Distributions of Charged Hadrons Associated with High Transverse Momentum Particles in pp and Au+Au Collisions at sqrt(sNN)=200 GeV
STAR Collaboration
Abstract
Charged hadrons in 0.15 < pt < 4 GeV/c associated with particles of pttrig > 4 GeV/c are reconstructed in pp and Au+Au collisions at sqrt(sNN)=200 GeV. The associated multiplicity and pt magnitude sum are found to increase from pp to central Au+Au collisions. The associated pt distributions, while similar in shape on the near side, are significantly softened on the away side in central Au+Au relative to pp and not much harder than that of inclusive hadrons. The results, consistent with jet quenching, suggest that the away-side fragments approach equilibration with the medium traversed.
