High Azimuthal Asymmetry in Non-central A+A at RHIC

arXiv:nucl-th/0012092 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.86.2537

Abstract

The high GeV azimuthal asymmetry, , in non-central nuclear collisions at RHIC is shown to be a sensitive measure of the initial parton density distribution of the produced quark-gluon plasma. A generalization of the Gyulassy-Levai-Vitev (GLV) non-abelian energy loss formalism including Bjorken 1+1D expansion as well as important kinematic constraints is used.
