Jet-temperature anisotropy revealed through high-$p_\perp$ data

Nuclear Theory 2022-10-26 v2 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

We explore to what extent, and how, high-pp_\perp data and predictions reflect the shape and anisotropy of the QCD medium formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. To this end, we use our recently developed DREENA-A framework, which can accommodate any temperature profile within the dynamical energy loss formalism. We show that the ratio of high-pp_\perp v2v_2 and (1RAA)(1-R_{AA}) predictions reaches a well-defined saturation value, which is directly proportional to the time-averaged anisotropy of the evolving QGP, as seen by the jets.
