Non-photonic electron-hadron correlations at STAR
Abstract
We present STAR's measurements of azimuthal correlations between non-photonic electrons and charged hadrons in p+p, Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV. In p+p collisions, from the non-photonic e-h correlation we have extracted the relative B meson semi-leptonic decay contributions to non-photonic electrons up to electron pt 9 GeV/c. In central Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions where a dense medium is created, we find that the e-h correlation on the away side of the trigger non-photonic electron has been modified in comparison with the expectation from PYTHIA simulations.
