TRANSCRIPT
High pT and Direct Production
T.C. Awes, ORNL
International Workshop on RHIC and LHC Detectors Delphi, Greece, June 9, 2003
Theme: “The virtue of ’s and ’s”
To determine if we have produced deconfined QGP we must separately distinguish initial state effects from final state effects.
Once produced, ’s do not interact -> sensitive to: ( yield goes )• initial parton distributions: Intrinsic kT, kT Broadening, Shadowing, Saturation• final state parton/hadron rescatterings: Thermal, Jet/Parton Radiation
Experimental virtues (calorimeter measurement):• Measure and in same detector (get 2 for the price of 1!)• Identified particles to very high pT • ’s abundantly produced• mass provides calibration check
’s will suffer additional final state effects: Rescattering (low pT), Absorption, kT Broadening, Jet/Parton Energy Loss

Nuclear effects other than a dense medium are known to affect hadron spectra (e.g. shadowing, Cronin effect) in p+A and d+A collisions, which do not have a created medium. Could these other influences be causing the suppression of high-PT hadrons in Au+Au collisions? If so, then we should also see suppression of high-PT hadrons in d+Au collisions.

The dAu results suggest that the created medium is responsible for hadron suppression in Au+Au

Possibly a larger effect in protons at medium pT?

• Compare to proton-induced prompt results: Assume hard process - scale
with the number of binary collisions (=660 for central).
Assume invariant yield has form f(xT)/s2 where xT=2pT/s1/2 for s1/2-scaling.
• Factor ~2 variation in p-induced results.
• Similar spectral shape for Pb case, but factor ~2-3 enhanced yield. WA98 nucl-ex/0006007, PRL 85 (2000) 3595.
Direct Comparison to pQCD Calculation
• NLO pQCD calculations factor of 2-5 below s1/2 =19.4 GeV p-induced prompt results.
• But p-induced can be reproduced by effective NLO (K-factor introduced) if intrinsic kT is included.
• Same calculation at s1/2=17.3 GeV reproduces p-induced result scaled to s1/2 =17.3 GeV
• Similar spectrum shape for Pb case, but factor ~2-3 enhanced yield.

Summary and Conclusions
• A strong suppression of hadron production is observed in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC (but protons not suppressed?); possibly due to parton energy loss in medium (not conclusive).
• The hadron production in d+Au collisions shows no strong suppression of high-PT
hadrons. Strongly indicative that suppression effect in Au+Au is due to created QCD medium.
• Suppression also occurs at SPS energies, but much weaker and obscured by large Cronin effect.
• Direct signal observed at SPS in Pb+Pb collisions possibly explained by EOS with QGP, but also consistent with HG. Many ambiguities - poor pQCD description, intrinsic kT effects, etc. Situation will be clearer at RHIC.
• Due to suppression, direct signal at RHIC and LHC should stand out like a beacon!
