Outline • Motivation: Jets in heavy-ion collisions • Jets in (3+1)d ideal hydrodynamics • Different energy-momentum deposition models • Particle Correlation Pattern • Conclusions & Outlook Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Jet Quenching & Medium Response 4 < pTtrigger < 6 GeV/c 0.15 < pTassoc < 4 GeV/c STAR, Nucl. Phys. A774, 129 (2006) • Jet suppression: signal for QGP 4 < pTtrigger < 6 GeV/c pTassoc > 2 GeV/c • Re-appearance of the away-side for low and intermediate pTassoc STAR PRL 91 (2003) 072304 Au+Au / p+p = 200 GeV PHENIX arXiv:0705.3238 [nucl-ex] • Peaks reflect interaction of jet with medium Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Jets and Deposition Scenarios • Solve numerically (3+1)d ideal hydrodynamics: • Source term given by jet energy loss • Different models describing jet energy loss R. Baier et al., Nucl. Phys.

Deposition Scenarios in Hydro We use: • Pure energy deposition • Pure momentum deposition • Energy and momentum deposition Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Jets in (3+1)d Ideal Hydro • Neglect near-side jet • Study jet evolution in a homogeneous, non– expanding background • Bag model EoS for QGP • Energy-momentum deposition for • Isochronous freeze-out at Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Pure Energy Deposition I Need high–pT cuts Otherwise thermal smearing washes out signal due to high background temperature Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Pure Energy Deposition II Higher value for signal seen already for smaller pT Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Pure Energy Deposition III Cone–like structure for small–pT cuts Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Pure Energy Deposition IV • Pure Energy Deposition • Mach cone pattern • More pronounced: • higher or pT • consistent with J. C.-S. et al. J. Casalderrey-Solana et al., Nucl. Phys. A 774, 577 (2006) Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Pure Momentum Deposition Diffusion wake causes • Disappearance of Mach cone–like pattern • peak in forward direction Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Energy & Momentum Deposition I Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Energy & Momentum Deposition II • Mach cone–like pattern for J. Casalderrey-Solana et al. J. Casalderrey-Solana et al., Nucl. Phys. A 774, 577 (2006) Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
Conclusions & Outlook Mach cone correlation pattern • appears only if otherwise: Diffusion wake kills the Mach cone–like pattern • is not visible for cuts similar to experiment if Further investigations: • realistic energy–momentum deposition scenario • expanding medium Barbara Betz Quark Matter 2008, Jaipur, India
