Description

An overview of results on near-side high-pT triggered correlations in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC energy is presented. These correlations reveal a novel, long-range pseudo-rapidity correlation, commonly referred to as the ridge which is not present in p+p or d+Au collisions. The centrality, collision system, energy, transverse momentum, path length dependence as well as particle composition of the ridge are discussed and compared with the properties of the jet-like component at near side. The data are also confronted with theoretical calculations. (orig.)
