Is RAA also Asymmetric ? arXiv:1404.1873 CNM = EPS09 + 4mb breakup • Cu-going probes small-x in Au • Au-going probes small-x in Cu • initial state effects cause R to decreasewith centrality • Final state effects causes more suppression in Au-going side • Final state effects should increase R with centrality R = Cu-going RAA / Au-going RAA Awaiting for a full model calculation including different CNM and QGP sources.
