Outline • • • Introduction Langevin Dynamics of Heavy Quarks Hydro + HQ Model Numerical Results Conclusions and Outlook
1. Introduction • Relativistic Heavy Ion Collision Light (m << T~200 Me. V) components (g, u, d, s) relativistic ideal hydrodynamics HQ g, u, d, s strongly coupled matter Heavy (M >> T~200 Me. V) components (c, b) long time scale not thermalized in fluid impurity Other impurities : J/Ψ (color singlet), Jet (too energetic)
2. Langevin Dynamics of Heavy Quarks <Energy loss of HQ> • Heavy Quarks in Medium Energy loss of heavy quarks 1. weak coupling (p. QCD) HQ q-hats > LQ q-hats indicates collision energy of HQ dominant mechanism low energy collision high energy radiation (Armesto ’ 06, Wicks ‘ 07) but poor convergence (Caron-Huot ‘ 08) 2. strong coupling (Ad. S/CFT) drag force (Gubser ’ 06, ’ 07, HKKKY ’ 06, Teaney ‘ 06) ,
Model of HQ in medium relativistic Langevin equation in the rest frame of matter assume isotropic noise the only input, dimensionless relaxation time of HQ 22 6. 7 2. 2 72 21 7. 2 (at T=210 Me. V)
3. Hydro + HQ Model • Flowchart 0 fm…. QGP 0. 6 fm… Little Bang Initial Condition (pp + Glauber) Brownian Motion Local temperature and flow T(x), u(x) Full 3 D hydrodynamics (Hirano ’ 06) Heavy Quark Spectra _ c(b)→D(B)→e- +νe+π etc Electron Spectra time Experiment (PHENIX, STAR ’ 07)
• Comments <decayed electron in pp> Initial condition <HQ in pp> available only spectral shape above p. T~3 Ge. V Reliable at high p. T No nuclear matter effects in initial condition No quark coalescence effects in hadronization Where to stop in coexisting phase at 1 st order P. T. 3 choices (no/half/full coexisting phase)
4. Numerical Results • Profile of HQ Diffusion 2 time scales : stay time and relaxation time stay time : ~3 -4 fm <relaxation times> 22 72 <stay times> 6. 7 21 2. 2 7. 2 Charm ~ not yet fully thermalized Bottom ~ not thermalized at all
• HQ Spectra Nuclear modification factor Large p. T, γ large momentum loss large suppression
Elliptic flow High p. T (almost) no anisotropy At low p. T, large γ large anisotropy
• Electron Spectra Bottom ratio At p. T above 3 Ge. V, bottom origin electrons dominate.
Nuclear modification factor
Elliptic flow Poor statistics for both simulation and experiment at high p. T. But at least consistent. (Still preliminary, PHENIX : v 2~0. 05 -0. 1 for p. T~3 -5 Ge. V) Quite Large v 2
5. Conclusions and Outlook • Heavy quark can be described by relativistic Langevin dynamics with a parameter predicted by Ad. S/CFT. • Prediction for heavy quark correlations. • Latest experimental data for v 2 seems to have larger elliptic flow. • Theoretically, heavy quark energy loss at strong coupling (based more on field theory) should be reconsidered.
