  3. PHOBOS Highlights • d+Au & p+p physics • Multiplicity • Inclusive Spectra • PID • Multiparticle Physics in Au+Au

  4. PHOBOS 2003 TOF & SpecTrig:C. Henderson Trigger & Centrality:R. HollisA. Iordanova PCAL:C. Reed Check out our student posters! Several crucial upgrades for d+Au

  5. Charged-Particle Multiplicities in p+p & d+Au

  6. Minimum-bias d+Au Predictions as of Oct. 2003 PHOBOS nucl-ex/0311009 See R. Nouicer’s talk

  7. Centrality Dependence of d+Au Data vs. AMPT PHOBOS Preliminary p+p poster by J. Sagerer

  8. Participant Scaling? • Multiplicity extrapolatedto 4p • Relative to p+p multiplicity at same energy, scales with Npart/2 • No modification with • Beam energy • Nuclear thickness

  9. Is Npart Fundamental? Expectations:“stopping” in d direction“cascading” in Au direction Why do they add up toNpart scaling so robustly? Same effect in Au+Au “Long-range” correlation? nucl-ex/0311009

  10. (p)d+Au in Different Frames As with Au+Au, “limiting fragmentation region” grows with energy. Shape appears to be constrained by lower-energy p+A data.Surprising over 1.5 orders of magnitude in collision energy.

  11. Can we build Au+Au with p+p/d+Au? PHOBOS 200 GeV Fundamental differencebetween p+p / d+Au & Au+Au? Au+Au nucl-ex/0301017d+Au & p+p preliminary

  13. Forward Multiparticle Physics in Au+Au h 0 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 4p multiplicity measurements show long-range correlation Long-Rangevs.Short-Rangeeffects • Fluctuations & Correlations • HBT Correlations • Azimuthal asymmetries

  14. Forward-Backward Correlations PHOBOS study for Au+Au: • K. Wozniak talk • Correlations consistent w/ UA5 • Weak rapidity dependence from 1<|h|<3 • UA5 p+p: 2-particle clusters explain • Short-range correlations in h • FB correlations UA5 PLB123:361 (1983) PHOBOS Au+Au h 0 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5

  15. Longitudinal Dynamics with HBT h 0 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 See talk by B. Holzman, poster by C.M.Kuo Particles at a givenrapidity are correlatedwith a sourceat the same rapidity Similar to FB result:correlations arelocal in rapidity.

  18. Directed Flow vs. Energy Dramatic change of directed flow near h=0

  19. “Limiting Fragmentation” of v1 PRL91 (2003), Poster by B. Back 19.6 GeV 200 GeV 130 GeV PHOBOS Au+Au Preliminary Similar directed flow relative to beam rapidity

  22. Identified Particles in d+Au

  23. Ratios with dE/dx PID A “classic” PHOBOS measurement: Two charge signs,two bending directions… …but now we have p+p d+Au Au+Au

  24. Identified Particle Ratios Poster by A. Bickley 200GeV d+Au: nucl-ex/0309013 Au+Au: PRC-R67 (2003) p+p  d+Au : No modification (cf. multiplicity) Au+Au: Additional net-baryons near h=0

  26. Particle Ratios at High-pT p p d+Au 200 GeV Main difference between p and p is overall yield. Spectral shape only slightly modified vs. pT

  27. TOF PID Spectra d+Au Pending weak-decay correction

  28. mT Scaling in d+Au and Au+Au Au+Au 200 GeV 20% normalizationat 2 GeV Subm. to PRL nucl-ex/0401006 PossiblemT scalingin d+Au(pendingweak corr.)

  31. Spectra in d+Au for h>0 See poster by J. Kane Systematic decrease in Rd+Au with increasing h Saturation of ratio also occurs at a lower pT

  32. h-Dependence of Rd+Au Monotonic evolution from mid-rapidity to forward rapidities.BRAHMS data is a continuation of trends starting at h=0

  33. The Landscape of Particle Production SppS RHIC FNAL SPS AGS • Multiplicity measurements • Npart scaling & limiting fragmentation • Long range correlations in h ? • Forward Multiparticle Physics in Au+Au • FB & HBT show effects local in h for |h|<3 • First measurement of directed flow vs. h & s • Identified Particle Spectra in d+Au • PID Spectra in d+Au, Au+Au for Run-4 • Proton and antiproton spectra similar • Inclusive d+Au Charged Spectra vs. h • Strong h dependence interpolates between h=0 and forward h
