Nuclear dependence asymmetries in direct photon production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We study the nuclear dependences of high-pTp_T jet cross sections in one photon and one jet production in proton-nucleus collisions. We find that there exist asymmetries between the outgoing jets and photons. A convincing reason responsible for those asymmetries are demonstrated in perturbative QCD. Significant nuclear enhancements are also found in the inclusive jet cross sections.
