Interactions between jets and medium Jets influenced by medium Medium influenced by jets? Near side: ridge Away side: double bump
dividing the away-side jet function into equal-sized head (|φ − π| < π/6, HR) and shoulder (π/6 < |φ − π| <π/2, SR) regions, as indicated in (c).
Recombination models • Hadrons formed by combining two (three) constituent quarks • Combining probabilities, determined by wave functions, called the recombination functions • There are soft and hard partons • Hard parton will lose energy in traversing the medium • Hard partons evolve into semi-hard showers
Relevant partonic and hadronic variables Position of hard scattering can be different Hard momentum k=k’ fluctuates
Degraded parton distribution with fixed length L Only parameter L
Upper and lower limits in the integration correspond to t=0 and L
Fix the parameter L=2.9
Centrality dependence Determine =L distribution for each centrality Not a geometrical problem No first principle can be used
