Medium Modification of Jet Fragmentation inAu+AuCollisions atsNN=200

Abstract: The jet fragmentation function is measured with direct photon-hadron correlations in p+p and Au+Au collisions at √[s(NN)]=200 GeV. The p(T) of the photon is an excellent approximation to the initial p(T) of the jet and the ratio z(T)=p(T)(h)/p(T)(γ) is used as a proxy for the jet fragmentation function. A statistical subtraction is used to extract the direct photon-hadron yields in Au+Au collisions while a photon isolation cut is applied in p+p. I(AA), the ratio of hadron yield opposite the photon in Au+Au to … Show more

“…By contrast, at RHIC energies, measurements based on correlations of hadrons with leading reconstructed jets or non-decay (direct) photons indicate that the lost energy remains much closer to the jet axis [15,16], suggesting only a moderate broadening of the jet structure for all but the softest constituents. The difference between the RHIC and LHC energy results could be due to a number of different reasons; both the details of the experimental analyses and the mean parton kinematics being probed at the two facilities differ significantly.…”

“…With the understanding of the transverse distribution of intra-jet particles through the studies of jet shapes and cross sections, it would be interesting to study the modification of their longitudinal distribution to gain orthogonal information about the in-medium parton shower [17,18,131,132]. We leave the studies of jet fragmentation function modification using the SCET formulation [120,133,134], as well as the modification of jet masses [135][136][137][138] which probes the jet formation mechanism at the soft scale, for future work.…”

“…This Letter presents such a measurement of the FF in high-p T jets azimuthally balanced by a prompt, isolated photon in pp and Pb+Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair, using data samples with integrated luminosities of 25 pb −1 and 0.49 nb −1 , respectively. Photon-hadron p T correlations in gold-gold collisions were measured at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider [19,20]. A measurement of the γ-tagged jet FF at the LHC compared the FF at detector level with theoretical calculations that parameterize the detector smearing effects [21].Following previous measurements in ATLAS [5,6], the FF for a jet to contain a charged particle with a given p T , η and φ [22] is expressed as D(p T ) = (1/N jet )(dN ch (p T )/dp T ) or D(z) = (1/N jet )(dN ch (z)/dz) where N jet is the total number of jets, N ch is the number of charged particles associated with a jet, and the longitudinal momentum fraction, z, is defined as p T cos (∆R) /p jet T , ∆R = ((η jet − η part ) 2 + (φ jet − φ part ) 2 ) 1/2 .…”
