The conventional method to treat heavy-ion collisions is relativistic hydrodynamics---- which can be tuned to reproduce data.
There is no proof that it is the only way (necessary)---- can only demonstrate that it is a
possible way (sufficient).
We propose another possible way---- minijets and recombination.
An area of focus is about Ridgeswhich is an interesting phenomenon in its own right.

From the data on ridge, we learn that1. Ridge is correlated to jets (detected or
undetected).2. Ridge is due to medium effect near the surface.3. Ridge is from the thermal source enhanced by
energy loss by semihard partons traversing the medium.
4. Geometry affects the ridge yield.On the basis of these phenomenological properties we build a theoretical treatment of the ridge.But first we outline the theoretical framework that describes the formation of hadrons from quarks.

Now, back to Ridge.How do we relate ridge to TT, TS, SS recombination?
Recall what we have learned from the ridge data:1. Ridge is correlated to jets (detected or
undetected).2. Ridge is due to medium effect near the surface.3. Ridge is from the thermal source enhanced by
energy loss by semihard partons traversing the medium.
4. Geometry affects the ridge yield.

Ridge is from enhanced thermal source caused by semi-hard scattering.

The medium expands during the successive soft emission process, and carries the enhanced thermal partons along the flow.
Hard parton directed at s , loses energy along the way, and enhances thermal partons in the vicinity of the path.
s
But parton direction s and flow direction are not necessarily the same.
s
Reinforcement of emission effect leads to a cone that forms the ridge around the flow direction .
If not, then the effect of soft emission is spread out over a range of surface area, thus the ridge formation is weakened.

How is this untriggered ridge related to the triggered ridge on the near side of correlation measurement?

Semihard partons drive the azimuthal asymmetry with a dependence that can be calculated from geometry. (next slide)

Minijet approachIf minijets are created within 1 fm from the surface, they get out before the medium is equilibrated.More in the x
direction than in the y directionTheir effects on hadronization
have azimuthal anisotropy
We can show agreement with v2 data in this approach also--- with no more parameters used than in hydro
and without assumption about rapid thermalization
asymmetry can be expanded in harmonics:ρ(pT ,φ,b) = ρ0 (pT ,b)[1+ 2v2 (pT ,b)cos(2φ) + ...]

The pT range is too low for reliable pQCD, too high for hydrodynamics.Shower partons due to minijets are crucial in understanding the nature of hadronic spectra. TS and TTS recombination provides a smooth transition from low to high pT --- from exponential to power-law behavior.
40
ConclusionStudy of Ridge and Minijets gives us insight into the dynamical process of hadronization:
Ridge in TT reco with enhanced T due to minijetsAzimuthal anisotropy (v2) can be well reproduced without hydrodynamics.
As is increased from RHIC to LHC, S is significantly higher.
s
Spectra of all species of hadrons are well explained by TT, TTT, TS, TTS, TSS, SS, SSS recombination.
Minijets at LHC cannot be ignored --- even at low pT.
41
At LHC the Higgs boson may have been found.But in Pb-Pb collisions, nothing so spectacular has been discovered.
Most observables seem to be smooth extrapolations from RHIC in ways that have been foreseen.Can we think of anything that is really extraordinary? --- unachievable at lower energies
e.g., a strange nugget? solid evidence against something?
