Deep learning assisted jet tomography for the study of Mach cones in QGP

Abstract

Mach cones are expected to form in the expanding quark-gluon plasma (QGP) when energetic quarks and gluons (called jets) traverse the hot medium at a velocity faster than the speed of sound in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The shape of the Mach cone and the associated diffusion wake are sensitive to the initial jet production location and the jet propagation direction relative to the radial flow because of the distortion by the collective expansion of the QGP and large density gradient. The shape of jet-induced Mach cones and their distortions in heavy-ion collisions provide a unique and direct probe of the dynamical evolution and the equation of state of QGP. However, it is difficult to identify the Mach cone and the diffusion wake in current experimental measurements of final hadron distributions because they are averaged over all possible initial jet production locations and propagation directions. To overcome this difficulty, we develop a deep learning assisted jet tomography which uses the full information of the final hadrons from jets to localize the initial jet production positions. This method can help to constrain the initial regions of jet production in heavy-ion collisions and enable a differential study of Mach-cones with different jet path length and orientation relative to the radial flow of the QGP in heavy-ion collisions.
