Critical Opalescence: a laboratory method to observe a 2nd order PT correlation length diverges, clusters on all scales appear incl. the wavelength of the penetrating (laser) probe

Critical Opalescence
T. Csörgő @ Rio, 06/08/31 & Tokaj, 08/03/19 4
Suggests: the matter is most opaque at the critical point! (See videos here)observation of a penetrating probe with fixed trigger(e.g. a trigger particle with high pt > 5 GeV)look for the broadening and disappearance of the punch-through jetas a function of sqrt(sNN): max effect corresponds to hitting Tc (CP)
Critical Opalescence

Direct -hadron jet correlations : yields the energy of the jet
penetrates matter
hadron jet: punches through T > Tc
punches through T < Tc
disappears near Tc
running down RHIC provides a uniqueopportunity to measure
( , jet) correlation functions
disappearance of the punch-through jet at the onset of the second order phase transition: signal of critical opalescence. (Minimum of RAA is reached)

Characterizing a 2nd order phase transition
Relevant and important quantities:critical exponents, universality classes
Reduced temperature:
Exponent of susceptibility:
Exponent of specific heat:
Exponent of order parameter:
Exponent of correlationlength :

Characterizing a 2nd order PT – 2.
Exponent of the Fourier-transformedcorrelation function:
Exponents <-> universality class!
Exponent of order parameterin external field:
There are thus 6 critical exponents,
but only 2 are independent:

Search for a 1st order QCD phase transition
QGP has more degrees of freedom than pion gas
Entropy should be conservedduring fireball evolution
Hence: Look in hadronic phasefor signs of:
Large size, Large lifetime,
Softest point of EOS
signals of a 1st order (!) phase trans.

Critical phenomena
Order parameter of QCD - quark condensate:
Correlation function of quark condensate:
measures spatial correlations of pions,it decreases for large distances as:
d: dimension = 3critical exponent of the correlation function
Random field 3d Ising (QCD @ CEP):(Rieger, Phys. Rev. B52 (1995) 6659)
w/o random field: even smaller value!
T. Csörgő @ Rio, 06/08/31 & Tokaj, 08/03/19 16
Scale invariant (Lévy) sources
Fluctuations appear on many scales, final position is a sum of many random shifts:
correlation function measures a Fourier-transform,that of an n-fold convolution:
Lévy: generalized central limit theoremsadding one more step in the convolution does not change the shape
T. Csörgő @ Rio, 06/08/31 & Tokaj, 08/03/19 17
Correlation functions for Lévy sources
Correlation funct of stable sources:
R: scale parameter : shape parameter or Lévy index of stability Gaussian, Lorentzian sources

Correlation signal of the CEP
If the source distributionat CEP is a Lévy, it decays as:
at CEP, the tail decreases as:
hence: & excitation of as a function of = | T - Tc| / Tc

Excitation of 3d Gaussian fit parameters
These data exclude:
1st order phase trans. (assumed in many hydro codes)
For a second order PT:
excitation function of non-Gaussian parameter New analysis / new data are needed

Correlation signal, VARIOUS Quark MattersTransition to hadron gas may be:
(strong) 1st ordersecond order (Critical Point, CP)cross-overfrom a supercooled state (scQGP)
Type of phase transition: its correlation signature:
Strong 1st order QCD phase transition:(Pratt, Bertsch, Rischke, Gyulassy) Rout >> Rside
Second order QCD phase transition:(T. Cs, S. Hegyi, T. Novák, W.A. Zajc) non-Gaussian shape
(Lévy) decreases to 0.5
Cross-over quark matter-hadron gas transition: (lattice QCD, Buda-Lund hydro fits) hadrons appear from

Summary
High transverse momentum + jet correlations:maximal opalescence for
LOCATING the critical end point
Soft Bose-Einstein correlations:measure the excitation function of anon-Gaussian parameter: Lévy index of stability,
critical exponent of the correlation functionUniversality class argument:
decreases from 2 (or 1.4) to 0.5 (random field 3d Ising) or even smaller value (3d Ising) at CEP
yielding one of the 4 exponents thatCHARACTERIZE 2nd order phase transition

But are the correlation data Gaussian?
1 dimensional correlations:
typically more peaked than a Gaussian
if a Gaussian fit does not describe the data
then have the parametersany meaning?
Example:like sign correlation data of the UA1 collaboration
