Effects of jet-induced medium excitation in -hadron correlation in A+A collisions
Coupled Linear Boltzmann Transport and hydrodynamics (CoLBT-hydro) is
developed for co-current and event-by-event simulations of jet transport and
jet-induced medium excitation (j.i.m.e.) in high-energy heavy-ion collisions.
This is made possible by a GPU parallelized (3+1)D hydrodynamics that has a
source term from the energy-momentum deposition by propagating jet shower
partons and provides real time update of the bulk medium evolution for
subsequent jet transport. Hadron spectra in -jet events of A+A
collisions at RHIC and LHC are calculated for the first time that include
hadrons from both the modified jet and j.i.m.e.. CoLBT-hydro describes well
experimental data at RHIC on the suppression of leading hadrons due to parton
energy loss. It also predicts the enhancement of soft hadrons from j.i.m.e. The
onset of soft hadron enhancement occurs at a constant transverse momentum due
to the thermal nature of soft hadrons from j.i.m.e. which also have a
significantly broadened azimuthal distribution relative to the jet direction.
Soft hadrons in the direction are, on the other hand, depleted due to
a diffusion wake behind the jet.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures in LaTeX, final version published in PL
