Lecture IVa: jets Marco van Leeuwen, Utrecht University Lectures for Helmholtz School Feb/March 2011
Jet quenching event generators Analytical models BDMPS, ASW, GLV, AMY, HT: exact interference, but approximate treatment of kinematic limits (energy conservation) Monte-Carlo excellent tool to include kinematic limits; interference effects difficult • Py. Quench/Hydjet (Lokhtin et al) – Mostly phenomenological • q. PYTHIA (Armesto, Cunqueiro, Salgado) – BDMPS-based modified showering • JEWEL (Wiedemann and Zapp) – Start from elastic E-loss, trying to systematically implement LPM effecy • MARTINI (Schenke) – AMY-based, modular • Ya. JEM (Renk) – Medium-induced increase of virtuality MC generators are also an important tool for experimentalists 2
Jet RAA at RHIC M. Ploskon, STAR, QM 09 Jet RAA >> 0. 2 (hadron RAA) Jet finding recovers most of the energy loss measure of initial parton energy Some dependence on jet-algorithm? Under study… 3

Jet-hadron correlations Recoil peak width Experiment indicates: strong p. T-dependence of broadening Soft radiation at larger angle Large difference between broadening of number density vs energy density NB: no correction for trigger bias (jet energy), jet energy resolution (background fluctuations) 5
Comparison to q. Pythia: medium modified fragmentation These calculations: realistic path length, density distribution ALICE EMCal PPR, ar. Xiv: 1008. 0413 q. Pythia: if 0 RAA~0. 2, expect jet RAA ~0. 2 -0. 3 (R=0. 4) Hadron RAA small, strong interactions out-of-cone radiation Not seen in data 6
STAR vs PHENIX jet RAA PHENIX, Y-S Lai, HP 2010 STAR Au+Au: jet RAA ~ 1 k. T, anti-k. T, R=0. 4 M. Ploskon, STAR, QM 09 STAR Preliminary PHENIX Au+Au: jet RAA ~ 0. 6 Gaussian filter, s=0. 3 +’fake rejection’ Not clear whether STAR and PHENIX results are in agreement 7

Jets at LHC Centrality ATLAS, ar. Xiv: 1011. 6182 (PRL) Jet-energy asymmetry Large asymmetry seen for central events Energy losses: tens of Ge. V, ~ expected from BDMPS, GLV etc beyond kinematic reach at RHIC N. B. only measures reconstructed di-jets Does not show ‘lost’ jets Large effect on recoil: qualitatively consistent with RHIC jet IAA 11

Intermezzo: particle detectors and particle identification Tracking Momentum measurement Charged particles in magnetic field EM Calorimeter Energy measurement Showering of g, e (e -> eg, g-> ee) High-Z material e. g. Pb-Scintillator, Pb-glass, Pb. WO crystals, Pb-LAr, W-Si sandwich Muon detection Charged particle tracking in magnetic field Hadron Calorimeter Energy measurement Showering of hadrons h → 0 → gg Need large total mass (e. g. big piece iron with scintillators) ‘Standard’ high-energy physics detector stack Main goal: measure all particles/energy flow (except n) 14
PID in HEP detectors Identify hadrons/leptons/photons by signature in detectors EMCal tracker HCal muon system Charged hadron (p, K, ) Neutral hadron (n, K 0 L) electrons photons muons Note: large expense for muons (EW probe, < 1 % of primary tracks in QCD event) neutral hadrons (~5% in QCD event) HI experiments normally do without HCal and with limited muon capability 15

E/dx and TOF are basic features of most Heavy-Ion detectors 19
Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) Ring reconstruction Cherenkov angle depends on index of refraction tunable Advantage: RICH can be optimised for large momentum Not so easy with high track densities 20
STAR and PHENIX at RHIC PHENIX STAR Large acceptance at mid-rapidity: TPC tracking (coarse) EMCal Some forward Calorimeters PID: TPC-d. E/dx, TOF General purpose detector PHENIX Central tracking/calo arms (partial coverage, finely segmented calo) Forward muon arms PID: TOF, RICH Focus on rare probes (electrons/photons) (PHOBOS, BRAHMS even more specialised) 21

