  3. I. Quenching of leading particles • Jet quenching: suppression of inclusive particle production relative to a binary scaled p+p result M. Gyulassy, et al. (1992) • Jet quenching in A+A collisions has been regarded as one of the most important discoveries at RHIC • Tested against alternative suggestions: CGC and hadronic transport models ✓ • Phenomenologically very successful ✓ • Difficulty in distinguishing between models and theories ✗ • New observables, physics reach extended at the LHC and also RHIC ✗ Adler, S. et al (2003) Adams, J. et al. (2003)

  4. I. Toward jet physics results in A+A reactions at RHIC and LHC • Jet physics results are becoming available in nuclear collisions • Allow for new insights in the in-medium parton dynamics • Should be understood in conjunction with leading particle suppression ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, PHENIX, STAR (2008-2011)

  5. I. Open questions in jet quenching theory In order of increasing importance • Improve upon the kinematics of the effective scattering centers in the medium, both light and heavy scattering centers • Calculate the large x=k+/p+ correction to the soft bremsstrahlung, i.e. improve the calculation of the medium-induced parton splitting • Construct a modern effective theory of jet interactions in matter • Prove the gauge invariance of the jet broadening and radiative energy loss results • Demonstrate the factorization of the final-state radiative corrections form the hard scattering E Full Theory A suitable framework is Soft Collinear Effective Theory DOF in FT Q Effective Theory DOF in EFT C. Bauer et al. (2001)

  6. II. The status of higher-order calculations in p+p • Very few processes are known at NNLO. Final states such as the Higgs and Drell-Yan C. Anastasiou et al. (2009) Exact matrix elements: FO ✓PS ✗ Precision: FO✓PS✗ Hard region description: FO✓PS✗ Soft region description: FO✗PS✓ Large final states: FO✗PS ✓ medium vacuum J. Campbel (2009) We will present results consistently to O(αs3), O(αs2αs)

  7. II. Inclusive jet cross sections at NLO and p+p results • Includes 2- and 3-parton final states S.D. Ellis et al. (1990) Z. Kunszt et al. (1992) • At one loop – jet size/algorithm dependence • Excellent description of the cross sections at RHIC and the LHC • Strong R dependence ~ ln( R/R0) I.Vitev et al. (2009) Y.He et al. (2011)

  8. III. Exploting the jet variables in heavy-ion collisions • One can leverage the differences between the vacuum parton showers, the medium-induced showers and the medium response to jets to experimental signatures of parton interaction in matter I.Vitev et al. (2008) • Calculations at NLO

  9. III. Inclusive jet cross sections in A+A reactions • Jet cross sections with cold nuclear matter and final-state parton energy loss effect are calculated for different R • Calculate in real time Fraction of the energy redistributed inside the jet The probability to lose energy due to multiple gluon emission I. Vitev et al (2008) • Calculate

  10. III. Jet cross sections in A+A reactions at RHIC and LHC • Jet RAA with cold nuclear matter and final-state parton energy loss effect are calculated for different R Y. Lai (2009) I. Vitev et al (2009) RAA – CNM effects, QGP quenching and R dependence in p+p σ(R1)/σ(R2) in A+A – QGP quenching and R dependence in p+p Y. He et al. (2011) K. Amadot et al. (2011)

  11. III. QGP – modified jet shapes • Surprisingly, there is no big difference between the jet shape in vacuum and the total jet shape in the medium • Take a ratio of the differential jet shapes 20 GeV 50 GeV 100 GeV 200 GeV I. Vitev et al. (2008)

  12. III. Parton showers as sources of energy deposition in the QGP • The first theory calculation to describe a splitting parton system as a source term, including quantum color interference effects • Think of it schematically as the energy transferred to the QGP through collisional interactions at scales ~ T, gT, … R.B. Neufeld et al. (2011) • Calculated diagrammatically from the divergence of the energy-momentum tensor (EMT) • Simple intuitive interpretation of the result • 10-20 GeV from the shower energy can be transmitted to the QGP • See poster by Bryon Neufeld

  13. III. The ambiguity of jet/background separation • There is no first-principles understanding of heavy ion dynamics at all scales and consequently jet/medium separation • Background fluctuations may affect jet observabled • Part of the jet energy may be misinterpreted as background • It may also diffuse outside R through collisional processes M. Cacciari et al. (2011) In our approach we can simulate these scenarios with the cut pTmin • Caneasily wipe out the R dependence of jet observables (also for di-jets) Constrain NP corrections in p+p Y. He et al. (2011)

