Description

High-pT hadron-hadron correlations have been measured with the PHENIX experiment in Cu + Cu and p+p collisions at √sNN=200 GeV. A comparison of the jet widths and yields between the two colliding systems allows us to study the medium effect on jets. We also present a first measurement of direct photon-hadron correlations in Au +Au and p+p collisions. We find that the near-side yields are consistent with zero in both systems. By comparing the jet yields on the away side, we observe a suggestion of the expected suppression of hadrons associated with photons in Au +Au collisions
