Low-pT Collective Flow Induces High-pT Jet Quenching
arXiv:hep-ph/0411341 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.72.064910
Abstract
Data on low-pT hadronic spectra are widely regarded as evidence of a hydrodynamic expansion in nucleus-nucleus collisions. In this interpretation, different hadron species emerge from a common medium that has built up a strong collective velocity field. Here, we show that the existence of a collective flow field implies characteristic modifications of high-pT parton fragmentation. We generalize the formalism of parton energy loss to the case of flow-induced, oriented momentum transfer. We also discuss how to embed this calculation in hydrodynamic simulations. Flow effects are found to result generically in characteristic asymmetries in the eta-phi-plane of jet energy distributions and of multiplicity distributions associated to high-pT trigger particles. But collective flow also contributes to the medium-induced suppression of single inclusive high-pT hadron spectra. In particular, we find that low-pT elliptic flow can induce a sizeable additional contribution to the high-pT azimuthal asymmetry by selective elimination of those hard partons which propagate with significant inclination against the flow field. This reduces at least partially the recently observed problem that models of parton energy loss tend to underpredict the large azimuthal asymmetry v2 of high-pT hadronic spectra in semi-peripheral Au+Au collisions.
