Inclusive pi0 spectra at high transverse momentum in d-Au collisions at RHIC
Abstract
Preliminary results on inclusive neutral pion production in d-Au collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 200 GeV in the pseudo-rapidity range 0<eta<1 are presented. The measurement is performed using the STAR Barrel Electromagnetic calorimeter (BEMC). In this paper, the analysis of the first BEMC hadron measurement is described and the results are compared with earlier RHIC findings. The pi0 invariant differential cross sections show good agreement with next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD calculations.
