Abstract

We report results on event-by-event hard probe of soft matter geometry and fluctuations in heavy ion collisions. Geometric data ( $v_2$ of high $p_t$ hadrons) from RHIC plus LHC clearly favors jet "monography" model with strong near-Tc enhancement of jet-medium interaction strength which also implies a less opaque medium at LHC. We also quantify the jet responses to all harmonic anisotropy $v_n$ ( $n=1,2,3,4,5,6$ ) and their manifestation in hard-soft azimuthal correlations.
