Autocorrelation of Hadrons in Jets Produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions

Abstract

Autocorrelation of two pions produced in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate $p_T$ is calculated in the framework of the recombination model. The differences of the pseudo-rapidities and azimuthal angles of the two pions are related to the angle between two shower partons in a jet. It is shown how the autocorrelation distribution reveals the properties of jet cone of the shower partons created by high-$p_T$ partons in hard collisions.
