STAR HardProbes PWG

[Rosi Reed <rosijreed AT lehigh.edu>]

Hi Tristan,

This is looking quite nice.  Probably you should mention Tong's results somewhere (I believe he's the talk right before you).  I haven't been following - are there any other isobar results coming out this week? (this question to everyone)

Slide 3: fragmets -> fragments

Slide 5: I'd remove "uncorrelated" from the background, since the background is indirectly correlated through the EP. 

Slide 6: select on jets -> select jets

Slide 8: Indicate this is Au+Au, I know it's written in the legend but it might be easy for someone to miss. 

Slide 9: each jet passed through -> each jet interacted with

collision -> collisions

Slide 13: My mistake - complementary should be complementarity.  I shouldn't make comments before coffee.

Perhaps include the total number of collisions? That could be interesting.

Slide 14: Include the trigger threshold in GeV.

Slide 20: It's not complete, so medium sized systems will be very useful. Or something like this.

Cheers,

Rosi

Hello Nihar, 

An updated draft has been uploaded.  I believe I have kept up on the conversation between you and Rosi while I was working on these changes, please let me know if I missed something. 

1) Have you updated your remaining sys uncertainty that we were waiting
for?

No, my jobs are still processing, they seem to be moving through rather slowly compared to what I am used to.  I took a quick look at what has been produced so far and it seems consistent with the existing measurement.  

2)Comments on Figures:
Slide18 fig:
1. You don't need to put description of "ALCIE sys bands like correlated
and uncorrelated etc" One green circle is enough to represent ALICE
results.
2. Please include instead STAR sys box's description  in legend
I have added a label for STARs systematics, but did not remove the ALICE legend

Slide17 fig:
_ Can you include v2 value (with uncertainty) in this figure that you
get from the fitting?

It was a deliberate choice not to since the v2 of the fit is the observed v2, not corrected for the event plane resolution.  I felt it would be confusing to quote one value there and then on the next slide show a different value for the bin.  


3) Additional comment:
I think EPD is used for the first time in jet v2 measurement.
It would be good to include EP resolution plot that you get from this
measurement.
For that you can combine slide15-16 to make a story for EPD and EP
calculation.

I had moved the slide on EPD resolution to the backup for time, what I think I could do is move the diagram of the EPD on slide 16 to slide 15, and instead have a resolution plot in its place. 

I will remake the resolution plot to better fit the space available, but this will take a little time soI leave it as is for now.


4) Slide18(in vesrion4):
"Suggests that jet modification is path-length dependent, even in medium
sized systems!"
Can you please elaborate how we draw the conclusion of " jet
modification is path-length dependent" in Isobar ?
We don't have any hard-core jet RAA/RCP measurement in isobar. Do we
have?

Throughout this talk I have been motivating the idea that if we have a non-zero jet v2, then the jets in plane and out of plane (which experience a different length through the medium)  are modified different amounts.  Hence, path length dependent jet modification.  

We can only say so far (from this preliminary study) what you have
mentioned in conclusion slide19 (with slight modification "hint…")
"Hint of non-zero v2^ch jet is observed in a medium sized system "

Please bring this statement in slide18

Changed the last bullet to "Evidence of non-zero v2 in a medium sized system"

5) Slide19(v4 version)
_"A very different system!" -> "A very different kinematic range and
system size"

Changed. 
_"v2ch jet is observed despite the introduced surface bias" -> "v2ch jet
is observed despite the possible surface bias"

Changed
    I would be careful on this statement, as I mentioned we have not done
any dijet Aj study in Isobar to support of the surfaced bias jet
selection. It could be correct but we have not done any measurement so
we should abstain mentioning this.
If you want, then need to do Aj measurement for this hard core jet
selection in Isobar.

I have changed the wording as suggested to be less strong, however I feel it is still important to bring up.  Either there is a surface bias introduced, in which case it is a little surprising we observed jet v2 at all, or there isn't a surface bias like we see in Au+Au, in which case our understanding of jet measurements is incomplete.  

