  1. Producing hard processes regarding the complete event: The EPOS event generator Sarah Porteboeuf*, Klaus Werner, Tanguy Pierog Rencontres de Moriond, La Thuile, March 13th-20th 2010 *now at LLR, École polytechnique

  2. OUTLINE I – Hard processes II – EPOS event generator III – Production of hard processes with EPOS : selection method IV – Conclusions sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  3. pQCD Inclusive cross section: pp -> Jet +X Jet production cross section: Difficult to access the X part : exclusive computation No information on multiple interaction How to produce a jet connected to the event? sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  4. Multiple Interactions EPOS Acosta, Darin E. and others for the CDF collaboration, Phys. Rev. D65 (2002) 072005 Acosta, Darin E. and others for the CDF collaboration, Phys. Rev. D65 (2002) 072005 sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr Aaltonen, T. and others, for the CDF collaboration, 2009, arXiv hep-ex 0904.1098

  5. Gribov-Regge Theory Treat multiple interactions Effective fieldtheory Pomeron = objet thatrepresents an elementary interaction, but it’strue nature is not known Limitations: • Energy conservation, in the cross section computation, eachpomerontakes the total energy • How to consider hard processes? sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  6. Parton-based Gribov-Regge Theory Mixed approche between parton model and Gribov-Regge Energysharedbetween all elementary interactions Sameformalism for cross section computation and particle production Elementary interaction = soft Semi-hard soft: parametrised hard: parton model semi-hard: soft pre-evolutionbefore the hard part EPOS theoriticalframework S. Ostapchenko, T. Pierog, K. Werner, H.J. Drescher, M. Haldik Phys. Rep. 350 (2001) sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  7. EPOS, the events generator Energy conserving quantum mechanical multiple scattering approach Based on Partons, parton ladders, strings Off-shell remnants Splitting of parton ladder Who uses EPOS ? • Heavy ion physics (Last Call for Prediction ,« EPOS predictions at LHC Energies », S. Porteboeuf, T. Pierog and K.Werner (ed.) Armesto N. et al. J.Phys, G35 : 054001, 2008, Topcite 50+.) EPOS implemented in ALICE soft (ALIROOT) • pp physics : Study of strangenesswith EPOS and PYTHIA in pp, Strasbourg, GSI • Cosmic rays physics, excess muon problem, Auger. • Pierog, Werner, Phys. Rev. Lett, 101:171101 (2008) astro-ph/0611311 | hep-ph/0905.1198 sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  8. EPOS framework I1 I2 I3 I4 Parton-based Gribov Regge theory Sameformalism for cross section formalism and particle production Energy conservation Elementaryobject = ladder Same formalisme for soft and hard interactions In EPOS collectivity, even in pp. (seeTanguy’s talk) In the following: • Focus on description of a semi-hard ladder, • and difficultiesat LHC energies. sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  9. Parton Ladder I1 I2 I3 I4 σ hard Momentum distribution of parton (i,j) in the soft part Enter the ladder, proba of having a parton with Expression of one interaction pQCD, parton-parton cross section x x x + +/- - h1 PE PE PE Esoft(z+) Esoft(z-) h2 sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  10. Problematic Multiples interactions : essential element to describeentirely an event Old description of semi-hard ladder: create all partons step by step No control on whatisproduced. For rare events production, need to produce a lot of statistics to observe few cases. Condition not ok for LHC and study of physics of hard processes Need a solution to producedirectly rare eventswithkeeping multiple interactions aspects. sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  11. Generating semi-hard ladders… … A 2 step procedure Computation of partial cross section over total one: gives the probability of n collisions withmomentum fraction for ladder end 1) E Number of ladders and 2) Generation of partons along the ladder : Method of independant block K Detremine all the variables of the ladderindependently + x x x x x +/- + - - IB IB PE PE PE E sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  12. Approach Certification Jets cross-section production • Star Data : R=0.4 for jet finder, High Tower Trigger • Phys. Rev. Lett. 97 (2006) 252001 • Hep-ex/0608030 • NLO QCD (Vogelsang), R=0.4 • Phys. Rev. D70 (2004), 034010 • Hep-ph/0404057 • EPOS : hard parton production sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  13. Selection Method Principle of the selection method 1. Take one standard event 2. In this event, take one standard ladder 3. Take determined by usual MC 4. Procedure to generate is modified: • New MC based on block S C x • Force a cut > x x x x x x +/- +/- + + - - • Force production of highproducts PE IB IB IB IB IB C 5.

