Baryon vs. Meson Trigger
Feb 2013Kolja Kauder, LLWI 2013
Between 1.5~5 GeV: Enhanced relative baryon yield
Well captured byrecombination/coalescence
Baryon trigger: Stronger Dilution?

At high pT: Mesons bias toward q
jets? Color charge effect on
energy loss?

2D Correlation – d+Au
No appreciable ridge Cone is similar in d+Au
Signs of dilution are there, but subtle

Scaling of Fourier Coefficients
Feb 2013Kolja Kauder, LLWI 2013
Expect flow-like harmonics to scale with quark number
Non-Pions: P / K ratio also measured.
Indications that V2 and V3 scale differently

Summary
Feb 2013
Identified Triggers Jet Cone: Associated yield much larger for pion
than proton+kaon triggers.
Signs of enhancement compared to d+Au Ridge: Associated yield smaller for pions. Scaling
behavior constrains models
Outlook: Quantify comparison to ReCo Proton-Kaon separation Quark vs. Gluon Jets?