  14. III. Tagged jet at NLO with strong momentum constraints • Goal: precisely constrain the energy of the leading recoil jet [e.g. through lepton pair decays] to pinpoint parton energy loss. Exact result at LO T. Awes et al. (2003) • At NLO Z-strahlung and parton splitting compromise the tagging power of electroweak bosons • Induce +/- 25% uncertainty • At least NLO accuracy is necessary to study Z0-tagged and photon-tagged jets • Mean pT and standard deviation for Z0-tagged jets at the LHC B. Neufeld et al. (2010)

  15. III. Quenching of Z0/γ*- tagged jets at the LHC, inclusive Z0 • Quenched Z0-tagged jet cross section • Inclusive Z0 production has also been evaluated Strong redistribution of the energy andenhanced IAAbelow the trigger pT R.B. Neufeld et al. (2010) S.Chatrchyan et al. (2011) • Associated with the part of phase space of quickly increasing with pT cross section Isospin +3%, CNM energy loss -6%

  16. III. NLO results for di-jets in p+p collisions at the LHC • We have adapted the NLO EKS code to calculate the di-jet cross section • The most important feature is how broad it is in ET1, ET2 • Limits the amount of additional asymmetry that can be generated by the QGP • The di-jet assymetry is a derivativeobservable • Excellent description in p+p collisions Y.He et al. (2011)

  17. III. Calculating the di-jet suppression • The suppressed di-jet cross section is calculated as follows (differentially over the collisions geometry, L1 L2, Real time P(ε) ) • Generalized multi-jet suppression • Characteristic features: broad flat suppression and transition to strong enhancement Y. He et al. (2011)

  18. III. Results for enhanced di-jet asymmetry at the LHC Y. He et al. (2011) • Only about 30%-50% of the additional asymmetry can be explained by the radiative processes • The remainder may be related to the jet/background ambigutiy, fluctuation or thermalization of the parton shower • A peak at finite AJ is not compatible with NLO calculations due to the broad E1 E2 distribution

  19. VI. Relation between jet and leading particle quenching • Include the quenched parton and the radiative gluon fragmentation • Still LO, predicted 2002 2006 – growing RAA at high pT I. Vitev et al. (2002) I. Vitev (2006)

  20. VI. Soft Collinear Effective Theory • Galuber gluons (transverse to the jet direction ) A. Majumder et al. (2009) G. Ovanesyan et al. (2011) • CompleteFeynman rules in the soft, collinear and hybrid gauges • First proof of gauge invariance of the broadening/radiative energy loss results Many more … • Showed factorization of the final-state process-dependent radiative corrections and the hard scattering cross section, calculated large-x • See poster by G. Ovanesyan

  21. Summary of references for presented work

  22. Conclusions • Presented NLO results for inclusive jet production at RHIC and the LHC, Z0-tagged jets and di-jets at the LHC. Showed that this level of accuracy is critical for the new jet observables • Jet measurements at RHIC and the LHC are strongly suggestive of the quenching scenario. However, a consistent picture has not emerged yet. There are difficulties is separating the jets from the QGP background. Only part of the features of the di-jet asymmetry may be understood in the jet quenching picture. A suite of measurements is necessary to form a solid physics understanding of the jet processes in QCD matter at high energies and densities • Derived the differential energy and momentum transfer between a splitting parton system and the QGP(or the source term). Found that a significant part of the shower energy may be thermalized. Showed that in-medium parton showers are unlikely sources of well-defined conical signatures

  23. Conclusions • Developed an effective theory of jet propagation in matter. Proved gauge invariance of the jet broadening and energy loss results. Showed factorization of the medium-induced radiative corrections for the hard scattering, accurate results beyond the soft gluon approximation. • Predictions for leading particle suppression in agreement with data. Gluon “feedback” is very important at the LHC. With the present baseline uncertainty it is not clear if different jet-medium coupling is necessary. Even if it is, the differences with RHIC will be small • In the future we will expand the NLO calculations to leading particles. We will evaluate all necessary splitting processes in SCETG . We will improve the accuracy of energy loss/jet quenching calculations and investigate in detail the suppression of leading particles (NLO)

  28. III. Why are Mach cones initiated by jets unlikely • An individual parton (or a collinear system) can produce a Mach cone on an event by event basis. Multiple events will reduce the observable effect • Typical medium-induced shower multiplicities are Ng=4 (quark) and Ng=8 (gluon) and emitted at large angles ~ 0.7 (much larger than in the vcuum) • Each parton quickly becomes an individual source of excitation and these multiple sources wipe out any conical signature I.
