High pT Azimuthal Asymmetry in Non-central A+A at RHIC
Miklos Gyulassy, Ivan Vitev, Xin-Nian Wang
Abstract
The high p T>3 GeV azimuthal asymmetry, v2(p T), in non-central nuclear collisions at RHIC is shown to be a sensitive measure of the initial parton density distribution of the produced quark-gluon plasma. A generalization of the Gyulassy-Levai-Vitev (GLV) non-abelian energy loss formalism including Bjorken 1+1D expansion as well as important kinematic constraints is used.
