Modeling Magnetic Field in Heavy ion Collisions Using Two Different Nuclear Charge Density Distributions

By studying the properties of matter during heavy-ion collisions, a better understanding of the Quark-Gluon plasma is possible. One of the main areas of this study is the calculation of the magnetic field, particularly how the values of conductivity affects this field and how the field strength changes with proper time. In matching the theoretical calculations with results obtained in lab, two diffe...

The thermal nature of high p T photons in high energy nuclear collisions

We discuss the recent status of some penetrating electromagnetic probes of relativistic nuclear collisions, and the information contained in their measurement. We concentrate in turn on sources that produce high pT photons: those of purely thermal origin, those producing direct photons, those related to jet fragmentation, and those associated with the interaction of jets with the colored plasma...

Jet and Minijet Contributions to Transverse Momentum Correlations in High Energy Collisions

I have been studying the effects of jet and minijet production on momentum fluctuations in proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. Specifically, I’ve been studying transverse momentum and multiplicity correlations using the Monte Carlo event generator PYTHIA [1]. There are many different types of correlations that occur in nuclear collisions and I’ve been focusing on two: radial flow and jets. ...

Jets and high pT hadrons in dense matter: recent results from STAR

We review recent measurements of high transverse momentum (high pT ) hadron production in nuclear collisions by the STAR Collaboration at RHIC. The previously observed suppression in central Au+Au collisions has been extended to much higher pT . New measurements from d+Au collisions are presented which help disentangle the mechanisms responsible for the suppression. Inclusive single hadron spec...

Measurement of jet suppression in central Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV

Article history: Received 6 February 2015 Received in revised form 25 March 2015 Accepted 20 April 2015 Available online 22 April 2015 Editor: L. Rolandi The transverse momentum (pT) spectrum and nuclear modification factor (RAA) of reconstructed jets in 0–10% and 10–30% central Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV were measured. Jets were reconstructed using the anti-kT jet algorithm with a res...
