Two-particle azimuthal angle correlations and azimuthal charge balance function in relativistic heavy ion collisions

Trends in Yield and Azimuthal Shape Modification in Dihadron Correlations in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Transition in yield and azimuthal shape modification in dihadron correlations in relativistic heavy ion collisions.

Hard-scattered parton probes produced in collisions of large nuclei indicate large partonic energy loss, possibly with collective produced-medium response to the lost energy. We present measurements of π^{0} trigger particles at transverse momenta p{T}{t}=4-12  GeV/c and associated charged hadrons (p{T}{a}=0.5-7  GeV/c) vs relative azimuthal angle Δϕ in Au+Au and p+p collisions at sqrt[s{NN}]=2...

System Size Dependence of Azimuthal Correlations in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Systematic comparisons of jet pair correlations obtained in Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at √ sNN =200 GeV are presented. The measured jet-pair distributions for both systems show strong modification of the away-side jet. For the same number of participating nucleons, the modification does not show a strong dependence on the collision system. It is suggested that such comparisons can provide impo...
