Evolution of the Away-Side Jet Shapes in pi0-h Correlations in 200 GeV Au+Au Collisions with RHIC-PHENIX

Abstract

Two-particle azimuthal correlations have allowed detailed study of the modification to di-jets in the hot, dense medium created in RHIC collisions. Light can be shed by such correlations on many novel effects discovered at RHIC such as the enhanced p/pi ratio and conical structure of events with energy loss. Using pi0 triggers to reduce the effect of recombination we utilize high-pT correlations to explore the away-side structure.
