Pressure gradient is largest in the shortest direction of the ellipsoid. Emission particles reflect initial spatial anisotropy transfer.

Elliptic Flow (electron) What have we learned from Anisotropic Flow of electron Compared with quark coalescence model prediction. consistent with charm quark flow model below 2 GeV/c. Electron sources charm decay beauty decay Dalitz decay Di-electron decay photon conversion Kaon decay Thermal dileptons non photonic electron photonic electron indicate charm quark flow (1) Consistent with c thermal (2) large cross section ; ~10 mb [PRC72,024906] [Phys.Lett.

7 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI7 2-1. Direct photon Direct photon (non hadronic photon) : probe of initial collision Photon have much weaker interactions with other particles and thus preserve information about their creation. Direct photons are one of the most effective probes to study properties of hot dense medium at initial state of heavy ion collisions.

10 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI10 2-4. Nuclear modification factor -Neutral mesons receive strong suppression. -Direct photon is not suppressed in mid to high p T -> Direct photon have original information different from hadron analysis -Strong suppression of neutral mesons makes possible the clear extraction of direct photon signal Double ratio :  inclusive /  background

11 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI11 3-1. Direct photon v 2 We attempt to measure the azimuthal anisotropy of direct photon two initial probes combine + v 2 --- reflect the shape + direct photon --- reflect the properties of particle emission source motivation !

16 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI16 5-1. result ~ direct photon v 2 ~ Direct photon v 2 estimated by back ground v 2 subtracted from inclusive photon v 2. They are the result of direct photon v 2 analysis in Au+Au collisions.

17 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI17 5-2. result ~ direct photon v 2 ~ PHENIX preliminary We compared to another v 2 analysis and modification factor. - Direct photon v 2 seems to zero within error bar in high p T. -> It is consistent to the result of R AA analysis. - Direct photon v 2 may be non zero in 3 to 4 GeV/c region. -> Thermal photon ?? - Direct photon have smaller v 2 than  0 v 2 in high p T. - Direct photon have another value to proton v 2 in high p T. -> This analysis suggest the another information from hadron v 2 analysis. line : total error

18 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI18 5-3. result ~ non-photonic electron v 2 and R AA ~ We compared to v 2 and RAA at non-photonic electron. R AA -> suppress in the high p T v 2 -> decrease in the high p T These figures indicate the another structure to hadron or photon analysis.

19 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI19 6-1. Next step … Direct photon v 2 need more accuracy to do discussion as the initial probe of collisions. - more statistics ? - another method ? Now, we are interested in internal conversion method to see the v 2 in middle p T. theoretical curve of thermal photon Thermal photon (HG+QGP): v 2 R. Chatterjee et al. nucl-th/0511079

21 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI21 6-3. invariant yield of direct photon Direct photon invariant yield is compared to thermal + pQCD curve L.E.Gordon and W.Vogelsang Phys. Rev. D48, 3136 (1993) D. d’Enterria, D. Perresounko nucl-th / 0503054 Data consistent with thermal + pQCD If we estimate the direct photon v 2 from this method, is the result improved ? it continues …

22 24/Nov/2006Kentaro MIKI22 7. summary Azimuthal Anisotropy of direct photon are estimated in PHENIX. Direct photon v 2 is equal to zero within error bar in high p T region. Direct photon v 2 maybe have centrality dependence. In the future, this v 2 are measured at more accuracy in inter-mediate p T. It is possibility to see the thermal photon effect to v 2. We are determining the internal conversion method as a next step.
