Energy loss of partons traversing a QGP fluid
Measurements of high pT hadrons at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) may provide insight into a quark gluon plasma (QGP) [1]. Since jets have to traverse the excited matter, their spectra should be changed in comparison with the elementary hadron-hadron data. The energy loss of jets has been proposed as a possible signal of the QGP phase in relativistic heavy ion collisions [2]. Over t...

We analyse the azimuthal correlation function for high p T charged hadrons in Au+Au collisions at the RHIC energy. By using a dynamical model in which hydrodynamics is combined with explicit propagation of high p T partons, we study the effect of the intrinsic transverse momentum of initial partons on the azimuthal back-to-back correlations.
متن کاملRadiative Energy Loss of High Energy Partons Traversing an Expanding QCD Plasma
We study analytically the medium-induced energy loss of a high energy parton passing through a finite size QCD plasma, which is expanding longitudinally according to Bjorken’s model. We extend the BDMPS formalism already applied to static media to the case of a quark which hits successive layers of matter of decreasing temperature, and we show that the resulting radiative Permanent address: Pet...
متن کاملA Bound on the Energy Loss of Partons in Nuclei*
We derive a quantum mechanical upper bound on the amount of radiative energy loss suffered by high energy quarks and gluons in nuclear matter. The bound shows that the nuclear suppression observed in quarkonium production at high xF cannot be explained in terms of energy loss of the initial or final parton states. We also argue that no nuclear suppression is expected in the photoproduction of l...
متن کاملCollisional Energy Loss of a Fast Parton in a QGP
The suppression of hadron pT spectra in high energy central heavy-ion collisions compared to proton-proton collisions, referred to as ’jet-quenching’, is currently attributed to partonic energy loss in the hot medium created in the collision. The RHIC experiments show that at large enough pT , hadron quenching is strong, and of similar magnitude for light and heavy flavours. This point is diffi...
