Extracting the jet azimuthal anisotropy from higher order cumulants
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze the method for calculation of a coefficient of jet azimuthal anisotropy without reconstruction of the nuclear reaction plane considering the higher order correlators between the azimuthal position of jet axis and the angles of particles not incorporated in the jet. The reliability of this technique in the real physical situation under LHC conditions is illustrated. ——————————————— † E-mail: [email protected] ‡ E-mail: [email protected] § E-mail: [email protected]

Correlation Functions and Cumulants in Elliptic Flow Analysis
We consider various methods of flow analysis in heavy ion collisions and compare experimental data on corresponding observables to the predictions of our saturation model proposed earlier [1]. We demonstrate that, due to the nature of the standard flow analysis, azimuthal distribution of particles with respect to reaction plane determined from the second order harmonics should always be proport...
متن کاملMethods for Jet Studies with Three-particle Correlations
We present a method based on three-particle azimuthal correlation cumulants for the study of the interaction of jets with the medium produced in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC where jets cannot be reconstructed on an event-by-event basis with conventional jet finding algorithms. The method is specifically designed to distinguish a range of jet interaction mechanisms such as Mach cone emis...
متن کاملThe method for analysing jet azimuthal anisotropy in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions
The azimuthal anisotropy of jet spectra due to energy loss of jet partons in azimuthally non-symmetric volume of dense quark-gluon matter is considered for semi-central nuclear interactions at collider energies. We develop the techniques for event-by-event analysing jet azimuthal anisotropy using particle and energy elliptic flow, and suggest the method for calculating coefficient of jet azimut...

Jet quenching and high-p T azimuthal asymmetry Abstract The azimuthal anisotropy of high-p T particle production in non-central heavy ion collisions is among the most promising observables of partonic energy loss in an azimuthally non-symmetric volume of quark-gluon plasma. We discuss the implications of nuclear geometry for the models of partonic energy loss in the context of recent RHIC data ...
متن کاملJet Tomography of Quark Gluon Plasma
Recent experimental measurements of high pT hadron spectra and jet correlation at RHIC are analyzed within a parton model which incoporates initial jet production and final propagation in heavy-ion collisions. The suppresion of single hadron spectra, back-to-back correlation, their centrality dependence and azimuthal anisotropy point to a dense matter with an initial parton density about 30 tim...
