STAR HardProbes PWG

[Youqi Song <youqi.song AT yale.edu>]

Hi conveners,

Here are the slides for the presentation yesterday where we updated the paper proposal https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/star_collab_meeting_022823_1.pdf. We think we are ready to move to PWGC review and Barbara is also happy with us moving forward. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you!

Best,

Youqi, Raghav and Helen

Hi HP conveners,

I would like to follow up on the paper proposal I presented at our PWG meeting last week. I have updated my slides here https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/paper_proposal_021023.pdf based on the feedback I got from the meeting:

Slide 12 - I've made the conclusions in a bullet point form. Hopefully this highlights our physics messages more crisply.

Slide 17 - I included an example of a large dM jet from a PYTHIA event.

As mentioned last week, we have been talking to some theorists who agreed to provide some predictions for the collinear jet mass. I am also finalizing the systematic uncertainties so that we can arrive at a more concrete comparison with the MC generators.

We would like to know if this analysis could be pushed to PWGC review soon or if there is anything else that people would like us to prepare for. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments. Thanks!

Best,

Youqi
