PHENIX measures open heavy flavor indirectly via semi-leptonic decays

Open Heavy Flavor Measurement in PHENIX

Measure spectrum of all electrons

Subtract photonic electrons using cocktail of known (measured) sources:

conversions, Dalitz decays of 0 and etc.

Additional subtraction of quarkonia contribution

Cross-check of photonic contribution by inserting converter

Electron Measurement in the PHENIX (up to Run 10)

Central Arms: hadrons, photons, electron 0.35 ≤  ≤ 0.35;

pe > 0.2 GeV/c;

charged particle tracking analysis using

DC and PC.Electron identification based on:

Ring Imaging Cerenkov detector (RICH);

Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMCal).

Forward rapidity arms: muons 1.2  ≤ | |  ≤ 2.4

pµ > 1.0 GeV/c

µ-Magnets and µ-Identifier steel absorb

hadrons, -rejection 

µ-Tracker reconstructs trajectories and

Open Heavy Flavor Measurement in p + p Collisions

PRL 97, 252002 (2006)Single electrons (|y| < 0.35)

PRD 76, 09002 (2007)Single muons (1.4 < y < 1.9)

Derived charm cross-section from single electrons: 567 ± 57 (stat) ± 224(sys) b Mid-rapidity measurement is in agreement with pQCD calculations Measurement at the forward rapidity agrees for pT > 3 GeV/c, where B/S is better

Open Heavy Flavor Measurement in Au + Au Collisions

PRL 98, 172301 (2007)Single electrons (|y| < 0.35)

Strong suppression in high pT

(pT > 3.0 GeV) shows large energy

loss and hence provides strong evidence for the coupling of heavy quarks to the produced medium.

PRL 98, 172301 (2007) Same method as in p + p Heavy flavor electrons from Au + Au Compared to Ncoll scaled p + p (FONLL x 1.71)

Heavy Flavor Hadron Energy Loss and Flow

Suppression is flat at high pT

Heavy quarks suppressed the same as light quarks, and they flow, but less.

Collective behavior is apparent in heavy-flavor electrons (v2 (HF) > 0); but however, it is lower than v2

of  0 for pT > 2 GeV/c.

The variety and precision of results keep expanding, revealing interesting features

High statistics measurement of J/ in AuAu in wide rapidity range

- Mid-rapidity J e+e-- Forward rapidity J/

Strong suppression of J/ is observed

- Consistent with the prediction that J/s are destroyed in deconfined matter

Surprisingly, the suppression is stronger at forward rapidity than in mid-rapidity

- J/ formation by recombination of charm pairs in deconfined matter?

Charm Cross-section in p+p collisions

STAR agrees with PHENIX (referring to STAR’s recent work)

Latest result from STAR agrees with PHENIX for pT > 2.5 GeV/c . This is good news

But

What about measurements at low pT (500 MeV/c < pT < 2.5 GeV/c)?

Within error bars, Nbin scaled is observed! Large systematic uncertainties Theory under predict

charm X-section: still an issue : STAR ~ 2 PHENIX

Upgrades Are Needed!

When physics motivation exist (separation of charm and beauty should allow for

unambiguous modeling of quark energy loss) and systematic errors dominates the

data, new experiment (detector upgrade) are called for.

Summary Large heavy flavor suppression in heavy ion collisions – why?

Significant heavy flavor elliptic flow

Large J suppression, but surprising rapidity dependence

Improve background rejection in semi-leptonic decay measurements

would allow systematic errors to be reduced

Separation of Charm/Beauty allows quark mass dependence to be

mapped out

PHENIX opens new era to study the properties of the medium:

- Measure Upsilon suppression (1S,2S,3S) at RHIC energy (Tinit ~ 350 MeV). LHC initial energy is ~ 500-600 MeV and so the screening length can be different.

- Light quark v2 seems to be similar at LHC. This lead some to conclude that /s of the QGP at LHC is only slightly different than that at RHIC. However, the picture can be different if probed by heavy flavor. (Light quark v2 is influenced in the later stage of space/time development. Heavy quark is more sensitive in the earlier stage)

- Very high statistics measurement of charm/bottom at low pT where medium effect can be most interesting. sPHENIX will have ~ 50B events per year, much higher statistics.

Production of heavy quark-antiquark pairs: cc (bb) dominated by gluon-gluon hard scattering

- sensitive to initial gluon density additional thermal production enhancement?

- sensitive to initial temperature

Propagation through dense medium energy loss or thermalization softening of spectra?

- sensitive to properties of the produced nuclear medium does charm flow?

- sensitive to collectivity on parton level

Quarkonia (J in dense medium suppression via color screening? enhancement via coalescence?

heavy quarks is a rich probe of the nuclear medium created in the hard initial collisions experience the whole collision history

study of yields & spectra in pp, dAu, and AuAu

Why is Heavy Flavor Interesting?
