  6. Why baryons?(mostly for protons and antiprotons in this talk) PHENIX: PRL 91, 172301 (2003), PRC 69, 034909 (2004) STAR: arXiv:0808.2041v1 Heavier mass than the light mesons, sensitive to the collective phenomena, such as a radial flow. Sensitive to the baryo-chemical property of the matter. Different number of constituent quarks from that for mesons, test of recombination models.

  10. 2. BULK PROPERTIES AT RHIC

  11. What are the bulk properties (EOS)? • Energy density (e) • Temperature (T): • critical temperature (Tc), initial temperature (Tini), chemical freeze-out temperature (Tch), kinetic freeze-out temperature (Tkin) • Chemical potential (m): • baryon chemical potential (mB), strangeness chemical potential (ms), strangeness suppression factor (gs) • Collective flow velocity (<bT>) • Pressure gradient (DP), particle emission anisotropy (v2) • Particle multiplicity (dN/dy, N) • Transverse energy (dET/dy, ET) • Transverse momentum distribution (Ed3N/dp3) • Particle abundance and ratio • Average transverse momentum (<pT>) • HBT radii (Rout, Rside, Rlong, l) • Velocity of sound (vs) • Shear viscosity – entropy ratio (h/s) ….

  12. What are the bulk properties (EOS)? • red: directly measured by pT spectra • pink: indirectly measured by pT spectra Q. How the bulk properties change as a function of centrality, system and beam energy? • Energy density (e) • Temperature (T): • critical temperature (Tc), initial temperature (Tini), chemical freeze-out temperature (Tch), kinetic freeze-out temperature (Tkin) • Chemical potential (m): • baryon chemical potential (mB), strangeness chemical potential (ms), strangeness suppression factor (gs) • Collective flow velocity (<bT>) • Pressure gradient (DP), particle emission anisotropy (v2) • Particle multiplicity (dN/dy, N) • Transverse energy (dET/dy, ET) • Transverse momentum distribution (Ed3N/dp3) • Particle abundance and ratio • Average transverse momentum (<pT>) • HBT radii (Rout, Rside, Rlong, l) • Velocity of sound (vs) • Shear viscosity – entropy ratio (h/s) ….

  16. Semi-Inclusive soft particle spectra Au+Au 200 GeV central (b < 2.6 fm) PHENIX:PRC 69, 034909 (2004) • <pT>:  < K < p • consistent with radial flow picture. Hydro QCD D.d'Enterria &D. Peressounko nucl-th/0503054

  17. <pT> vs. Nch STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 ST: Transverse overlap area [fm2] • <pT> scales with √((dNp/dy)/S), p+p 200 GeV, Au+Au 62.4, 130, 200 GeV data. • Suggests that the kinetic freeze-out properties in Au+Au collisions are energy independent. • CGC (gluon saturation): small x gluons overlap and recombine, reducing the total number of gluons and increasing their transverse energy. • Predicts a lower particle multiplicity and larger <pT>. • In CGC, <pT> scales with √((dNp/dy)/S). • Data is consistent with CGC picture.

  18. Antiparticle-to-Particle Ratios vs. Nch STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 p-/p+: Flat dNch/dy dependence, and unity for all systems. • pbar/p: • A slight decrease with centrality (130, 200 GeV) • Considerable drop with centrality (62 GeV) •  indicating that larger baryon stopping in central collisions.

  22. Bulk properties vs. Nch (1) Tch, Tkin <bT> STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 • Tch: constant with dNch/dy. • close to the lattice QCD: Tc ~160 MeV. • universality at RHIC energies. • Tkin: decreasing with dNch/dy. • same trend for all systems at RHIC (with dNch/dy) • indicating strong expansion and cooling? <b>: incleasing with dNch/dy, eventually saturate?

  23. Bulk properties vs. Nch (2) mB,s gs STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 • gs: approaching to unity with dNch/dy. • Strangeness production is strongly suppressed in p+p, dAu, peripheral Au+Au. In central Au+Au, implying that strangeness is as equally equilibrated as light quarks. mB: finite value, weak centrality dependence (200 GeV Au+Au). ms: close to zero.

  27. 3. SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF BARYON ENHANCEMENT

  28. Baryon enhancement at RHIC PHENIX: PRL 91, 172301 (2003), PRC 69, 034909 (2004), PRC 74, 024904 (2006) In Au+Au sNN = 200 GeV central collisions: • RCP (or RAA) • Pions: Strong suppression of yields above pT ~ 2 GeV/c, due to jet quenching. • Protons: No suppression at intermediate pT (2-5 GeV/c). • p/ and pbar/ ratios • Factor ~3 more (anti) protons than pions at intermediate pT (2-5 GeV/c). • Strong centrality dependence.

  29. Systematic study of PID spectra: (Au+Au) Cu+Cu, p+p at sNN = 22.5, 62.4, 200 GeV Au+Au, Cu+Cu, p+p @ 62.4 GeV Cu+Cu, p+p (ISR) @ 22.4 GeV (23 GeV in p+p)

  30. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) * No weak decay feed-down correction applied. p+p 62.4 GeV, set the baseline for HI data. PHENIX data agrees with ISR data.

