Rapidity-dependent jet energy loss in small systems with finite-size effects and running coupling

Abstract

Longitudinal dynamics of particle production and rapidity-dependent jet energy loss are investigated in small and asymmetric colliding systems. We utilize an improved version of \textsc{martini} in which two improvements are implemented to calculate the effect of the strongly coupled QGP droplet on jet energy loss. We show that those realistic prescriptions improve the results of nuclear modification factor calculations. We also observe visible energy loss of jets in a thermal background of high-multiplicity p-Pb collisions, and a clear correlation between the energy loss and elliptic flow coefficients for energetic particles. We conclude that systematic measurements of jet quenching in central collisions of small systems can support the formation of the QGP droplet.
