  1. System and Rapidity Dependence of Baryon/Meson Ratios at RHIC Eun-Joo Kim University of Kansas For the BRAHMS collaboration

  2. Outline • The BRAHMS experiment • p/p ratios for different centrality bins • p/p ratios for different systems • p/p ratios at different rapidities • Summary

  3. Broad RAnge Hadron Magnetic Spectrometers • AuAu, CuCu, pp sNN= 200 GeV • MRS at 90o (y=0) and • full FS data at 4o (h~3.2) • PID by TFW2, C4,RICH

  4. Particle Identification MRS TFW2 FS RICH C4 • TFW2 : p/K ~ 2.5 GeV/c, K/p ~ 4.0 GeV/c with 2s cut • C4 : p/K ~ 9 GeV/c • RICH : p/K ~ 25 GeV/c, p ~ 35 GeV/c

  5. Centrality dependent pbar/p- ratios • Increase from peripheral to central in AuAu at sNN = 200 GeV • Ratio for peripheral AuAu approaches to pp • Ratios at forward rapidity turn over at lower pT than midrapidity BRAHMS Preliminary • No Anti-Lambda • Feed-Down Correction! • Errors are statistical only… pp at y~0 : PHENIX preliminary

  6. p/p increases with system size + -

  7. Comparison of AuAu & CuCu pbar/p- ratios are similar for different collision systems, and for a comparable number of binary collisions at y~0 and h~3.2

  8. p/p ratios in CuCu collisions + + - - Centrality dependence for p/p+ ratios is stronger at h~3.2 than y~0, but pbar/p- shows only slight centrality dependence at both rapidities.

  9. p/p+ ratios vs. <Npart> in CuCu pp p/p+ ratio integrated over 1.5<pT<2.5 GeV/c at forward rapidity increase with centrality; smaller dependence seen at midrapidity

  10. Rapidity and <Npart> dependence Strong rapidity dependence Y=0 h~3.2 pp pp

  11. Recombination & Coalescence Recombination and parton coalescence model describe ratios at midrapidty and suggest radial flow

  12. <pT> vs. rapidity and centrality AuAu sNN= 200 GeV y~0 Point : BRAHMS AuAu Curve : 3D Hydro (Hirano) Histo : AMPT PRC72,014908(2005) • <pT> decrease with y : p ~ 10%, p ~ flat from y=0 to y~3 • AMPT and 3D-Hydro model under-predict <pT> • 3D-Hydro describe y-dependence qualitatively • with a single Tth value (Tth = 100 MeV, Tch = 170 MeV)

  13. 3D-Hydro Model for AuAu BRAHMS Preliminary - p/p+ enhanced at forward rapidity, mainly from projectile? - Still high - Cronin, recombination, or flow? - The hydro calculation shown does not consider baryon nor isospin chemical potentials: There is no rapidity dependence. - Particle ratio is fixed at chemical freezeout temperature PHENIX : PRC69,034909(2004)

  14. Summary • BRAHMS has studied the pT/centrality/rapidity/system dependence of the p/p ratios for AuAu, CuCu and pp - p/p ratios are enhanced in AA collisions compared to pp - No other system dependence is observed - p/p+ and pbar/p- ratios show similar interplay between soft and hard processes for different systems - However, there is strong rapidity dependence (baryo-chemical potential?) • (p/p ratio)/<Npart> at constant h independent of system
