Description

We report the measurement of transverse momentum spectra of the charged hadrons and photons in √sNN = 2.76 TeV PbPb collisions with the CMS detector. The nuclear modification factors are constructed by dividing the PbPb pT spectra, normalized to the number of binary collisions, by the pp references.
