Abstract

Jet shape measurements are strongly suggested to explore the microscopic evolution mechanism of parton-medium interaction in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. In this paper, jet shape modifications are quantified by fragmentation function F(z)F(z), relative momentum pTrelp_{T}^{rel}, density of charged particles ρ(r)\rho(r), jet angularity girthgirth, jet momentum dispersion pTDispp_{T}^{Disp} and LeSubLeSub for proton-proton collisions at 900GeV900GeV, 5.02TeV5.02TeV, 7TeV7TeV and 13TeV13TeV, as well as for lead-lead collisions at 2.76TeV2.76TeV and 5.02TeV5.02TeV. A differential jet shape parameters DgirthD_{girth} is proposed and studied at smaller-radius jet r<0.3r<0.3. The results indicate that medium effect is dominant for jet shape modifications, which is less dependent on center of mass energy. The jet fragmentation is enhanced significantly at very low z<0.02z<0.02 and fragmented jet constituents are spread to larger jet-radius linearly for pTrel<1p_{T}^{rel}<1. The waveform attenuate phenomena is observed in pTrelp_{T}^{rel}, girthgirth and DgirthD_{girth} distributions. The comparison results on DgirthD_{girth} from pppp to Pb+PbPb+Pb where the wave-like distribution in pppp collision is ahead of Pb+PbPb+Pb collisions in small jet-radius intervals, is interesting to hint the medium effect.
