Unravelling Medium Effects in Heavy Ion Collisions with Zeal

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose a new observable, called zeal, to analyze events with jets in heavy ion collisions. The observable measures how a thermal medium affects the multiplicity and distribution of energetic particles in a jet. Using few known models for energy loss and jet quenching, we demonstrate its capability to distinguish the physics of these models.
