Jet correlation measurement in heavy-ion collisions: from RHIC to LHC

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-11 v2

Abstract

We attempt to deduce simple options of `jet quenching' phenomena in heavy-ion collisions at \snn=5.5\tev\snn=5.5 \tev at the LHC from the present knowledge of leading-hadron suppression at RHIC energies. In light of the nuclear modification factor for leading particles we introduce the nuclear modification factor for jets, \RAAjet\RAA^{jet}, and for the longitudinal momenta of particles along the jet axis, \RAApL\RAA^{p_{\rm L}}.
