2. Statistical Jet Fragmentation at LHC

Oral presentation

Fragmentation functions measured in e+e- and pp collisions are well reproduced via a fragmentation model based on microcanonical statistics and superimposed Euler--Gamma-type multiplicity fluctuations [1,2]. The power of the obtained analytic fragmentation function (which is a cut-power function in x) develops a double-logarithmic dependence on the QCD scale Q^2 [3]. Besides, this function...

Oral presentation

First thought to be a gas of nearly non-interacting particles, the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) was unexpectedly found to behave as a near perfect fluid. How the small viscosity of the QGP arises from the microscopic system of quarks and gluons is not yet known and requires a greater understanding of the state's microscopic description. Fast partons are useful probes of that structure and are best...

20. Momentum balance of dijets from in-medium hard scattering partons

Oral presentation

In a recent line of work, we have been studing the energy-momentum deposited by fast moving partons within a medium using linearized viscous hydrodynamics. We have shown that for the conditions arising in heavy-ion collisions, energy momentum is preferentially deposited along the head shock of the fast moving partons. We now focus on the analysis of the momentum balance of dijets produced by...
