THINC Update Phenix EC Meeting 5/14/98 R. Seto
Ames THINC Session • INT update - many folks attended INT workshops- I see this as a VERY good thing • 30 minuite summary of what we have learned in 3 10 minuite talks (dicated by who went)- perhaps • hadrons - HBT, spectra etc • leptons/photons, chiral restoration - high B, high T, pseudoscalars, J/,… • other - nature of phase transition, hard probles, DCC’s, oddballs… +” what it will take to say we have seen the QGP” • Main part -focus on Day-1 - global variables • it was thought was that event generators was a way to get a handle on global variables • Speakers • Y. Pang - overview + cascade models (conf) • B. Schlei - Hydrodynamical models (conf) • 1-more? Kinder-Geiger, Miklos, XN Wang? • Partonic models • I have NOT asked some PHENIX person to cover global measurements since I want to be careful about overlap with the working groups.(also time) -should I? • I will (have) asked folks to also cover the more general question of dN/dy, Et etc
Web Pages • Just getting started - Please be patient. Everyone is busy... • Have asked folks to add tutorials on various subjects as well as papers etc • (Sean had already started this to some extent) • We will have a welcome section (eventually) with info for non-physicists • I have asked the INT attendees to write up summaries and will assemble these into an INT overview - • One interesting topic covered periodically at INT is the “what we need to say we have seen the Plasma” - I would like to have this as an ongoing updated section
Other • PHENIX “U” - idea is still around - do we want to do it? How many students will be around? • should NOT duplicate RHIC school- it should be on a much more pedantic level for students • perhaps bi-weekly lectures w/ notes • starting with basics like - “what is rapidity, or what is an invariant cross section” (I might not attend) • …. Lots of stuff in between p-A physics etc.. • to things like basics of the chiral symmetry restoration • lattice QCD (I might attend!) • QCD phase transitions and the early universe/in stars • I would tap famous professors and scientists for this • Bill Z, Glenn Y, Sam A, Mike T, Mike M.,Barbara J, … Mike Bennet, Jamie N., Marzia R. • may be worth extending this to • how does the phenix timing system work?, or tell me about root…., or about drift chambers… • Relationship with theorists?? • Initiative to seed universities • want a sense in theoretical community that they are welcome
