Outline
Identify and study QCD bulk-matter with
partonic degrees of freedom:
• Gobal observable multiplicity
• Chemical freeze-out, Tch and B
• Partonic collectivity, Tfo and T
• Heavy – quark collectivity
• Summary

Chemical Freeze - out
ISMD, Berkeley, Aug 4 9, 2007 Kai Schweda
Hadron Yield Ratios
1) At RHIC:
Tch = 160 ± 10 MeV
B = 25 ± 5 MeV
2) S = 1.
The hadronic system is thermalized at RHIC.
3) Short-lived resonances show deviations.
There is life after chemical freeze-out.

Chemical Freeze-Out vs Energy
A. Andronic et al., NPA 772 (2006) 167.
With increasing energy:
• Tch increases and saturates
at Tch = 160 MeV
• Coincides with Hagedorn
temperature
• Coincides with early lattice results
limiting temperature for
hadrons, Tch 160 MeV !
B decreases, B = 1MeV at LHC
Nearly net-baryon free !

Baryon Ratios
Compilation: N. Xu
With increasing energy:
• Baryon ratios approach unity
• At LHC, pbar / p 0.95
challenge,
need 1% precision to
address net-baryon
transport !

Partonic Collectivity
11 ISMD, Berkeley, Aug 4 9, 2007 Kai Schweda
Elliptic Flow
Theory points: C.M. Ko – last call for predictions, CERN, May 2007.
“Elliptic flow is larger for
pions but smaller for
protons at LHC than at
RHIC”.
This is expected from simple, hydro-like blast-wave fits !
larger collective flow: mass ordering more pronounced !

Collectivity Energy Dependence
Collectivity parameters <T>
and <v2> increase with energy
Two extreme secenarios:
(a) Tfo Tch AND T 0.8
pure partonic
collectivity at LHC!
(b) Tfo Tch , T 0.3
no collectivity,
no QGP !

Quark Masses
1) Higgs mass: electro-weak symmetry breaking. (current quark mass)
2) QCD mass: Chiral symmetry breaking. (constituent quark mass)
Strong interactions do not
affect heavy-quark masses.
Important tool for studying properties of the hot/dense medium at RHIC and LHC.
Test pQCD predictions at RHIC and LHC.

• Pair creation: back to back
• Gluon splitting: forward
• Flavor excitation: flat

Hadronic Re-scattering
Hadronic re-scattering can not completely wash out DD-correlations
Frequent partonic re-scattering needed light quark
thermalization !X. Zhu, M. Bleicher, K.S., H. Stoecker, N. Xu et al., PLB 647 (2007) 366.
