  2. Physics Motivation • Search for the new State of Matter • (quark-gluon-plasma) and study its properties. • Leptonic Observables • Why do we want to measure leptonic observable? • Heavy flavor (Charm): Single Electrons (c  D  e + X) • Quarkonia: J/ e+e-, • Light vector mesons:   K+K-, e+e- , , also • Dielectron Continuum: • Low and Intermediate Mass Region • Photons: Direct (prompt and thermal) photons • via its conversions Pair wise observable Workshop at RCNP

  3. J/ measurement Workshop at RCNP

  4. Motivation of J/ measurement • Debye color screening will lead to a suppression of • charmonium production in heavy ion collisions. • one of the earliest probe of the QGP • Predictions of enhanced J/ • production at RHIC energy • from recombination • in final state interaction. • NA50 measured J/ • at SPS energy. They found • an anormalous suppression. • Systematic study is needed to • disentangle the compete effect. Workshop at RCNP

  5. PHENIX Experiment • Two central spectrometers • , e and hadrons • || < 0.35,  = /2  2 • Two fwd spectrometers •  • 1.2 < || < 2.4 EMCAL RICH BBC DC&PC Workshop at RCNP

  8. J/  in d+Au Nuclear Effects • Modification of the parton distribution functions: • Gluon shadowing -> reduction of production at low x. • 3 rapidity ranges in PHENIX probe different • momentum fraction of Au partons • South (y < -1.2) : large X2 (in gold) • Central (y ~ 0) : intermediate • North (y > 1.2) : small X2 (in gold) Predicted Gluon Shadowing in d+Au From Eskola, Kolhinen, Vogt Nucl.

  21. Heavy Flavor Measurement using Single Electrons Workshop at RCNP

  22. Motivation of Heavy flavor Measurement • Charm is produced through mainly gluon-gluon • fusion in heavy ion collisions • Sensitive to gluon density in initial stage of • the collisions • Charm is propagated through hot and dense • medium created in the collisions • Energy loss of charms via gluon radiation • (dead cone effect?, else…) • Charm can be produced thermally at very high • temperature • Sensitive to state of the matter • Charm measurements bring us an important baseline of J/ Workshop at RCNP

  23. Heavy flavor in p+p, d+Au and Au+Au • p + p measurement • Test pQCD calculation • Baseline measurement for d+Au and Au+Au • d + Au measurement • Normal nuclear effect • Cronin effect • Gluon shadowing • Au + Au measurement • Total yield • Expected to scale with binary collision • Spectral shape at higher pT • Study charm energy loss in dense medium • Charm Flow • V2 measurement  Sakai-san’s Talk Workshop at RCNP

  24. p+ Charm Measurement Indirect method: Measure leptons from semi-leptonic decays of charm. This method is used by PHENIX at RHIC Direct method: Reconstruction of D-meson (e.g. D0Kp). • Very challenging without measurement of displaced vertex. Workshop at RCNP

  25. Source of Electrons All electrons measured in experiment are EM force origin and Weak force origin Non-PHOTONIC signal • Charm decays • Bottom decays Background • Photon conversions : • p0,h,h’,w,fDalitz decays (p0eeg, heeg, etc) • Conversion of direct photons • Di-electron decays ofr,w,f • Thermal di-leptons • Kaon decays (weak decay) Most of the backgrounds are PHOTONIC PHOTONIC All back grounds should be subtracted to extract the signal Workshop at RCNP

  26. Photon Converter Extraction of Non-photonic Electrons (Heavy flavor Electrons) • Converter method • Comparison of electron yield • with and without the converter • allows to separate the photonic • and the non-photonic electrons. • Cocktail method • Light hadron cocktail. • Major source (0) is measured by the PHENIX spectra. • Other mesons are estimated by mt scaling assumption • and asymptotic ratios from lower energy data. • Photon conversion from material in PHENIX acceptance.