Belmont, QM 09 Fries, Muller et al Hwa, Yang et al fragmenting parton: ph = z p, z<1 recombining partons: p 1+p 2=ph Recombination of thermal (‘bulk’) partons produces baryons at larger p. T Meson p. T=2 p. T, parton Baryon p. T=3 p. T, parton Recombination enhances baryon/meson ratio Note also: v 2 scaling Hot matter 24
Near-side ‘Ridge’ trigger d+Au, 200 Ge. V Au+Au 0 -10% 3 < pt, trigger < 4 Ge. V pt, assoc. > 2 Ge. V d+Au: ‘jet’-peak, symmetric in f, STAR preliminary Au+Au: extra correlation strength at large ‘Ridge’ Unexpected – what can it be? 25
Mechanisms for ridge formation Three categories Jet broadening Long. flow Gluons from fragmentation/energy loss couple to longitudinal flow Medium response Long. flow Trigger effect Long. flow Extra yield due to medium heating/drag or propagating parton Trigger selects existing structure in the medium (underlying event, color flux tubes) + ‘new’ suggestion: v 3 Different scenarios suggest different behaviour, e. g. multiplicity, p. T-dependence, extent, baryon content 26

P associated l, et a 06 QM `Ridge’: associated yield at large , small f trigger Weak dependence of ridge yield on p. T, trig Relative contribution reduces with p. T, trig Ridge softer than jet – medium response? 27
Ridge – shape Projection provides more quantitative info Clearly 2 shapes: jet-like + ridge Ridge very broad in , almost independent in acceptance Also note: ridge yield ~ independent of pt, trig 28
Jet-peak shape Pt, trig > 4 Ge. V, jet-like peak symmetric in , and width similar to d+Au (no medium) Jet-like peak unmodified (like in high-p. T correlations, lect II) 29
Associated spectra jet, ridge Jet-like spectra similar in d+Au and Au+Au Ridge softer than jet – Different production mechanism? 30

T, parton Meson p. T=2 p. T, parton Hot matter Hard parton No jet structure/associated yield Expect reduced associated yield with baryon triggers 3 < p. T < 4 Ge. V (Hwa, Yang) Expect large baryon/meson ratio associated with high-p. T trigger 31
Au+Au: Baryon enhancement p+p, d+Au: B/M 0. 3 p. Ttrig > 4. 0 Ge. V/c 2. 0 < p. TAssoc < p. Ttrig C. Suarez et al, QM 08 Inclusive spectra p+p / ++ - Associated baryon/meson ratios Associated yields Ridge (large Dh): Baryon enhancement Jet (small Dh) B/M 0. 3 Baryon/meson ratio in ridge close to Au+Au inclusive, in jet close to p+p Different production mechanisms for ridge and jet? 32
Ridge summary • Most notable features: – – – Ridge much broader than jet in Jet-like peak similar to d+Au in shape and yield Ridge yield ~ independent of pttrig Ridge spectrum softer than jet p/ ratio in ridge similar to bulk, lower in jet Strongly suggest different production mechanisms for ridge and jet However, the ridge is correlated with jets: causation, or trigger-bias (coincidence? ) 33

Horner, M. van Leeuwen, et al Low p. Ttrig: broad shape, two peaks High p. Ttrig: broad shape, single peak Fragmentation becomes ‘cleaner’ as p. Ttrig goes up Suggests kinematic effect? 35
Shockwave/Mach Cone Mach-cone/shockwave in the QGP? Gyulassy et al ar. Xiv: 0807. 2235 Exciting possibility! T. Renk, J. Ruppert Proves that QGP is really ‘bulk matter’ Measure speed of sound? B. Betz, QM 09, PRC 79, 034902 Are more mundane possibilities ruled out? – Not clear yet 36

Final note Hard probes of the QCD medium: Two important aspects: – Validate understanding of in-medium fragmentation – Determine medium properties To test understanding, need fewer unknowns than measurements - Light quark energy loss - Heavy quark energy loss - Inclusive vs di-hadrons - Azimuthal modulation (RAA vs rplane, v 2) - Jet-finding Need coherent picture (and understanding exceptions) before we can use energy loss as a tool 43

T’ case (deflected jets) Two classes of events: Background level 2 -particle correlations measure event-average – Not sensitive to event-to-event changes in structure Next slides: simplistic simulation to illustrate 3 -particle methods and background 48
