Investigation of high p${}_t$ events in Nucleus-Nucleus collisions using the Hijing event generator

Abstract

In recent years lot of interest has been observed in the nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC energies in phenomena related to high $p_t$ physics \cite{ref1}. The suppression of high $p_t$ particles and disappearance of back-to-back jets compared to the scaling with number of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions indicates that a nearly perfect liquid is produced in these collisions. Results on self shadowing of high $p_t$ events are presented using hadron multiplicity associated to high $p_t$ and unbiased events in nucleus-nucleus collisions \cite{ref2} obtained from the hijing event generator.