  31. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) Cu+Cu 22.5 GeV, pbar/ ratio in central agrees with p+p.

  32. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) Cu+Cu 62.4 GeV, pbar/ ratio larger than those in p+p and Cu+Cu 22.5 GeV.

  33. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) Cu+Cu 200 GeV, similar to those in Cu+Cu 62.4 GeV.

  34. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) Au+Au 62 GeV, pbar/- is unchanged from Cu+Cu 200 GeV

  35. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (central) Au+Au 200 GeV, p-bar/- is enhanced.

  36. s dep. of pbar/- ratio (peripheral) Peripheral collisions for all systems Seems to be conversing to the same line

  37. 0 1.0 2.0 3.0 pT (GeV/c) Comparison with SPS data T. Schuster, A. Laszlo (NA49) nucl-ex/0606005 (Pb+Pb 17.2 GeV) (Au+Au 200 GeV) (Au+Au 200 GeV) Pb+Pb 17.2 GeV (central) 0.25 SPS Pb+Pb: consistent with Cu+Cu 22.5 GeV pbar/.

  38. pbar/- ratio (central): summary • Increasing as a function of s. • Indicates the onset of baryon enhancement is in between 22 GeV and 62 GeV. * No weak decay feed-down correction applied.

  39. p0 pT spectra in Cu+Cu and p+p at 22.4, 62.4, 200 GeV PHENIX: PRL 101, 162301 (2008)

  40. p0 RAA in Cu+Cu: energy dep. PHENIX: PRL 101, 162301 (2008) • Enhancement at 22 GeV. • Consistent with no energy loss model.

  41. RAA of antiprotons PRC 74, 024904 (2006), PHENIX Au+Au, d+Au 200 GeV JPS-DNP Hawaii 2009 (TC) Antiprotons: all looks similar, weaker √sNN and system dependences.

  42. Comparison of RAA, pbar/p ratios(for central HI collisions) Qualitatively different at mid pT between √sNN = 22.4 GeV and 62.4 GeV for central HI collisions

  43. 4. WHAT’S THE ORIGIN OF BARYON ENHANCEMENT?

  44. Near side Away side Jet induced baryon enhancement? Away side two peaks (shoulder) Sonic shock wave? Baryon/Meson effect?

  45. Jet-pair distribution for associated M/B PHENIX: PRL 101, 082301 (2008) Trigger particle: charged hadron (2.5 <pT,trig < 4.0 GeV/c) Associate particle: meson or baryons (1.0 – 2.0 GeV/c). Near side: substantially weaker for associated baryons. Away side: similar for associated mesons and baryons. Same “Shoulder” structure appeared for both mesons and baryons.

  46. Conditional jet yields for M/B PHENIX: PRL 101, 082301 (2008) • Mesons: • Exponential decrease with increasing pT, assoc. • Yield increase from peripheral to central, with different slope • Incompatible with in-vacuum fragmentation • Due to contribution from correlated soft partons, recombination, energy loss, etc… ? • Baryons: • Totally different from those for mesons. • Not exponential shape. • Yield (away) > Yield (near). • Might be due to the correlated soft parton recombination?

  47. Baryon/meson ratios associated with high pT hadron trigger (2.5 < pT < 4GeV/c) PHENIX: PRL 101, 082301 (2008) • Peripheral ratios ~ vacuum fragmentation • In-jet ratios ~ inclusive p/(+K) • Away-side “shoulder” & baryon enhancement in single spectra might be same origin. • Recombination of correlated soft partons induced via strong parton medium interactions? • Need more high pT data to conclude…

  48. 3 < pt,trig< 4 GeV/c pt,assoc. > 2 GeV/c Au+Au 0-10% STAR preliminary Intermediate pT ridge & Jet (near side only) (from SQM08, O. Barannikova, STAR) Au+Au: 2 < pTtrig < 3 GeV/c Cu+Cu: 3 < pTtrig < 6 GeV/c pTtrig > 4.0 GeV/c 2.0 < pTAssoc< pTtrig p+p / p++p- • p/p, L/K: • Production mechanisms for jet and ridge are different. • Same origin for ridge (STAR) and away side shoulder (PHENIX)?

  50. Excitation functions of freeze-out properties STAR, arXiv:0808.2041 Q: Freeze-out properties changes from AGS to SPS (e.g. √sNN~10 GeV )? • μB: falls monotonically (log). • Tch: rapidly rises at SIS and AGS energy, saturates at SPS and RHIC energies (a unique Tch ~ Tc from lattice QCD). • Tkin: decoupled at √sNN~10 GeV from Tch. Due to the strong collective flow, matter is cooled  prolong period of chemical freeze-out and kinetic freeze-out. • <bT> : rapid increase from SIS to AGS, increasing slowly from SPS to RHIC.
