Heavy Flavor Measurement using Single Electrons Workshop at RCNP
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
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
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. D0Kp). • Very challenging without measurement of displaced vertex. Workshop at RCNP
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 (p0eeg, heeg, 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
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.
