  3. In-Medium Modification of the PQCD Cross Sections • The way to understand medium effects on hadron cross sections in the framework of PQCD • is to follow the history of a parton from the IS nucleon wave function (PDF) to the FS hadron • wave function (FF) Scattering in the medium Range of the interaction in matter QGP: Cold nuclear matter: Calculated in the Born approximation

  4. Understanding the LPM Effect • Bremsstrahlung is the most efficient way to lose energy since it carries a fraction of the energy LPM = Landau- Pomeranchuk-Migdal • Formation time: coherence effects • Acceleration: radiation • Onset of coherence • Full coherence

  5. Building up Multiple Scattering Approximations that allow to treat many scatterings: Double Born scattering Single Born scattering

  6. Momentum transfers Number of scatterings Color current propagators Coherence phases (LPM effect) + + Medium-InducedRadiation in the Final State • Includes interference with the radiation from hard scattering M.Gyulassy,P.Levai,I.V., Nucl.Phys.B 594 (2001)

  10. Tomographic Summary LHC SPS RHIC F.Karsch, Nucl.Phys.A698 (2002) D. d’Enterria, Eur.Phys.J C (2005)

  11. Transport Coefficients in Thermalized QGP • Experimental: Bjorken expansion • Theoretical: Gluon dominated plasma • Energy density • Transport coefficients (not a good measure for expanding medium) • Define the average for Bjorken

  12. New Directions for Energy Loss Calculations • One possible discussion Provide simulations including the geometry, combination of elastic and radiative E-loss, jet topologies … • A new direction: energy loss in cold nuclear matter, initial state • It is a challenging theoretical • problem that has not been solved • (you will see the solution) • Of immediate relevance to pQCD • effects in cold nuclear matter p+A • High twist shadowing only • Initial state energy loss + HTS Implementation of initial state E-loss S.S.Adler et al., nucl-ex/0603017

  13. High Twist Shadowing in DIS Final state coherent scattering • Dynamical parton mass (QED analogy): x = energy = mass J.W.Qiu, I.V., Phys.Rev.Lett. 93 (2004)

  14. Cold Nuclear Matter Energy Loss • Shadowing parameterizations: • (not) • Dynamical calculations of high • twist shadowing: (not) • Energy loss: in combination • with HTS (yes) T.Alber et al., E.Phys.J.C 2 (1998) • Circular arguments should be avoided • Nigh statistics 200 GeV p+A measurements will certainly reduce error • bars, however … • Most useful measurement – low energy p+A run (only at RHIC II)

  15. Medium-InducedRadiation in the Initial State Asymptotic Asymptotic Large Q2 • Bertsch-Gunion case with interference • Realistic initial state medium induced radiation I.V. in preparation

  16. Energy Loss to First Order in Opacity • Bertsch-Gunion Energy Loss Qualitatively • Initial-State Energy Loss New • Final-State Energy Loss Old

  17. Numerical Results For Quark Energy Loss • Initial state E-loss is much smaller than • the incoherent Bertsch-Gunion limit At any order in opacity we require • Energetic quark jets can easily lose 20-30% • of their energy, gluon jetsx • Initial state E-loss is much larger than • final state energy loss in cold nuclei • Coherence effects lead to cancellation of • the medium-induced radiation M.Djordgevic, M.Gyulassy, Nucl.Phys.A (2004) Radiation intensity Fractional energy loss

  18. Path Length Dependence of E-Loss • Bertsch-Gunion – linear dependence on L by definition • Final state E-loss – approaches quadratic dependence on L, important for • the centrality dependence and elliptic flow • Initial state E-loss – approaches linear dependence on L, important for the • centrality dependence in p+A reactions

  19. pQCD Calculations of Heavy Quarks Schematic NLO and NNL LO, NLO, NNLO expansion LL, NLL, NNLL expansion m/pT, (m/pT)2 power corrections Will return to power corrections • The new scale, mass, implies large • logarithms, but … • The contribution of logarithms is small in • measurable pT ranges • The quarks are treated as “heavy” – in the fixed • order calculation. Implies that NLO generates • the PDF for charm and bottom (mostly) M.Cacciari, P.Nason, JHEP 9805 (1998)

