High $p_T > 10$ GeV elliptic flow, which is experimentally measured via the correlation between soft and hard hadrons, receives competing contributions from event-by-event fluctuations of the low $p_T$ elliptic flow and event plane angle fluctuations in the soft sector. In this paper, a proper account of these event-by-event fluctuations in the soft sector, modeled via viscous hydrodynamics,...
The study of direct-photon-triggered away-side jets was proposed [1]
as a good probe of parton energy loss because the direct photon
transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) approximates that of recoil parton before
traversing the medium created in heavy-ion collisions. On the other
hand, comparison between the suppression of direct photon- and $\pi^{0}$-
triggered
away-side hadron yields...
We present new results with the latest version of the JEWEL monte carlo event generator. The correlation of photons and vector bosons with the jets produced in heavy ion environment at 2.76 TeV and 5 TeV are studied including comparisons with data. These electro weak interacting bosons leave the medium unmodified and hence provide the perfect tool to study the modification of the recoil jets...
In relativistic heavy ion collisions, a hot medium with a high density of unscreened color charges is produced. Jets are produced at the early stages of this collision and are known to become attenuated as they propagate through the hot matter. One manifestation of this energy loss is a lower yield of jets emerging from the medium than expected in the absence of medium effects. Another...
High $p_\mathrm{T}$ jet suppression in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion (AA) collisions is a key signature of the formation of a deconfined phase (QGP).
To attribute this suppression uniquely to a hot and dense QGP medium, reference measurements are necessary to quantify the cold nuclear matter effects.

An ideal way to study the influence of cold nuclear matter on the observed jet yield...
