Heavy Flavor and Jets at RHIC

Nuclear Experiment 2019-08-21 v1

Abstract

We present recent results for heavy flavor and jets produced in sNN=200\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV p-p, d-Au, Cu-Cu and Au-Au collisions at at RHIC. We find J/ψ\psi production is suppressed in Au-Au, but high energy J/ψ\psi are not suppressed in d-Au or Cu-Cu. Non-photonic electrons from D and B mesons are both suppressed in Au-Au. We study jets using two-particle 2D angular correlations as well as jet reconstruction algorithms. We find that jets show little if any suppression, but are highly modified in central Au-Au, becoming elongated in the η\eta direction and having fewer high-ptp_t particles but many more low-ptp_t particles for central Au-Au.
