For low pT region Au+Au shape in is b

For high pT region shape/yield is simil

The ridge component is important to ~4 GeV/c

Jet fragmentation takes over at higher pT.

At SPS Smaller jet quenching+Stronger Cronin

-> Less suppression in Head Smaller medium component

-> Smaller ridge/ Shoulder

RAA at SPS is totally different, dominated by Cronin effect

Ridge is almost gone at SPS energy, the shoulder due to kT broadening?Energy scan is important!

IAA not symmetric wrt trigger/partner pT selection

Near-side

Since one particle is high pT, hadron pair come from jets emitted near surface The second particle in the pair also comes from surface.

But the low pT triggers in per-trigger yield include all soft hadrons.

Models for medium response Production mechanisms of associated hadrons

New particle creation: feedback of shower gluons, cerenkov gluons

Local heating: bending jet, momentum kick, Mach cone, backsplash, Glasma bending, coupling to transverse or longitudinal flow etc.

Residual correlations with geometry: elliptic flow (subtracted), correlation between radial flow boosted beam and surfaced emitted transverse jet.

Easier to generate large yield by pickup from the bulk (since no particle production is required)

We know the pair yield is enhanced at low pt. Supported by the property of the ridge/cone (PID, slope etc)

Mechanisms for ridge and shoulder may well be related.

25Jiangyong Jia, QM2008, Feb. 8, Jaipur

Final remarks: Jet quenching & medium response

Jet @ High pT, surface biased, eloss mechanism is constrained indirectly from those with little eloss

Medium response @ Low pT, no surface bias, directly sensitive to energy loss process.

The energy loss mechanism affects characteristics of medium response, example:

collisional/radiative <-> momentum kick/gluon feedback. Different medium response mechanism may require diffe

rent energy loss scenario. Energy loss and energy dissipation to the medium

are modeled separately. But there shouldn’t be a strict separation of scale, especially for intermediate pT.

Need a unified framework that include both jet quenching & medium response, and can describe correlation data at all pT.

loss By combing IAA and RAA, one gain some

sensitivity on energy loss.