  14. Summury Hard processes : important physics for pQCD and QGP studies EPOS : goal to be a generator of completeevent 1 experimental event = 1 generator event Soft, hard, multiple interactions and collective effects in the same event Selection Method Old model : iterative generation of all partons along ladders Hard process = rare event, no control on the production Solution : selection method that gives directly access to different variables, can implement cuts EPOS : a dedicated event generator for hard process – underlying event interaction study Method tested and validated sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  15. One outlook for such an event generator: 14 TeV 10 TeV Ratio for different energies 5.5 TeV 1.8 TeV “Bulk” in full line hydro “Jet” in dotted lines 200 GeV sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  18. What are jets ? Asked to Experimentalist (from heavy ion communitty) A collimated flux of particle coming from the fragmentation of a hard parton Swallowed up in particles coming from the underlying event Identified by a jet finder algorithm for a defined Radius 21 GeVdi-jet reconstructed from a central Au+Au event at √sNN=200 GeV in the STAR detector. http://www.bnl.gov/rhic/news/102108/story2.asp sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  20. Multiples Interactions High Energies : problème !!! More than one interaction per collision => Total cross section and partial one, inclusive and exclusive cross scetion Attention : d’abitude gribov-regge pour soft, Ici, pour tout X.N.Wang, M.Gyulassy, Phys.

  24. Collective Effect of a dense core Modification of the string procedure : Nuclei • Corona = low density, classical EPOS particle production • Core = high density, hydro expansion One defines a freeze-out surface : transition from strongly interacting matter to free hadrons. Parametrisation of the freeze out hypersurface. Already available in pp interactions. sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  41. UA1 and STAR on the same Plot X 2 Nucl. Phys. B309 (1988) 405 Phys. Rev. Lett. 97 (2006) 252001 sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  42. Comparison with UA1 DATA • Data : UA1, Nucl. Phys. B309 (1988) 405 Jet Spectrum : use of a Jet Finder R=0.7 • EPOS : Out Born Parton, R =Rmax (everything is in the jet) • NLO Vogeslgang : thanks to Joana Kiryluk for the plot, NLO computation with R=0.7 sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  43. Comparison with STAR DATA • Star Data : R=0.4 for jet finder, High Tower Trigger • Phys. Rev. Lett. 97 (2006) 252001 • Hep-ex/0608030 • NLO QCD (Vogelsang), R=0.4 • Phys. Rev. D70 (2004), 034010 • Hep-ph/0404057 • EPOS : pt out born : Rmax sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  44. Comparison with STAR DATA Data exctracted with a jet finder algorithm : • Influence of the jet fnder : efficiency, cone, kt • Influence of the jet resolution : systematic uncertainties • Smearing effect ? Could we really compare with analytic computation such as EPOS? Comparison with NLO QCD Vogeslgang Take into account some effect of the small radius R=0.4 Comparison with UA1 DATA? Same observable, same energy : same plot? But : different analysis, different R, different binning sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  45. Comparison with DATA First good test for EPOS jet production : Good agreement between EPOS and NLO Vogelsgang (R=0.7) Lessthan a factor 2 between EPOS and Star Data over 9 orders of magnitude Difficulttask : EPOS : out Born parton = total jet (Rmax) Need to do the Study by using jet finder on EPOS events DATA : Reconstructed Jets, Jet Finder, variable R NLO Vogeslgang : Computation with variable R sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  46. Ratio lambda/k0s sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  47. Ratio lambda/k0s Strageness : a signature of the Quark Gluon Plasma in heavy ion collisions In pp collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV : flat ratio and remainded below unity With increasing energy : the behaviour changes! Hélène is working on that issue Is this ratio the same if we look at the bulk, if we look at jets ? sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr

  48. Ratio lambda/k0s In EPOS, look at this ratio in pp collisions for : “The Bulk” : here everything, no trigger on particles origin, effects from collectivity “Jets” : all particles coming from semi-hard ladders jet disconnected from the medium Preliminary study to see what could be done at LHC sarah.porteboeuf@llr.in2p3.fr
