151. No Pain, no Gain? Hard Probes of Quark-Gluon Plasma Coming of Age

Berndt Mueller (Duke University)

Oral presentation

Hard QCD and QED probes hold the promise of providing controlled, rigorously calculable means of interrogating hot and dense QCD Matter, measuring its properties and determining its structure. While the RHIC has opened hard probes to experimental investigation, the LHC has extended the range of hard probe measurements by an order of magnitude. Data on jets, high-pT hadrons, quarkonia,...

153. Jet quenching and heavy flavor production in ATLAS

Aaron Angerami (Columbia University)

28/05/2012, 09:45

Oral presentation

Measurements of inclusive jet and heavy quark jet suppression in relativistic heavy ion collisions are presented. The measurements were performed using Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$~TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC during the 2010 Pb ion run. Results are obtained using calorimetrically reconstructed jets using the anti-kt algorithm with a per-event background...

58. Jet quenching and energy loss in CMS

Christof Roland (MIT)

Oral presentation

The energy loss of fast partons in hot and dense nuclear matter is studied in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. Detailed studies of the dijet momentum balance and angular correlations are performed as a function of collision centrality and leading jet transverse momentum up to 350 GeV/c. Dijets in central collisions are...