_"Our picture of jet quenching is not complete - there is still much to
discover"
       Sounds a vague statement. Please mention 1) what is not completed
relating to jet quenching? 2) what do you think that needs to be
discovered?  Please elaborate this

Elaborated to explain that it seems jet v2 may not be only a path length effect, as it is in our usual picture of jet quenching.  .

Still it is not clear and confusing for 1st and 3rd bullets.
If you want to motivate jet (which pQCD calculable) and this is used to
probe QGP (which is asymptotic region of coupling); then what is the
point to mention "alpha_s ~ O(1) at low Q^2."
I would suggest to rephrase;
"Since running coupling is asymptotically small at high Q^2,  pQCD
calculable probes are used to study the QGP medium"
Then you don't need 3rd bullet.

The point of mentioning the strong coupling at low Q2 is to explain why we cannot simply use perturbative calculations to study the QGP, and instead need a different probe like jets.  If there is nothing factually wrong, I would prefer to keep this.  

Slide4 (current  v4)
_ "We are interested in understanding the path-length dependence of
these processes" -> "We are interested in understanding the path-length
dependence of jet quenching"
Changed
_"Both collisional and radiative" -> "Both collisional and radiative
energy loss" or "Parton energy loss via both collisional and radiative
processes"

Changed

Slide 5

Then it would good to mention, "Soft processes produce a fluctuating
uncorrelated background for jet measurement in heavy-ion collisions"
Here "uncorrelated" is important.

Added uncorrelated.  

Slide5 (current v4), right figure is from STAR data or any model? No
description mentioned there.

Added description

slide8(in v4)
_ we are doing inclusive hard-core jet v2 measurement here. Is not it?
_I am not convinced to motivate with dijet measurement here. Are we
going to do any dijet measurement in isobar?
_Selecting a hard-core jet may not imply you select surface biased jet.
For that you need to show the same dijet Aj measurement in isobar like
in Au+Au. If you have any result to demonstrate that you are selecting
surfaced bias jet in Isobar, please show those results.
I think we have not done that study.

I believe Rosi's comments address my thoughts on this as well

Slide 12

> I am stating that although it may be described using the same

I would suggest to give a clear idea what could be that different
process, For example...?
Otherwise do not create unnecessary doubt or make statement just for a
buzz?

Rephrased

Cheers,

Tristan

Hello Rosi,

Thank you for your reply.
My overall suggestion on Tristan's presentation is that due to limited
time, let's only focus on the observation from this preliminary results.
for Any physics conclusion we need time to understand and discuss for
that we don't have time now.

Please find my response inline.

That is fine and it is just PAs choice.

Sorry, I still don't understand your argument here.
We don't have very good information about jet RAA/RCP in "isobar"
collision mainly kinematic range in pT etc. I know we have BES RCP which
is in Au+Au collision.
Here the system size is smaller compared to Au+AU.
Unless we measure Jet RAA/RCP in Isobar we should not make any
conclusion/statement based on what we know from Au+Au measurement.

But it is fine for me with the statement "there is evidence for non-zero
jet v2 at RHIC in Isobar collision."
We can't say anything more on "jet modification is path-length
dependent" in Isobar collisions; simply because in this measurement we
have not done any jet modification study.
For that we need to explicitly perform jet suppression study for this
system.

So I suggest to remove "Suggests that jet modification is path-length
dependent, even in medium sized systems!" on slide#18.
and replacing  this "there is evidence for non-zero jet v2 at RHIC in
Isobar collision." is very important conclusion here which is apparent
from the figure.
A further study is warranted to comment on path-length dependent jet
modification which we can discuss after HQ.

As I mentioned above, we have not done any Aj measurement in this small
system Isobar collisions.
And we do not have enough time to have this discussion before HQ which
we can discuss after the conf.
Using same process/cuts may not imply the jets we find are also surfaced
biased in small system, for this concern we can discuss in details
later.

Looking forward to seeing Tristan's updated version.
