  16. Discussion Why we do not see fluctuations reflecting QGP to hadronic phase transition - One possibility is dissipation of fluctuations Is Relaxation > hadronic This leads to the issue of acceptance needed to measure the primordial fluctuations ymin > ycoll (mean change in rapidity due to collisions) ~ (diffusion coefficient) free (mean free time) M.A. Aziz et al, PRC 70, 034905 (2004) E.V. Shuryak et al, PRC 63, 064903 (2001) B. Mohanty et al, PRC 67, 024904 (2003) What is the expectation for a cross-over phase transition ?

  17. If one observes a difference between NL and NR clear indication of parity violations But how do we experimentally distinguish L.H and R.H quarks (we detect hadrons) Polarization in magnetic field ? For finite volume : Charge difference in upper and lower hemisphere Chiral Magnetic Effect Topological structure of QCD vacuum -- Parity violations in strong interactions Assume quark are mass less : (Helicity/Chirality) R.H quarks & anti-quarks : s and p same direction L.H. quarks & anti-quarks : s and p opposite direction Mass less quarks can change chirality by interacting with gluons. Axial Ward Identity relates chirality to properties (topology) of gluon fields. D.E. Kharzeev et al, NPA 803, 227 (2008) u : Positive charge d : negative charge N L,R : total number of Left/Right handed q+qbar of a particular flavour QM09 : D. Kharzeev

  18. Parity even Physical background QM09 : S. Voloshin Charge asymmetry observed in STAR experiment. Investigations so far indicate they could only be consistent with parity violation effects in strong interactions. De-confined phase needed Chirally symmetric phase needed K. Fukushima et al, PRD 78, 074033 (2008) STARPreliminary Chiral Magnetic Effect Topological structure of QCD vacuum -- Parity violations in strong interactions. Heavy ion collisions : Possibly we have produced a de-confined quark-gluon matter. Large magnetic field in the direction of angular momentum. Charge separation can take place along this direction. Angular momentum is perpendicular to reaction plane. Look for charge asymmetries. S. Voloshin PRC 70, 057901 (2004)

  32. Part - 3 New Phase of QCD New Experimental Programs

  33. New Phase of Matter in Large Colour Limit In the limit of large number of colors (Nc) There could exist three phase of matter Confined phase De-confined phase Quarkyonic phase Matter has and p that of a gas of quarks yet confined.

  34. Looking for onset of various observations New Program : Explore QCD phase diagram Pb+Pb 17.3 GeV Au+Au 200 GeV PHENIX : PRL 101, 232301 (2008) Jet quenching WA98 : PRL 100, 242301 (2008) Partonic collectivity Baryon-meson difference meson will play a crucial role QM09 : S. Shi STARPreliminary QM09 : S. Voloshin Chiral Magnetic effect

  35. Cross over QCD critical point QGP 1st order Hadrons R.V. Gavai and S. Gupta, Phys.Rev.D71:114014,2005 New Program : Look for QCD critical point At RHIC Most lattice calculation predicts critical point B > 160 MeV Current studies at RHIC probes B ~ 14 -60 MeV Need a beam energy scan program - but fixed target experiments were there .. The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands but seeing with new eyes. -- Marcel Proust, French novelist, 1871-1922.

  36. RHIC Critical Point Search Program - Advantage Hadron Mass 200 GeV Beam Energy 62.4 GeV 9.2 GeV Uniform acceptance for different particle species and for different beam energies in the same experimental setup(advantage over fixed traget expt.)

  37. RHIC Critical Point Search Program - Advantage G. Roland Collider experiment : Variation of particle density with beam energy slower. Occupancy in detectors reasonable compared to fixed target experiments at similar collision energy

  38. RHIC - Collider Demonstrated Capabilities All setup worked very well with RF harmonic number 366 Defocusing sextupole reversal and octupole improved blue lifetime by factor 4 ~ 50-60% injection efficiency STAR collisions about 13h after 1st beam and PHENIX about 24h after 1st beam Experiment useful event rates 0.7-1Hz with 56 bunches. Maximum luminosity 3.5 1023 cm-2s-1 Average luminosity 1.2 1023 cm-2 s-1 Factor of 3 increase in luminosity easily achievable

  39. STAR Preliminary RHIC - Experiments Demonstrated Capabilities Results with only 3000 events ! QM09 : L. Kumar These results from the lowest beam energy collisions at RHIC demonstrate experiment’s readiness to take up the proposed Beam Energy Scan Program. Large and uniform acceptance for all beam energies in a collider set up, excellent particle identification (TPC+TOF) and higher statistics will provide ideal data to experimentally measure fluctuations/Kurtosis to locate QCD critical point

  40. RHIC Critical Point Search - Future Plans Experiments have proposed the following plan May a good idea to start with energies common to both experiments Run Number 9071097 First paper from RHIC was based on ~ few thousand events; PHOBOS : PRL 85 (2000) 3100 “The measurements shown here represent the first step toward the development of a full picture of the dynamical evolution of nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC energies.” The results shown at QM2009 from RHIC low energy test running : “These measurements shown here could become the first step towards a detailed study of the QCD phase diagram at RHIC”

  41. What is the difference vs. NA49 ? Experimental set up : New spectator calorimeter for centrality selection Forward Time-Of-Flight Beam pipe TPC readout Physics Program : Studying QCD Critical Point and Onset of various observations with varying colliding ion size, collision centrality and having a proper p+p baseline QM09 : A. Laszlo New Program : SPS - SHINE A significant difference between freeze-out and transition temperature can lead to dilution of the signatures of the QCD critical point. One way address this is to vary system size/colliding ion size. F. Becattini et al., PRC 73, 044905

  42. New Program : FAIR - CBM Claudia Hoehne • CBM at SIS 300 will start in 2017 • 10-45A GeV beam energy, high availability of beam (order of 10 weeks per year), interaction rates up to 10 MHz • “CBM light” at SIS 100 in 2015 Au beam up to 11A GeV, p beam up to 30 GeV (multistrange hyperons, charm production in pA) • Assume 10 weeks beam time, 25A Gev Au+Au (minbias), no trigger, 25 kHz interaction (and storage) rate: • “unlimited statistics” of bulk observables, e.g. ~1010-11 kaons, 1010Λ • low-mass di-electrons with high statistics, 106 -mesons (each) • multistrange hyperons with high statistics, 108, 106 QM09 : C. Höhne, J. Heuser High luminosity, rare probes, higher B reach

  43. Current Status Lattice and other QCD based models : B = 0 - Cross-over TC ~ 170-195 MeV B > 160 MeV - QCD critical point Experiments : See distinct signatures that relevant d.o.f are quark and gluons [Tinitial(direct photons) > TC(Lattice)] No signatures of QCD critical point established, possible hints at SPS. New distinct signatures proposed by Lattice and QCD based model calculations. Future program : Exploring the QCD phase diagram needs to be vigorously pursued to know properties of basic constituents of matter under extreme conditions.

  44. Future With the starting of LHC (B~ 0) - we have unique opportunity to understand the properties of matter governed by quark-gluon degrees of freedom at unprecedented initial temperatures achieved in the collisions. To make the QCD phase diagram a reality equal attention needs to be given to high baryon density region. These two complementary programs will make our understanding clearer on • characterization of quark-gluon matter at varying baryon density • finding the QCD critical point and • locating the QCD phase boundary
