The Evolution of Correlation Functions from Low To High pT in PHENIX: From HBT To Jets
نویسنده
چکیده
The PHENIX Experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has performed a survey of momentum correlations ranging from 200 MeV/c to 7 GeV/c in √ sNN = 200 GeV p+p, d+Au, Au+Au, and √ sNN = 62 GeV Au+Au collisions. The correlations are measured separately for like-sign and unlike-sign pairs. Comparisons of the properties of the near-side peak amplitude and width as a function of centrality and transverse momentum for each collision species are presented and discussed.

Search for critical points by measuring spatial correlation lengths via multiplicity density fluctuations
The nature of phase boundaries in the QCD phase diagram has not been satisfactorily explored by experiments. Based on the Ginzburg-Landau free energy with a spatially inhomogeneous term as a function of a scalar order parameter, it is possible to determine spatial correlation lengths from measured two point correlation functions in general, where a spatially dependent multiplicity fluctuation f...
متن کاملCharge Correlation in Near Side Hadron - Hadron Jets at √ s NN = 200 GeV in PHENIX
In high energy heavy ion collisions at RHIC, the dihadron correlation function is known to be strongly modified by the medium. These modifications are reflected in changes in the pT spectrum, flavor composition, shape and yield of the jet. It has been shown[ 1] that there is a charge-asymmetry within jets that favors oppositely charged particle pairs. By splitting the correlation function by ch...
متن کاملFrom mach cone to reappeared jet: What do we learn from PHENIX results on non-identified jet correlation?
Abstract. High pT jets are known to be strongly modified by the dense, strongly interacting medium created in heavy-ion collisions. The jet signal, extracted from two particle ∆φ correlation, shows a systematic evolution of these modifications as function of pT and centrality. At intermediate pT , both near side and away side correlations are modified. But the modifications are much stronger at...
متن کاملProbing Cold and Hot, Dense Nuclear Media Via High-pT Jets with Di-hadron and γ-hadron Correlations at PHENIX
With the recent high statistics Au+Au and Cu+Cu runs at RHIC, it has become possible to systematically study jet properties in several different colliding systems with potentially different final state interactions. In this talk we present results from high-pT di-hadron and γ-hadron correlations from p+p, d+Au, Cu+Cu, and Au+Au collisions where jets in vacuum, cold nuclear matter, and hot, dens...
متن کاملMeasurement of high-pT hadrons at RHIC-PHENIX
Measurements from the RHIC experiments show a strong suppression in the yield of high-pT single hadrons and a clear reduction in strength of the di-jet signal in two-hadron azimuthal-angle correlation functions in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC. These measurements should provide direct information on the properties of the medium within which hard-scattered par-tons propagate. The PHENIX preli...
