Summary of Experimental Results
Jamie NagleUniversity of Colorado at Boulder

OutlineOutlineWe have had an excellent workshop presenting a wealth of experimental results from RHIC and elsewhere.
My purpose here is not to re-present all the results shown at the workshop. Instead:
I hope to learn something by highlighting certain results and asking certain questions.
I hope you will learn something that you might have missed or not considered during the earlier presentations.

Charm total cross section per NN interaction
Charm total cross section follows roughly Nbin scaling from d+Au to Au+Au considering errors
Indication of charm production in initial collisions
Quiz: What fraction of the charm cross section isrepresented by electrons above pT > 0.8 GeV?(a) 0.85, (b) 0.50, (c) 0.15
From the STAR data we know charm scales between 0.6 and 1.6 (but only for minimum bias AuAu). Thus, we should be cautious in our conclusions on scaling.

"The detector material in STAR caused too much photonic background, which caused huge systematic and statistical uncertainties. Our result is not sensitive enough to make any conclusion about heavy quark v2 so far. More work ahead!"

Detailed TheoryDetailed TheoryIn a calculation by Teaney and Moore (hep-ph/0412346), they calculate the expected elliptic flow (v2) and transverse momentum modifications for different charm quark diffusion coefficients. The two effects go hand in hand.
My comment: Anything that increases the cross section for interactions will have this general effect.Does the specific resonance picture give something unique? Miklos' question on Form Factor.

What from the past is "solid" knowledge is oftennot so clear?
Must establish clearly what the facts are before a true theory can be developed and tested.
I think we are moving a long way in that direction!

Color Screening
cc
Lattice QCD results show that the confining potential between heavy quarks is screened at high temperature.
This screening should suppress bound states such as J/.
However, recent lattice results indicate that the J/ spectral functions only show modest modification near the critical temperature, and thus may not be suppressed until higher T.

“A clear onset of the anomaly is observed. It excludes models based on hadronic scenarios since only smooth behavior with monotonic derivatives can be inferred from such calculations” Phys. Lett. B 450, 456 (1999).

D. Kharzeev, Nucl. Phys. A638, 279a (1998).
Invoking a model of bubble nucleation, one is able to reproduce the suppression. This implies a relatively strong 1st order phase transition. Or what about 2nd order with finite volume effects?

What do we learn?What do we learn?Earlier papers from Satz et al. stated that nuclear absorption of 6 mb for octet state and 2 mb for singlet state.
Now the absorption cross section measured has changed from 6.2 mb to
abs)=4.18 +/- 0.35 mb (hep-ex/0412036)
Does that mean not all octet?Lack of reliability of calculation?Is this important for detailed balance calculations?

Note that most theories so far treat the topics of heavy quarks and heavy quarkonia quite separately, but they are intimately related.
Given the talks at this workshop, this lesson is something most theorists have accepted.
