2 STAR Outline Motivation Analysis Method Results & Discussions Summary STAR Au+Au 200GeV Year 2004 Running Data ~13M Events

3 STAR Di-hadron correlations For high p T :away-side correlation is gone! back-to-back jets are quenched At lower p T :away-side correlations return but they are highly modified with a double bump!? We will try to understand what causes this behavior p T,trig >4 GeV/c p T,ass >2 GeV/c 0.2 0.6 0.4 0.0 p T,trig >2.5 GeV/c p T,ass >1.0 GeV/c STAR preliminary

4 STAR Centrality dependence Singly-peaked -> broadened -> becomes doubly bump What’s the baryon/meson ratio in the near- and away-side peak? What are the anti-baryon-to-baryon ratios? We will measure the ratios to try to understand the source of the correlations in different centralities. p T,trig >2.5 GeV/c p T,ass >1.0 GeV/c M. Horner, QM06

5 STAR STAR preliminary B/M Ratio Intermediate p T large enhancement of baryon/meson ratio in central Au+Au relative to p+p reaches maximum at p T ~3 GeV/c Perhaps related to faster increase with centrality of baryon production from recombination Intermediate p T, Baryon & Meson: Grouping of R CP and v 2 ----recombination pictures Can recombination explain particle ratios in the jet cones?
6
6 STAR Anti-B/B Ratio Intermediate p T We can also learn about gluons vs quarks from B/B ratios with the jet correlation. For example:anti-baryons dominated by gluon jets baryons mixture of quark and gluon STAR preliminary

7 STAR Anti-Baryon Density Collisions which contain ggg, qbar+g or qqbar+g processes have higher anti-baryon phase space density Anti-baryon phase space density from collisions involving a gluon is much higher than those without a gluon STAR preliminary H.D.Liu QM06 From B/B ratios in the correlation Baryon & Anti-baryon production with Jets Gluon vs. Quarks with Jets H. Liu, Z. Xu nucl-ex/0610035

8 STAR Trigger-associate correlations Identified particles correlations & B/M, B/B ratio can provide additional information on: jet quenching baryon/meson enhancement at STAR particle production mechanisms Di-hadron correlation Away-side shape We’ll study identified associate particles using Trigger: Charged hadron, p T >3.0 GeV/c Associate: K S 0, , or (i.e. V 0 decay), p T >1.0 GeV/c parton trigger hadron Λ, Λ, K 0 S parton near-side associated away-side associated

9 STAR Analysis method Step 1:3-D histogram with , , and m inv (Trigger-V0 pair) Step 2:Project over a given range in this talk I show results for -1< <1: (combine jets & some ridge) Step 3:Plot m inv vs. Fit the m inv distribution yield dN/d ( K S 0, , or ) m inv Step 4:Repeat 1 to 3 with mixed events Step 5:Scale the mixed event background with measured v 2 Subtract off the background ZYAM (zero-yield at the minimum) ZYA1 (zero-yield at one )

12 STAR STAR Preliminary Baryon to Meson Ratio with Jets Lambda to Ks Ratio : Away-Side > Near-Side Anti-Proton to Ratio : Away-Side > Near-Side (PHENIX) Both STAR and PHENIX results consistent with larger B/M ratio on the Away-Side than Near-Side.
13
13 STAR The shape of the ratio away near Medium mach cone Medium away near deflected jets Can we learn something about the shape on the away-side? Sound wave excitation particles maybe slower than the speed of sound (v s =c/3) For our p T range slower particles would have to be heavy For production from sound wave excitation the bumps should have mostly heavy particles ( + )/K S 0 would get large in the bump region 0.2 0.6 0.4 0.0 p T,trig >2.5 GeV/c p T,ass >1.0 GeV/c STAR preliminary Mach Cone Concept/Calculations Stoecker, Casalderry-Solana et al; Muller et al.; Ruppert et al., … Cherenkov Radiation Majumder, Koch, & Wang; Vitev Jet Deflection (Flow) Fries; Armesto et al.; Hwa M.

Slow particle Double bump K S 0 Fast particle Double bump ?? K S 0 Fast particle Double bump ?? B/M ratio: Away-Side seems to increase in the "cone" region - as it maybe for sound wave excitation.B/M ratio: Away-Side seems to increase in the "cone" region - as it maybe for sound wave excitation. Increased B/M ratio may also be consistent with recombination in high density region of the shock-waveIncreased B/M ratio may also be consistent with recombination in high density region of the shock-wave Error bars too large to get strong conclusionsError bars too large to get strong conclusions The same shape in the away-side using v 2 background from three different methods The shape of Baryon to Meson ratio on the away-side seems to be independent of v 2 background and background subtraction method. Perhaps a slope, but error bars are still too large to draw conclusions. + K S 0

19 STAR Summary Measured the Conditional Yields of identified associate particles on the near- and away-side of jets From central to peripheral : Double bump -> Broadened -> Singly-peaked Extracted particle ratios on the near and away-side Systematic errors from v 2 and background normalization are large –errors can be reduced with more data (to reduce error on the level of the background) –and better understanding of v 2 (to reduce uncertainty on the shape of the background) Both STAR and PHENIX results consistent with larger B/M ratio on the away-side than near-side Shape of away-side has been studied –some indication of a slope for B/M and / on the away-side (mach-cone? gluon vs. quark? Or others?) –slope of B/M and / on the away-side seems to be independent of v 2 and background subtraction method Thanks!! Acknowledgments: STAR Collaboration Dr. Paul Sorensen
