Possible Asymmetry of Particle Distribution Around Axes of Hard Jets in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
arXiv:hep-ph/9705326
Abstract
We discuss a possible new manifestation of the formation of an initial nonequilibrium flux tube stage in high energy heavy ion collisions. It is shown that a strong asymmetry in particle distributions around axes of hard-transverse jets takes place due to a large difference between longitudinal and transverse forces acting on the hardly scattered quarks or gluons crossing the flux tubes.
