PHENIX Results on Jet Correlations versus Reaction Plane
نویسندگان
چکیده
In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, studying jet correlations and their dependence on the angle of emission with respect to the reaction plane can be used to shed light on the path length dependence of the energy lost by the jet. In this paper, we present recent PHENIX results on jet correlations versus reaction plane, as a function of centrality and transverse momentum.

Ways to constrain the away side jet in Au + Au collisions in PHENIX
We discussed methods used by the PHENIX to constrain the flow background in the two particle jet correlation. Both the background level and elliptic flow can be reliably decomposed from the jet contribution. We also studied the non-flow contribution to the reaction plane elliptic flow due to dijets. We found the jet bias is negligible in PHENIX, when the reaction plane is measured at Beam Beam ...
متن کاملJet Modification and a Comparative Study of Hadron V 2 Measurements in √ S N N = 200gev Au+au Collisions at Rhic-phenix
In this analysis we measure the azimuthal angle(φ) dependence of hadrons with respect to the reaction plane (ΨRP ) in events that were triggered by a high-pT π 0 of 5-10 GeV. Fitting the distribution of hadrons with a function of the type ξ(1+2v2 cos (2(φ −ΨRP ))), we observe that there is no significant statistical difference between v2 inclusive hadrons and those hadrons from hard scattering ...
متن کاملIdentification of exotic jet topologies via three particle correlations in PHENIX
Modifications of jet properties resulting from the coupling of jets to the strongly interacting matter produced in RHIC collisions are of great current interest. In recent work, the PHENIX collaboration has applied a novel technique to the analysis of two particle azimuthal correlations which extinguishes the harmonic part of the underlying event revealing the true jet shape. Recent extensions ...
متن کاملJet Correlations with Identified Particles from PHENIX : Methods and Results
Azimuthal angle two particle correlations have been shown to be a powerful probe for extracting novel features of the interaction between hard scattered partons and the medium produced in Au+Au collisions at RHIC. At intermediate pT , 2-5GeV/c, the jets have been shown to be significantly modified in both their particle composition and their angular distribution compared to p+p collisions. Addi...
متن کاملFrom mach cone to reappeared jet: What do we learn from PHENIX results on non-identified jet correlation?
Abstract. High pT jets are known to be strongly modified by the dense, strongly interacting medium created in heavy-ion collisions. The jet signal, extracted from two particle ∆φ correlation, shows a systematic evolution of these modifications as function of pT and centrality. At intermediate pT , both near side and away side correlations are modified. But the modifications are much stronger at...
