Description

First results of jet reconstruction in simulated Pb+Pb collisions with the ALICE detector at LHC at √sNN = 5.5 TeV, using a combination of tracking and calorimetric information, are presented. It is demonstrated that changes in jet fragmentation functions, caused by jet energy loss in a dense medium, and modelled in simulations, are measurable
