Recent high-pT results from STAR

  • 1. Universiteit Utrecht (Netherlands)

Description

We present selected recent results of multi-hadron correlation measurements in azimuth and pseudorapidity at intermediate and high pT in Au+Au collisions at √(sNN)=200 GeV, from the STAR experiment at RHIC. At intermediate pT, measurements are presented that attempt to determine the origin of the associated near-side (small Δφ) yield at large pseudo-rapidity difference Δη that is found to be present in heavy ion collisions. In addition, results are reported on new multi-hadron correlation measures at high-pT that use di-hadron triggers and multi-hadron cluster triggers with the goal to constrain the underlying jet kinematics better than in the existing measurements of inclusive spectra and di-hadron correlations.
