Nuclear Modification Factor of D0 Meson in Au + Au Collisions at sNN=200 GeV
چکیده انگلیسی
Heavy-flavor quarks are dominantly produced in initial hard scattering processes and experience the whole evolution of the system in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC energies. Thus they are suggested to be an excellent probe to the medium properties through their interaction with the medium. In this proceedings, we report our first measurement of D0 production via topological reconstruction using STAR's recently installed Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT). We also report our new measurement of Nuclear Modification Factor (RAA) of D0 mesons in central Au+Au collisions at sNN=200 GeV as a function of transverse momentum (pT). New results confirm the strong suppression at high pT with a much improved precision, and show that the RAA at high pT are comparable with light hadrons (π) and with D meson measurements at the LHC. Furthermore, several theoretical calculations are compared to our data, and with charm diffusion coefficient 2πTDS∼2-12 can reproduce both the D0RAA and v2 data in Au+Au collisions at RHIC.
