Description
The measurements of fragmentation functions, jet shapes and missing transverse momenta by the CMS collaboration show that jet properties in central PbPb collisions are modified compared to pp collisions. Modification of jets at small angles are investigated by the first two measurements and jets are observed to get softer and broader. Missing transverse momenta measurement provides detailed characterisation of angular distribution of momentum flow with respect to jets at large angles. Focussing on dijet events with large dijet transverse momentum asymmetry makes it possible to investigate momentum flow around jets which undergo a significant energy loss as they transverse the medium.
