1 1 Parton Recombination at all p T Rudolph C. Hwa University of Oregon Hard Probes 2004 Ericeira, Portugal, November 2004

2 2 Outline How parton recombination resolves a number of puzzles. Shower partons Inclusive distributions at all p T in Au+Au and d+Au collisions (Cronin effect) Dihadron correlations Forward production in d+Au collisions Why fragmentation is inadequate at intermediate p T in heavy-ion collisions.

3 3 Conventional approach to hadron production at high p T D(z) h q AA There are numerous evidences against this framework: hard scattering  fragmentation in heavy-ion collisions.

4 4 Exhibit #1 R p/π  1 Not possible in fragmentation model: R p/π u

5 5 k T broadening by multiple scattering in the initial state. Unchallenged for ~30 years. If the medium effect is before fragmentation, then  should be independent of h=  or p Exhibit #2 in pA or dA collisions Cronin Effect Cronin et al, Phys.Rev.D (1975) p q h A  p >  

7 7 Exhibit #3 Jet structure Hard parton  jet {  (p 1 ) +  (p 2 ) +  (p 3 ) + ···· } trigger particleassociated particles The distribution of the associated particles should be independent of the medium if fragmentation takes place in vacuum.

8 8 Exhibit #3 Jet structure for Au+Au collisions is different from that for p+p collisions pp Fuqiang Wang (STAR) Quark Matter 2004

9 9 Azimuthal anisotropy Exhibit #4 v 2 (p) > v 2 (  ) at p T > 2.5 GeV/c v 2 : coeff. of 2nd harmonic in  distribution

10 10 Exhibit #5 Backward-forward asymmetry at intermed. p T in d+Au collisions

11 11 The problem: Fragmentation of hard partons that works so well in leptonic and hadronic processes is only one of many components when the hard parton is in the environment of many soft partons, as in heavy-ion collisions.

12 12 How can recombination solve the puzzles? Parton distribution p p 1 +p 2 pq (recombine)(fragment) hadron momentum higher yieldheavy penalty

13 13 D(z) h q AA Conventional approach h Thermal-shower recombination thermal shower

22 22  production in AuAu central collision at 200 GeV Hwa & CB Yang, PRC70, 024905 (2004) fragmentation thermal

23 23 Proton production in AuAu collisions TTS+TSS TSS TTT SS S

24 24 Puzzle #1 Proton/pion ratio resolved Hwa & CB Yang, PRC70, 024905 (2004)

25 25 All in recombination/ coalescence model Compilation of R p/  by R. Seto (UCR) Duke: Fries, Mueller, Nonaka, Bass, PRL90,202303(2003);PRC68,044902(2003). TAM: Greco, Ko, Levai, PRL,90,202302(2003); PRC68,034904(2003).

26 26 d+Au collisions Pions Hwa & CB Yang, PRL 93, 082302 (2004) No p T broadening by multiple scattering in the initial state. Medium effect is due to thermal (soft)-shower recombination in the final state.  = 1 soft-soft

27 27  0,  production in p+A collisions  0 : α = 1.1  : α = 1.0

28 28 Proton Thermal-shower recombination is negligible. Thermal-shower recombination is NOT negligible.

29 29 Nuclear Modification Factor because 3q  p, 2q   Puzzle #2 resolved

30 30 Jet Structure A simple consequence of TS recombination being more important in Au+Au collisions than in p+p collisions. Consider dihadron correlation in the same jet on the near side. Exhibit #3 Jet structure in Au+Au different from that in p+p collisions

31 31 Trigger at 4 < p T < 6 GeV/c p+p:mainly SS fragmentation Au+Au: mainly TS k p 1 (trigger) q1q1 q3q3 Associated particle p 2 (associated) q2q2 q4q4 trigger associated

32 32 There are other contributions as well. (TS) + [SS] (SS) + [TS] (SS) + [SS] too small for Au+Au but the only term for p+p trigger associated ( TS) + [TS]

33 33 (TS)[TS] (TS)[SS]+(SS)[TS] (SS)[SS] for p+p collisions much lower Associated particle distribution ++

34 34 Associated particle distribution in central Au+Au collisions Hwa & Yang, PRC (2004) p ++ --

35 35 Centrality dependence of associated-particle dist. Distributions Ratios Au+Au central d+Au peripheral d+Au central d+Au peripheral Jets in Au+Au and in p+p are very different.Exhibit #3 p+p

37 37 Azimuthal anisotropy Exhibit #4 v 2 (p) > v 2 (  ) at p T > 2.5 GeV/c v 2 : coeff. of 2nd harmonic of  distribution PHENIX, PRL 91 (2003)

38 38 Molnar and Voloshin, PRL 91, 092301 (2003). Parton coalescence implies that v 2 (p T ) scales with the number of constituents STAR data

39 39 Exhibit #5 Forward-backward asymmetry at intermed. p T in d+Au collisions STAR preliminary data

40 40 Rapidity dependence of R CP in d+Au collisions BRAHMS nucl-ex/0403005 R CP < 1 at  =3.2 Central more suppressed than peripheral collisions This can be understood in terms of parton recombination.

41 41 Forward production in d+Au collisions Notation: Centrality 0-20%  = 0.1 60-80% 0.7 for all  and  Soft component: Pion distribution C( ,  ) Same hadronization process as at  =0.

42 42 Centrality (Impact Parameter) Dependence d  for d + Au Collisions at 200 GeV Preliminary  can be calculated.

43 43 Hwa, Yang, and Fries, nucl-th/0410111 Our prediction on the  + spectra for 0  3.2, 0.1  0.7

44 44 T=constant, no free parameter No new physics, e.g. gluon saturation, explicitly.

45 45 Include  and  dependences of T (one free parameter) and momentum degradation Hwa, Yang, Fries, nucl-th/0410111

46 46 Without any more free parameters

47 47 Summary Traditional picture pTpT 0246810 hardsoft pQCD + FF More realistic picture pTpT 0246810 hardsoftsemi-hard (low)(intermediate) thermal-thermalthermal-shower (high) shower-shower

48 48 All anomalies at intermediate p T can be understood in terms of recombination of thermal and shower partons Recombination is the hadronization process. At p T > 9 GeV/c fragmentation dominates, but it can still be expressed as shower-shower recombination. Hence, parton recombination at all p T.

49 49 Conclusion in one sentence Due to the soft parton environment in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC, hadronization by thermal-shower recombination dominates all phenomena on particle production at intermediate p T for all centralities and all rapidities.
