pTpT pTpT (p+p) denotes p+p yield scaled by number of binary nucleon- nucleon collisions (N coll ).

9 In 2005, statistics was not enough, so.. We assumed that the spectra at high p T follows power-law function With this assumption, we wrote a formula to obtain  p T /p T from R AA – Fractional momentum shift: S(p T )/p T =S 0 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 9 Note p T is p T in Au+Au PHENIX, PRC76, 034904 (2007)

10 S loss in 200GeV Au+Au collisions S loss (  p T /p T ), where p T is p T at a Au+Au point Lines: S loss  N part 2/3 – S loss increases approximately like N part 2/3 – GLV and PQM model suggested 2/3 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 10 PHENIX, PRC76, 034904 (2007)

11 Path-length dependence of R AA PHENIX measured the R AA as a function of emission angle with respect to event planes for several centralities – Gives handle of path-length that partons traverse L  is path from the center of ellipse to the edge 2014-09-12T.

12 Path-length dependence of S loss Converted R AA to S loss and plotted against L  Data points nicely aligned for 5<p T <8GeV/c 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 12 PHENIX, PRC76, 034904 (2007) cyan, 60–70% mauve, 50–60% blue, 40–50% green, 30–40% red, 20–30% black, 0–10%

13 ALICE recently performed similar study Using Pb+Pb 2.76TeV data (ALICE). L should be equivalent to the L  in the previous slide L is not very good at higher p T ? 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 13 P. Christiansen, K. Tywoniuk, and V. Vislavicius, PRC 89, 034912 (2014)

17 Fractional momentum loss (  p T /p T ) of  0 Measured fractional momentum loss (  p T /p T ) instead of R AA – In Au+Au collisions  p T /p T =0.2 in 0-10% centrality, =0.02 in 70-80% centrality 2014-09-12 17 T.

21 Systematic studies across systems We tried to plot  p T /p T against universal variables Number of participant nucleons (N part ) Number of quark participants (N qp ) Charged multiplicity (dN ch /d  ), as a measure of the energy density 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 21

22 Number of quark participants (Nqp)? Number of quark participants, N qp, is estimated using a Glauber model. – Nucleons are distributed using a Woods- Saxon distribution. – Quarks are distributed around the nucleon centers following:  (r)=  0 proton e - ar, where a = 4.27 fm -1. Quarks interact when their distance, d, satisfies the condition of: Quark-quark inelastic cross section (  qq inel ) is estimated by reproducing the n-n inelastic cross section of: 2014-09-12T.

23 Is N qp a good scaling variable? Recently, PHENIX found that the dE T /d  scales better with N qp than N part dE T /d  affects the energy loss of partons 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 23 dE T /d  /(0.5 N part )dE T /d  /(0.5 N qp ) PHENIX, PRC89, 044905 (2014)

30 Summary Looking at fractional momentum loss gives more insight on actual energy loss of partons – Similar R AA does not give similar energy loss Centrality, system, and energy dependence of fractional momentum loss is studied. – A trend is seen from 200GeV Au+Au to 2.76TeV Pb+Pb  p T /p T vs dN ch /d  for 200GeV Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions tend to merge into the one for 2.76TeV Pb+Pb collisions at larger dN ch /d , independent of √s NN. Within same √s NN, both N part and N qp scaling work very well. 2014-09-12T. Sakaguchi, HPT2014@Nantes, France 30
