Nuclear Physics Seminar

"Searching for conical emission in A+A collisions at RHIC"

Presented by Claude Pruneau, Wayne State University

Tuesday, May 5, 2009, 11:00 am — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

Mach cone shock waves are predicted to be produced by the passage of high pt partons in the QGP produced in A+A collisions at RHIC. The shock wave is further predicted to produce particles at characteristic angles relative to the parton direction. I will present measurements of two- and three- particle correlations designed to identify the presence of conical emission and discussed their limitations and interpretation.
