Description
Dijet acoplanarity is dominated by vacuum (Sudakov) pQCD radiation even in Pb+Pb collisions, but future higher precision measurements of the tails of the acoplanarity distributions can help to resolve separately the medium opacity, , and the color screening scale from the path averaged BDMS saturation scale , that is already well constrained by nuclear modification factor data on . We compare Gaussian (BDMS) and non-Gaussian (GLV) models of medium broadening of vacuum (Sudakov) induced acoplanarity distributions in A+A. With few percent accuracy on the ratio of A+A to p+p distributions, experiments can easily identify non-Gaussian Landau and Rutherford tails due to multiple collisions. However, we find that sub-percent precision will be required to constrain χ and μ separately from .
