Lucia Leardini (Ruprecht-Karls-Universitaet Heidelberg (DE))23/09/2014, 09:05Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumExperimental$\pi^{0}$ and $\eta$ mesons are probes for studying, among other interesting phenomena, the energy loss of partons traversing the hot and dense medium, the Quark-Gluon Plasma, that is formed in heavy-ions collisions. In addition, the study of $\pi^{0}$ and $\eta$ mesons in Pb-Pb collisions is necessary for the direct-photon measurement since these mesons constitute its most important...Go to contribution page

Dr Sarah Campbell (Iowa State University)23/09/2014, 09:25Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumExperimentalCu+Au collisions at RHIC generate asymmetric initial geometries and densities in both azimuth and rapidity. High $p_T$ $\pi^0$s produced in $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV Cu+Au collisions provide new environments to study parton energy loss in the Quark Gluon Plasma. including very central events where the Cu nucleus is enveloped by the Au nucleus. By measuring $\pi^0$ yields in $\phi$ relative...Go to contribution page

Raghav Kunnawalkam Elayavalli (Rutgers, State Univ. of New Jersey (US))23/09/2014, 09:45Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumExperimentalOne of the signatures of the strongly interacting medium produced in heavy ion collisions is the suppression of high-transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) jets or so called ‘quenched jets’. In this talk, we present detailed measurements of nuclear modification factors and energy flow of quenched jets with the CMS detector. Those new results extend previous measurements to large angle with respect...Go to contribution page

Dr Konrad Tywoniuk (Universitat de Barcelona)23/09/2014, 10:35Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumTheoryThe modifications of jets created in heavy-ion collisions at LHC energies enables us to study microscopic features of the quark-gluon plasma. The inherent hierarchy of scales governing the jet evolution allows to distinguish a leading jet structure, which interacts coherently with the medium as a single color charge, from softer sub-structures, which will be sensitive to effects of color...Go to contribution page

Ms Bojana Blagojevic (Institute of Physics, University of Belgrade)23/09/2014, 10:55Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumTheoryD mesons are considered to be excellent probes of QCD matter created in ultra relativistic heavy ion collisions. Here we examine charm quark suppression in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC, since D mesons have an advantage that fragmentation does not modify bare charm quark suppression. For this, we use a theoretical formalism based on energy loss calculations in a finite size dynamical QCD...Go to contribution page

Yan Zhu (University of Santiago de Compostela)23/09/2014, 11:15Jets in the vacuum and in the mediumTheoryJet quenching has been proposed as a probe of QGP for more than a decade. It is still not clear how does jet loss its energy and how is the lost energy redistributed in the medium. In this talk, medium modification of γ-tagged jets and dijets in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is investigated within a Linearized Boltzmann Transport model for jet propagation that includes both elastic parton...Go to contribution page
