Title: 1. New questions and needs


1
sPHENIX upgrade for a next US-J project
ShinIchi Esumi, Univ. of Tsukuba for the
PHENIX/US-J collaboration
1. New questions and needs 2. sPHENIX concept and
acceptance 3. soft physics and thermal photons 4.
critical point and fluctuation 5. jets and hard
probes 6. detector RD, schedule and plan
2
New questions from RHIC LHC data!
  • How is thermalization achieved so rapidly?
  • Are there quasiparticles in the quark gluon
    plasma? If so, when and what are they?
  • What is the mechanism for quark/gluon-plasma
    interactions? Plasma response?
  • Nature of QCD matter at low T but high ??
  • At what scales is the coupling strong?
  • Is there a relevant (color) screening length?
  • Are there novel symmetry properties?

To answer these questions

Collective expansion and freeze-out
photons

v2 of hadrons
thermal photon (low pT) surprisingly large
v2 prompt photons (high pT) reasonably small
energy loss
quark coalescence
v2 of direct photons
hydro expansion

Initial fluctuation followed by collective
expansion

Initial density distribution

7
Fluctuations close to the Critical Point
higher moments of p-pbar distribution
S. Gupta, QM2011
8
Jet quenching with reconstructed jets
Closer and closer to the initial parton energy
Gamma trig.
Jet (large R) trig.
Jet (small R) trig.
?0(hadron) trig.
more and more surface bias given by energy loss
9
Energy dependence is a key tool for understanding
RHIC provides a sweet spot
Lattice calc.

Direct photon flow
Charged hadrons, photons and electrons
ee-, J/psi
Si cylindrical GEM
tracking under high-multiplicity
11
Jets in medium
jet-reconstruction study
  • Capable with inclusive jets of ET2065 GeV and
    R0.20.3 in central Au-Au
  • Lower energy and/or larger R jets for
    non-central Au-Au and light ions
