Abstract

We report on the measurement of hadron composition in charged jets in pp at s=7\sqrt{s}=7 TeV and show the first data on particle type dependent jet fragmentation at the LHC. Further, we present (Λ+Λˉ)/2(\Lambda+\bar{\Lambda})/2KS0^{0}_{\mathrm{S}} ratios measured in charged jets in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN=2.76\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76 TeV and in p-Pb collisions at sNN=5.02\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.02 TeV. While the ratio of the inclusive pTp_{\mathrm{T}} spectra of Λ\Lambda and KS0^{0}_{\mathrm{S}} exhibits centrality dependent enhancement both in Pb-Pb and p-Pb system, the (Λ+Λˉ)/2(\Lambda+\bar{\Lambda})/2KS0^{0}_{\mathrm{S}} ratio measured in charged jets reveals that jet fragmentation does not contribute to the observed baryon anomaly. Finally, we discuss the measurement of semi-inclusive pTp_{\mathrm{T}} spectra of charged jets that recoil from a high-pTp_{\mathrm{T}} hadron trigger in Pb-Pb and pp collisions at sNN=2.76\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76 TeV and s=7\sqrt{s} = 7 TeV, respectively. The jet yield uncorrelated with the trigger hadron is removed at the event-ensemble level without introducing a bias on the jet population which is therefore infrared and collinear safe. The recoil jet yield in central Pb-Pb is found to be suppressed w.r.t. that from pp PYTHIA reference. On the other hand, there is no sign of intra-jet broadening even for anti-kTk_{\mathrm{T}} jets with a resolution parameter as large as R=0.5R=0.5.
