Two particle azimuthal correlations at high transverse momentum in Pb-Au at 158 AGeV/c

Abstract

The analysis of two-particle azimuthal angular correlations at high transverse momentum from Pb+Au collisions at 158 AGeV/c at SPS reveals substantial modifications of the away-side peak as compared to the distributions from p+p reactions. The data recorded with the CERES Time-Projection Chamber, which provides excellent tracking efficiency, suggest that the observed modification of the back-to-back structure implies significant re-interactions of the scattered partons within the medium. These findings at top SPS energy show features qualitatively similar to the results obtained at RHIC from Au+Au collisions at s = 200 GeV/c and Cu+Cu collisions at s = 62 GeV/c. We present the centrality and charge dependent conditional di-jet yields for similar transverse momentum windows as investigated by the RHIC experiments
