  1. Identified “High” pT particle Correlations Ying Guo Wayne State University For STAR Collaboration Hot Quark 2004

  2. Outline • Introduction • Data analysis • Preliminary results • Discussion

  3. partonic energy loss Motivation: • Get a better understanding of the high pT azimuthal correlations • Particle identified jet correlation study provides us additional information about the jet quenching and particle production mechanisms. • The strange particle identified jet correlation can be used as a probe to study the flavor dependence of the strong interaction and the fragmentation process.

  4.   Phys. Rev. Lett. 91 (2003) 172302 Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 (2003) 082302 nucl-ex/0407007 Medium Quench effect of the High pT particles Potential improvement of the original measurements • background subtraction method • variable away side range (Δφ)

  6. Uncorrelated background reshaped by flow Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 (2003) 032301 Same side Away side Sample of correlation Function: • Jet Fragmentation (near side) multiplicity • Jet quenching (away side) • Momentum conservation (away side) • Other particle production mechanism • Coalescence, recombination

  7. Nicolas Borghini et al. Phys. Rev. C 62, 034902(2000). Same Side Data Analysis Methods: Back Side Background pp: Au + Au: Gaussian Fit of back side: Cosine Fit of back side (momentum balance): Parameters are compared for different fits for two different pT cuts as the function of centralities

  8. Λ +h (charged hadrons) correlations AuAu and pp 5-10% 10-30% 0-5% 30-50% 50-70%

  9. Λ +h correlations AuAu (cosine fit)

  12. AA/pp (Λ+h) 1.5<pT,trigger<3.0, 1.5<pT,asso<3.0 2.5<pT,trigger<4.0, 1.7<pT,asso<2.5 No pp reference Gaussian fit • Large AA/pp ratio for the same side • Trigger Bias? X N Wang, nucl-th/0405017 Cosine fit

  17. 1.5 GeV/c < pT,trig,pT,asso<3.0 GeV/c

  18. Summary: • We can measure identified particle correlations • For central collisions, large width(>π/2~1.6) of the back side indicates a momentum balance shape and collapse of the Jet structure.☺ • Same side AA/pp ratio appears to be large in the intermediate pT range Measurement of N could provide us information about how the jet get quenched inside the medium, what is the scare of particles interacted with the quenched jet. • Trigger particle species dependence: • comparable to PHENIX measurements • No significant particle species dependency • No strong centrality dependency, need further study on the systematic

  21. Momentum Balance measurement comparing to balancing over the large amount of particles by assuming α ~ 1.0

Notices that there is a clear back side signal for higher pT,triggervalues Fig. 13 Trigger PT In Fig.13 the Ccos fit values are compared to an estimate of the momentum conservation effect [6].

  23. Hence αcan be measured by studying the statistical pT fluctuations of the back side jet cone compared to inclusive background

  24. Uncorrelated backgrounds Seems works pretty well!!
