High-pT hadron spectra, azimuthal anisotropy and back-to-back correlations in high-energy heavy-ion collisions

Creators

Description

We investigate the suppression factor and the azimuthal correlation function for high pT hadrons in central Au+Au collisions at √(s(NN))=200 GeV by using a dynamical model in which hydrodynamics is combined with explicitly traveling jets. We study the effects of parton energy loss in a hot medium, intrinsic $kT$ of partons in a nucleus, and Ppendicular broadening of jets on the back-to-back correlations of high pT hadrons. Parton energy loss is found to be a dominant effect on the reduction of the away-side peaks in the correlation function
