Parallel 22: heavy quarks hard, jet
- Yen-Jie Lee (Massachusetts Inst. of Technology (US))
High-pt theory and data are traditionally used to study the interactions of high-pt partons with the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Conversely, bulk QGP properties are typically inferred from low-pt data and models. Our approach unifies these domains through a finite-temperature dynamical energy loss (DREENA) framework, enabling a comprehensive QGP properties assessment using high-pt and low-pt...
We derive the characteristic behaviour of the splitting function of a gluon to ccbar inside of a jet and focus on the medium modification. In the Baier-Dokshitzer-Mueller-Peigné-Schiff and Zakharov formalism one determines the modifications of parton splittings in the hot QCD plasma that arise from medium-induced gluon radiation. We study the modification of the g->c-cbar splitting function in...
Energy-energy correlators (EECs) have been proposed as excellent jet substructure observables for studying the space-time structure of the jet shower and disentangling the different properties of the quark-gluon plasma. The EEC distributions of charged hadron jets, $D$-tagged and $B$-tagged jets from PYTHIA 8 exhibit that the EEC of heavy meson jets in small angle is much smaller than that of...
