Jet and Leading Hadron Production in High-energy Heavy-ion Collisions

چکیده

Jet tomography has become a powerful tool for the study of properties of dense matter in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. I will discuss recent progresses in the phenomenological study of jet quenching, including momentum, colliding energy and nuclear size dependence of single hadron suppression, modification of dihadron correlations and the soft hadron distribution associated with a quenched jet.

Simulation of Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions

One of the important tools for studying the properties of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions is the analysis of a QCD jet production. The medium-induced energy loss of energetic partons, “jet quenching”, should be very different in the cold nuclear matter and QGP, resulting in many observable phenomena . Recent RHIC data on high-pT particle production at √ s = 20...

Multiplicity distributions for jet parton showers in a medium

The “jet-quenching” interpretation of suppressed high-pT hadron production at RHIC implies that jet multiplicity distributions and jet-like particle correlations in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC differ strongly from those seen at ee or pp (pp̄) colliders. Here, we present an approach for describing the changes induced by the medium, which implements jet quenching as a probabilistic medium...

Jet Tomography in the Forward Direction at RHIC

Hadron production at high-pT displays a strong suppression pattern in a wide rapidity region in heavy ion collisions at RHIC energies. This finding indicates the presence of strong final state effects for both transversally and longitudinally traveling partons, namely induced energy loss. We have developed a perturbative QCD based model to describe hadron production in pp collision, which can b...

A Short Review on Jet Identification

Jets can be used to probe the physical properties of the high energy density matter created in collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Measurements of strong suppression of inclusive hadron distributions and di-hadron correlations at high pT have already provided evidence for partonic energy loss. However, these measurements suffer from well-known geometric biases due to the c...

Jet Photoproduction in Peripheral Heavy-Ion Collisions

In peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider, jet+jet and photon+jet final states can be produced when a photon from the virtual photon field surrounding the nucleus interacts with a parton in the opposite nucleus (direct production). The virtual photon may also fluctuate into states with multiple gluons and qq pairs (resolved production), opening more channels f...
