Results
Centrality Determination • Select the “same” regions at 200 and 19. 6 Ge. V • Have two centrality methods at each energy – One at mid-rapidity – One away from mid-rapidity • Mechanism for comparing ‘like’ regions to see systematic effects • Results presented here – for a) and c) Regions are ‘matched’ according to the ratio of beam rapidities (a) with (c) (b) with (d)
Measured pseudorapidity density per participant pair as a function of <Npart> • ‘Geometry-normalized’ multiplicity in Au-Au collisions higher than corresponding values for inelastic • Percentile cross-section – 0 -50% for 200 Ge. V – 0 -40% for 19. 6 Ge. V 90 % C. L. 200 Ge. V (measured UA 5) 19. 6 Ge. V (interpolated ISR)
Measured pseudorapidity density per participant pair as a function of <Npart> • Model predictions – Hijing • does not follow data trend – Saturation Model (KLN) Phys. Lett. B 523 79 (2001) ar. Xiv: hep-ph/0111315 • better agreement 90 % C. L.
Ratio of the two data sets – systematic errors • Most of the systematic errors on the individual measurements at the two energies will cancel in the ratio – Analyses performed with the same method – Detector – Centrality determination • Percentile cross-section used in ratio – top 40% • Errors are estimated as 1 -s.
Ratio of the two data sets – systematic and statistical errors • Final 1 -s systematic and statistical error – Centrality dependent • central events 3% • mid-central events 7%
Ratio for the data sets • Data ratio – Au+Au 1 (fixed fraction of cross-section) 1 -s errors
Ratio for the data sets • Data ratio – Au+Au 1 (fixed fraction of cross-section) • No centrality (geometry) dependence • R = 2. 03 ± 0. 02 ± 0. 05 (simple scale-factor between 19. 6 and 200 Ge. V) 1 -s errors
Ratio for the data sets • Data ratio – Au+Au 1 (fixed fraction of cross-section) • No centrality dependence • R = 2. 03 ± 0. 02 ± 0. 05 – Au+Au 2 (fixed <Npart>) • No centrality dependence 1 -s errors
Ratio for the data sets • Models – Hijing • increase in mid-rapidity with centrality – Saturation Model (KLN) • flat centrality dependence as in data 1 -s errors Phys. Rev. C 70, 021902(R)(2004)

Other ‘Geometry Scaling’ observations in • Charged hadron p. T spectra – Ratio of yield for 200 and 62. 4 Ge. V is centrality independent for all measured p. T bins
Conclusions • We measured charged-particle pseudorapidity density at mid-rapidity for Au-Au collisions at 200 and 19. 6 Ge. V – Centrality, derived from different h-regions for each of the two Au -Au collision energies, yield consistent results – An increase in particle production per participant pair for Au-Au compared to the corresponding values for collisions – The ratio of the measured yields for the top 40% in the cross section gives a simple scaling factor between the two energies
