Hadrons in Heavy Ion Collisions
Rainer Fries
Proton/pion ratio
RAA
“Universal” hadronization in thermalized (low PT) and pure fragmentation (high PT) region.
Intermediate momentum region in heavy ion collisions (2-8 GeV): No kinetic equilibrium; Multi-particle dynamics; No microscopic
description of parton dynamics.
RHIC Strategy 2013 5
Can Hadronization Tell Us About QGP?
Example: Quark Number dependent phenomena
Usual interpretation: quark degrees of freedom were active in the collision.
Rainer Fries
RHIC Strategy 2013 6
Heavy Quark Sector I
Recombination forces heavy quarks to feel the collective flow.
Charm to D-meson coalescence in a recombination model with correct equilibrium limit.
Recombination rate ~ c+light quark elastic scattering rate near Tc.

Heavy Quark Sector II
Flavor effects in the heavy quark sector: Ds vs D
Changes in chemistry are often hadronization effects.

Baryon/meson ratios: • “jet”: smaller than
inclusive and similar to p+p• ridge: similar to inclusive

Recombination in Jet Showers
Rainer Fries
JET goal: jet shower Monte Carlo including medium-modified hadronization
Well-established hadronization models for vacuum shower Monte-Carlo’s Lund string fragmentation Cluster hadronization How to generalize to jets in a medium?
Recombination Challenge: get vacuum fragmentation right. Advantage: medium effects are straight forward to implement; does
well with heavy ion single particle spectra. Need event-by-event formalism; momentum and energy conservation
in each shower are important. Need to include space-time information.

Recombine Quarks
In absence of space-time information integrate out spatial coordinates in the Wigner functions.
Monte-Carlo implementation of recombination probabilities
Direct recombination produces hard spectra. Allow recombination into resonances with subsequent decay
Mesons: π, ρ, a1, K, K*, and K1 Baryons N, N’, Δ, and Δ’
Reconnect remnant quarks by short strings that fragment.

Event-By-Event Vacuum Fragmentation
Rainer Fries
Reproduction of vacuum fragmentation compares favorably to PYTHIA string fragmentation.
Lessons learnt: Resonances important. Event-by-event calculation important.

Shower-Thermal Recombination
Pions and protons at RHIC. Thermal-thermal added.
Baryon production clearly enhanced by shower-thermal recombination.

Recover Baryon Enhancement
Proton/pion ratio is enhanced by shower-thermal recombination.

RHIC Strategy 2013 17
Lessons So Far?
Hadronization effects in jets: too early to tell the full story
Extrapolating from heavy quarks: jet-thermal recombination adds a layer of diffusion and makes “hard” hadrons feel collective flow. Broadening? Larger v2?
Rainer Fries
RHIC Strategy 2013 18 Rainer Fries
Example 1: excess production of particles which are rare in the medium and rare in the probe sample
Example: photons Need enough yield to outshine other sources of Nrare.
Example 2: chemical equilibration of a rare probe particle
Example: strangeness at RHIC Coupling of jets (not equilibrated) to the equilibrated
medium should drive jets towards chemical equilibrium. Quark-gluon conversion proton/pion ratio

Conclusions
Chemistry: Need identified hadrons up to 8-10 GeV with good statistics.
Diffusion: out-of-cone energy/momentum in jet measurements near-side correlations of hadrons
