Jiechen Xu (Columbia University)4/10/15, 2:00 PMtalkIn ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC, high energy jet fragments' nuclear modification factor ($R_{AA}$) and azimuthal anisotropy ($v_2$) provide a stringent set of observables in constraining the parton-medium interactions. We present a new jet quenching framework, CUJET3.0, that is shown to simultaneously account for both high $p_T$ single inclusive hadron’s $R_{AA}$ and...Go to contribution page

Dr Daniel Tapia Takaki (University of Kansas)4/10/15, 2:20 PMtalkProtons and ions accelerated by the LHC carry an electromagnetic field, which acts as a source of photons. The beam energy at the LHC makes it the most energetic photon source ever built. The interaction of such high-energy photons with nuclei (or protons) can be studied in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions, where the impact parameter is larger than the sum of the nuclear radii and...Go to contribution page

Mr Raghav Kunnawalkam Elayavalli (Rutgers University)4/10/15, 2:40 PMtalkThe quark gluon plasma is a phase of matter produced during collisions of ultra relativistic heavy ions which the CMS detector is able to study in collisions of lead ions (PbPb). A clear signature of the QGP is the apparent suppression in the inclusive jet transverse momentum when compared with a reference proton-proton (pp) system. Dijet studies in PbPb have confirmed that the reduced yield...Go to contribution page

Mr Shahin Iqbal (University of Virginia)4/10/15, 3:20 PMtalkGluon bremsstrahlung is the dominant process through which high energy particles loose their energy in a Quark Gluon plasma. Calculations of the bremsstrahlung rate are complicated by interference between radiation from multiple collisions, giving rise to the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect. Previous authors have analysed the case where the coherence lengths of two consecutive emissions...Go to contribution page
