p+p direct photon
Thermal Hint?Thermal Hint?
• For pT<3GeV/c, thermal photon contribution looks dominant
• However, recent p+p result needs to be considered– Factor of ~4 larger than NLO pQCD at 3GeV/c! (still within error, though)
• Smaller errors on real photon will help for making a conclusion.
NLO pQCD: L.E.Gordon and W. Vogelsang, PRD48(1993)3136

Photon HighlightsPhoton Highlights
• High pT (>6GeV/c ) photon yield is well described by NLO pQCD calculation
• Virtual photon measurement using very low mass dileptons improves error bars at low pT
• Hint of non-pQCD (thermal?) photons in central collisions
March 27, 2006 Andrew Glenn

Heavy QuarksHeavy Quarks
• Carry the information of early stage of collisions.– Charm quark is massive (even at RHIC energy).
– Creation takes place only at the beginning of collisions.
• How are heavy quarks are effected by the medium?

Quark Energy LossQuark Energy Loss
•What about heavy quarks ?•2001, proposed “dead cone” effect suggests smaller energy loss of charm •Recent theories propose energy loss of charm quark is similar to light quarks.(Armesto et al, PRD 71, 054027, 2005; M. Djordjevic et al., PRL 94, 112301, 2005.)

Open Charm Flow in Au+AuOpen Charm Flow in Au+Au
Theory:Greco, Ko, Rapp: PLB 595 (2004) 202
• Significant anisotropy is observed for heavy flavor electron.
• v2 has good agreement of charm flow assumption below pT < 2.0 GeV/c
• In high pT region (pT > 2 GeV/c), v2 is reduced. (b quark contribution?)
March 27, 2006 Andrew Glenn
17
Theory AsideTheory AsideIn a calculation by Teaney and Moore (hep-ph/0412346), they calculate the expected elliptic flow (v2) and transverse momentum modifications for different charm quark diffusion coefficients. The two effects go hand in hand.
Anything that increases the cross section for interactions will have this general effect.

• Trend of Cronin effect is consistent with lowerenergy results.• Observation of nuclear absorption and shadowing effect.
– Nuclear absorption at RHIC is weak (1-3mb)compared to lower energy results (SPS, FNAL)– Shadowing effect is weak
• A modest baseline measurement for A+A collisions. • Further statistics are needed for the detail study
of cold matter effects.
