RHIC: √s=200 GeV p+p
 Polarized p+p collisions at RHIC are used to investigate the spin
structure of the proton
 Unpolarized measurements are a crucial part of the RHIC program
 Inclusive hadron and jet cross section
measurements at RHIC add new results
to existing data from other accelerators
at different energies
√s=200 GeV
 Constrain fragmentation functions:
 Fits currently dominated by e+e- data
 Still large uncertainties, especially in
the gluon fragmentation functions
Significant contribution from gluons
in the RHIC regime

 In p+p study:

Vary gluon vs quark sensitivities:
constrain theory further

particle contribution

Detectors used :
Time projection Chamber
(|η|<1.8, full φ and 4.2 m long)
Time-Of-Flight (–1.0 < η < 0
and π/30 in φ)
Efficiency high and ~const at hight pT
Log10(dE/dx)
Particle identification: stable particles
Low pT : Particle identification by
dE/dx and ToF ( pT < 2.5 GeV/c)
Log10(p)
High pT : Extend particle identification in
TPC by exploiting the relativistic rise in
ionization energy loss.
π, p separation up to p~10GeV/c

Particle Identification - weak decays
 Use charged decay channels to
identify secondary vertex
K0S → π- + π+
Λ →p +π-
Ξ- → π- + Λ
Ω- → K-+ Λ
 Invariant mass to identify parent
 Clean signals over large
kinematical range,
0.5<pT<10 GeV/c - limit statistics
 Low efficiency
K0s

Particle/Anti-particle ratios
STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161
STAR, PRC 75 (2007)
PYTHIA predicts:
 flat pT dependence for π−/π+
 slightly more prominent pT dependence for p/p
 even stronger dependence for Λ/Λ
Good agreement with current data
Data is consistent with gluon jet dominated production
- but does not allow strong conclusion
Helen Caines – Yale University
11
π cross-section - sensitivity to FF
 pT reach to 15 GeV/c
 NLO pQCD calculations
(factorization scale µ = pt) with
different fragmentation functions
AKK, PLB 725 (2005)

π0 production at forward rapidity
Looking forward to probe the initial
gluon densities
 Inclusive forward π0 production in p
+p collisions at 200 GeV also
consistent with NLO pQCD
calculations
 Small η:
 data consistent with KKP
 Increasing η:
 data approaches cal. with
Kretzer set of FF
STAR, Phys.Rev.Lett.97,152302 (2006)
No one FF describes all data
Helen Caines – Yale University
13
(anti)proton cross-section
Baryons notoriously difficult to fit: limited knowledge of FF
Albino, Kramer, Kniehl
(AKK):
 use latest OPAL data to calculate
light flavor (u,d,s) separated
fragmentation functions for the first
time
AKK (arXiv:0803.2768)
_
 use BRAHMS p/p ratio as constraint
(y=2.95, pT<5GeV/c)
Z.Xu, QM 2008
(Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 252001 (2007))
With improved FF baryon - data and theory in good agreement
Helen Caines – Yale University
14
Contributions from gluon vs. quark jet
Look closer at AKK calculation
 Compare:
Gluon contribution to cross-section
Total cross-section
• Should see affect for π

NLO calculations for strange particles
 First NLO predictions for RHIC energies K0s and Λ by W.Vogelsang (RIKEN)
K0s OK but Λ poor
 AKK (2005) NLO for K0s and Λ - better agreement:

constrained shape of Gluon FF to DgΛ = DgP/3
 constrained magnitude using by STAR data


Kaon FF at forward rapidities
STAR: K0s - mid rapidity
BRAHMS: K+/- - forward rapidity
DSS, PRD76 (2007)
Good description of kaons over large rapidity range
Helen Caines – Yale University
17
Extrapolating FF at higher energies
Fit to 200 GeV (STAR RHIC) and extrapolate to 630 GeV (UA1 SPS)
AKK Lines are for µ=2*pT, pT, pT/2
PLB 725 (2005), PLB 734 (2006)
 Gluon constrained fit for Λ gives
good extrapolation
Λ
UA1 (630GeV)
STAR (200GeV)

 New multiple scattering and shower algorithms
 Fails to describe baryons with default parameters

K-factor in LO pQCD
How is the K-factor defined?
STAR
 Two definitions:
Kobs= σexp / σLO
Kth= σNLO / σLO
 Flavor dependence of K-factor,
differing NLO contributions ?
 For h- it decreases for collision
energy
•contribution
of NLO processes
smaller at higher energies
Eskola et al Nucl. Phys A 713 (2003)
K factor of 3 not unreasonable
Helen Caines – Yale University
21
What about non-strange particles ?
 Good agreement for π with K=1 but not for K=3
 proton with 1< K <3
• However only lower pT region measured
Need different K factors for different particles!

Baryon-meson ratios


Gluon jets produce a larger Baryon/Meson ratio than quark-jets
Cannot describe Baryon-Meson ratio at intermediate pT even
with tuned K-factors and/or di-quarks
STAR, Phys Lett B, 637 (2006) 161
√s=200 GeV
Our “tuned” PYTHIA under predicts B/M ratio at 200 and 630 GeV
also fails for p/π at ISR and FNAL: 19-53 GeV (not shown)

Strange baryons and

mT scaling of identified particles
 First studied at ISR - In Color Glass Condensate (CGC) picture mT-scaling
would be indicative of evidence of gluon saturation
 No absolute scaling (data shown are arbitrarily normalized)

Summary
•
•
•
RHIC p+p data are extensive and can be used to constrain models
Although the (OPAL) light-flavor separated measurements in e+e- collisions
provided significant improvement of FF for baryons and strange particles there
is still more detail required
p+p data provides a unique tool for understanding gluon vs. quark jet
contributions
• Baryon to meson ratios
• Splitting of high baryon-meson mT
•
mT(xT)-scaling in show that hard processes (related to PDF and FF) dominate
over soft process for minbias collisions starts at pT ~ 2 GeV/c
•
PYTHIA
• Reproduces the rise in <pT> of strange hadrons with Nch
•
•
•
Describes the charged hadron ξ and z distributions at √s=200 GeV
Cannot describe all the p+p data with a common K-factor
Particle pT spectra are significantly softer out of jet cone compared to in jet
cone, those of UE are close to that of Min-Bias triggered events.
