Description
Jets provide a powerful tool for probing the dynamics of the quark-gluon plasma created in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. The modification of high-pT jets as they propagate in the quark-gluon plasma provides insight on structure of the plasma at short-length scale. Such modifications have been observed in a variety of measurements of single jet, dijet, photon-jet and charged-particle fragmentation functions. Recent results of jet modifications in proton-lead and Pb+Pb collisions will be presented.
