Nuclear Physics Seminar

"Electromagnetic Probes at RHIC-II"

Presented by Gabor David, Brookhaven National Laboratory

Tuesday, January 15, 2008, 11:00 am — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

We will review what has (and what hasn't) been learned so
far about the sQGP using real and virtual photons. Electromagnetic
probes offer unique opportunities to gain insight into the evolution
of the colliding system and to study medium properties, but they also
pose serious challenges to the experimentalist, and typically photon
measurements are limited in their precision by systematics rather than
by statistics. However, we will argue that the increased luminosity
of RHIC-II will give a major boost to the study of electromagnetic
probes as well. In light of and extrapolating from the latest results
we will discuss what new opportunities will open up and outline
strategies to establish microscopic matter and transition properties.