  20. Phenomenological Results Comparison to the Tevatron data Comparison to the RHIC data Scales: R.Vogt et al., Phys.Rev.Lett.95 (2005) M.Cacciari, P.Nason, JHEP 0309 (2003) • Description of open charm at the Tevatron is within uncertainties but not perfect • Residual large scale uncertainties – should be careful with consistent choices • At RHIC perturbative calculations under predict the data by factor of 2 – 4. Whether • it is experimental systematic, incomplete theory or both – open question

  21. Numerical Results and Partonic Sub-Processes Partonic sub-processes FFs: Braaten et al., Phys.Rev.D51 (1995) PDFs: CTEQ 6.1 LO, J.Pumplin et al., JHEP 207 (2002) • Meaningful K-factors (otherwise K>4) • Anti-correlation between K and the • hardness of fragmentation r • If (LO,c-PDF) ~(NLO,no c-PDF) what are • the corrections from (NLO,c-PDF)?

  22. D (B) meson D (B) meson “Few” hadrons “Many” soft hadrons Hadron Composition of C (B) Triggered Jets Possibility for new measurements of heavy flavor production at RHIC • Can clarify the underlying hard scattering • processes and open charm production • mechanisms • Can constrain the hardness of D and B • meson fragmentation Robust

  23. HTS for Light Hadrons and Open Charm Single inclusive particles Away-side correlations • Very similar dynamical shadowing • for light hadrons and heavy quarks • Insufficient to explain the forward • rapidity data • Single and double inclusive cross • sections are similarly suppressed I.V., T.Goldman, M.B.Johnson, J.W.Qiu, hep-ph/0605200 J.W.Qiu, I.V., Phys.Lett.B632 (2006)

  24. Energy Loss and High Twist Shadowing Double inclusive yields (away-side) Single inclusive particles I.V., T.Goldman, M.B.Johnson, J.W.Qiu, hep-ph/0605200 • Main difference is much more pT independent suppression as compared to high twist • shadowing • Very similar e-loss effects for light hadron and heavy quark spectra • Single and double inclusive cross sections are similarly suppressed Same

  25. Effects of Medium-Induced Radiation I.V., Phys.Lett.B630 (2005) • Cancellation of collinear radiation – large angle soft gluons and • correspondingly soft hadrons • Beyond the cancellation region - well defined power • dependence • The importance – hard scattering has the • same power dependence

  26. Phenomenological Implications Correlated! PHENIX Collaboration, Phys.Rev.Lett. (2005) • Suppression at forward rapidity – from energy loss of the incoming partons • Enhancement at backward rapidity – comes from the redistribution of the lost • energy • Consistent pQCD code is still to be developed

  27. Conclusions • In-medim interactions can be understood following the history of a jet in a hard scatter: • Radiative energy loss in the QGP: •  Predicted supession for Cu+Cu versus centrality and pT •  QGP suppression is consistent with perturbative interaction of jets • in the medium • Coherent final state interactions: •  Shadowing is dynamically generated and arises from the final state •  Shadowing for D mesons and light pions is similar • Initial state interactions: •  Transverse momentum diffusion and Cronin effect •  Energy loss and rapidity asymmetry in p+A – new theoretical results • Modification of di-jets: •  Gluon feedback is important for di-hadrons at large angle •  Flow leads to deflection of the jet+gluons, so be exp. determined

  32. Process Dependence of Power Corrections (For example forward rapidity) Suppression ( ) • The function F(xb) contains the small xb dependence (For example DY) Enhancement ( ) • Power corrections are process dependent and not separable in PDFs and FFs S.Brodsky et al, Phys.Rev.D65 (2002) • Similar process dependence in single spin asymmetries S.Brodsky et al, Phys.Lett.B530 (2002) • Shadowing is dynamically generated in the hadronic collision
