Parallel Session V: High pT Correlations (III)
- Daicui Zhou (Central China Normal University CCNU (CN))
The study of the azimuthal correlation and anisotropy with $\pi^0$ offers a powerful way to investigate the properties of strongly interacting matter created in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. In this talk, we present the measurement of two-particle correlations of $\pi^0$ trigger particles with associated charged particles versus azimuthal angle difference ($\Delta\varphi$) in pp and...
The normalized dijet pseudorapidity distributions in pPb collisions can reveal the nuclear modifications of parton distribution functions (nPDF). Measurements as a function of average dijet transverse momentum could enable the test of the nPDF at different Q^2 scales. Moreover, recent theoretical studies based on NLO calculations show that the constraining power of pPb data on nPDF fits can be...
Jets are modified in relativistic heavy-ion collisions due to jet-medium interactions. Measurements of jet medium modifications have so far been obscure because of the large underlying anisotropic flow background. In this analysis we devise a novel method to subtract the flow background using data. We select events with a large recoil momentum ($P_x$) within a pseudorapidity ($\eta$) window of...
The energy loss of jets in heavy-ion collisions is expected to depend on the mass and flavor of the initiating parton. Thus, measurements of jet quenching with identified partons place powerful constraints on the thermodynamic and transport properties of the hot and dense medium. We present recent result on heavy flavor jet spectra and nuclear modification factors of jets associated to charm...
