Distributions of Charged Hadrons Associated with High pT Particles

Abstract

Recent results from STAR on angular correlations of charged hadrons associated with high transverse momentum particles are presented. Emphasis is put on the correlations of soft associated hadrons, which provide rich information on the properties of the bulk medium created in RHIC collisions. The results are discussed in the context of three pertinent questions regarding QGP formation: sufficient energy density, parton thermalization, and deconfinement.
