Charge Particle Angular Correlations from Leading Photons at RHIC

Abstract

We report on the observation of jet-like azimuthal and pseudorapidity correlations between the highest $p_T$ photon (leading photon) and charged hadrons produced in both p+p and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV.
