Parallel 17: jet R_AA, correlation
- Rainer Fries (Texas A&M University)
A path length asymmetry along impact parameter direction ($x$) exists for hard probes in heavy-ion collisions at finite rapidity, as the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) bulk is tilted in reaction plane, while the hard scattering profile is not~\cite{ref1}. Jet $v_1$ and $\langle p_x \rangle$ measurements provide access to path length dependent energy loss of partons in the QGP. Such a measurement has...
High-energy jets are produced by the fragmentation of partons (quarks and gluons) that underwent hard scattering in the early stages of a collision. For quite a number of years, jets have been successfully used to probe the properties of the special form of matter, the quark gluon plasma (QGP), formed in high-energy heavy ion collisions. One of the most recognized signatures of the QGP, the...
Jet quenching is recognized as critical evidence for the existence of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and serves as an essential probe to study its transport properties. Measurements of hadron-triggered semi-inclusive recoil jets has gained popularity due to its capability to probe jets over an extended phase space at low transverse momenta ($p_T$) and large radii. Recent ALICE measurements...
We report new ALICE measurements of inclusive charged-particle jet yield suppression $R_\mathrm{AA}$ and jet azimuthal anisotropy $v_2$ in Pb--Pb collisions. The $R_\mathrm{AA}$ measurement is carried out in central Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}=5.02$ TeV, with uncorrelated background corrected statistically using an event-mixing approach. The charged-particle jet $R_\mathrm{AA}$...
