13 Time evolution of the collision geometry Quark Matter - Washington, D.C. - 14 August 2012 - Neha Shah - STAR 13 Spatial eccentricity With 1 st order P.T. Without 1 st Order P.T. Target Projectile Kolb and Heinz, 2003, nucl-th/0305084  Initial out-of-plane eccentricity  Stronger in-plane pressure gradients drive preferential in-plane expansion  Longer lifetimes or stronger pressure gradients cause more expansion and more spherical freeze- out shape  We want to measure the eccentricity at freeze out, ε F, as a function of energy using azimuthal HBT:  Non-monotonic behavior could indicate a soft point in the equation of state.

14 Azimuthal HBT Quark Matter - Washington, D.C. - 14 August 2012 - Neha Shah - STAR14 Is there a non-monotonic behavior?  s NN (GeV) J. Phys. G: Nucl. Part. Phys. 38 (2011) 124148  Evolution of the initial shape depends on the pressure anisotropy - Freeze-out eccentricity sensitive to the 1 st order phase transition.

15 Complete Energy Scan Quark Matter - Washington, D.C. - 14 August 2012 - Neha Shah - STAR15 Is the discrepancy due to centrality or rapidity range? - NO -1.0<y<-0.5 -0.5<y<0.5 0.5<y<1.0
