Azimuthal Correlations: h+h TriggerParticle Back side C(ΔΦ) Sameside Associated Particles BKG = B(1+2v2(pTasso)v2(pTtrig)cos(2)) CARTOON flow+jet A+A flow jet p+p hPt hadorn tagged (triggered) jet • p+p : z=pTassociated/pTtrigger Fragmentation function: • A+A: distribution of particles associated with a trigger aftermedium modification have to disentangle the ‘jet’ component from the global ‘flow’
Azimuthal Correlations: Z0/γ*+jet The DILEPTON is the tag BKG = B(1+2v2(pTasso)v2(pTtrig)cos(2)) no flow for dilepton flat global background • pTjet ~ pTZ0/γ* jet energy determined • no ambiguities (π0->2γ, η etc) like in γ+jet
Theory: γ+jet z = pT/pjet Wang, Huang, Sarcevic PRL 77, 231 (1996) Wang, Huang PRC 55, 3047 (1997) • measure D(z) in pp and AA • λa (parton inelastic scattering mean free path) dEa/dx (parton energy loss) Arleo et al (hep-ph/0410088), Arleo(hep-ph/0601075): γ-π0 and γ-γ correlations medium modified fragmentation functions Energy loss models (GLV, BDMS etc) connect partonic energy loss to fundamental properties of the medium – gluon density, system size etc

Reduce background: DCA If we assume a dca resolution in σrφ~20μm and σz~50μm Statistical error bars • can identify (reject) ~80% of the heavy background • pT dependent trend?
Before the end … • Use a weakly interacting probe (Z0/γ*(l+l-)+jet) to tackle the properties of a strong interacting medium weak is good (this time) • Advantages over ‘traditional’ h-h, γ-h analyses: no flow, no high pT limit etc. • ‘Smallish’ rates you can’t have everything (rates, high pT reach and purity) in life La vita seems to be bella nevertheless …
