  3. 1-1. Quark Gluon Plasma Is there an end in the size of the matter? Quark Gluon Plasma -> The quark and the gluon move freely in a large volume. -> QGP formed under high temperature and energy density. Heavy Ion Collision Experiment -> High temperature and high density necessary for generating QGP is produced by the high energy heavy ion collisions. Kentaro Miki

  4. 1-2. Heavy Ion Collision Experiment In order to provide the QGP state on the ground, Au nucleus is collided at sNN = 200 GeV by the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at BNL. Critical temperature / energy density by Lattice QCD Tc ~ 170 MeV c ~ 1.2 GeV/fm3 Kentaro Miki

  5. 1-3. Electro Magnetic Particles Electro magnetic particles are the powerful probes to the study property of QGP since they do not interaction strongly with any other particles and thus can carry out information on the states where they are emitted. Photons are emitted from all stage of collisions. Cartoon from Dinesh K. Srivastava, Quark Matter 2008 Kentaro Miki

  6. 1-4. Production Process Direct photon production process in p+p collisions process1 (Annihilation + Compton Scattering) process2 (Fragmentation) parton distribution function (PDF) process1 process2 fragmentation function (PDF) Annihilation + Compton fragment Isolated direct photon cut : 0.1*E > Econe(R=0.5) Isolation cut can reduce the bremmstrahlung photons Kentaro Miki

  7. All NLO-pQCD QGP-Thermal Jet-photon 1-5. Ratio of Photons High pT direct photons are produced in the initial stage. Thermal radiation are emitted in the low pT region. thermal window -> 1~3 GeV/c prompt photon window -> 6~ GeV/c High pT direct photons are well described by NLO-pQCD calculation. Phys. Rev., C69:014903(2004) Kentaro Miki

  8. 1-6. High pT Direct Photon Yield NLO-pQCD calculation well described the photon data of p+p collisions in the world experiment. Blue line: Ncoll scaled p+p cross section High pT Photon yield in Au+Au is also well explained by NLO-pQCD. Kentaro Miki

  9. 1-7. Nuclear Modification Factor Non jet quench on the Direct photon Probe of isospin effect in high pT ? -> difference of quark charge between neutrons and photons -> yield of photons from p+p, p+n and n+n should have different value. -> The difference of photon yield from Au+Au and p+p would be appeared in RAA of direct photon. pT scaled by 62.4/200 (xT scaling inspired) Kentaro Miki

  12. 2-1. Azimuthal Anisotropy The collision participation part in the early stage has spatial anisotropy. Pressure gradient is the largest in the shortest direction of the ellipsoid. Emitted particles reflect initial spatial anisotropy. -Elliptic flow (v2) is defined by the 2nd coefficient of Fourier expansion  : azimuthal angle of particles  : azimuthal angle of reaction plane Kentaro Miki
