RHIC Correlations and High-pT Measurements with ATLAS

Many new results on high-pT particle production in heavy ion collisions have resulted from measurements at RHIC. However, since the first evidence of jet quenching from single particle spectra, many new and surprising results have become available. In this talk we review the current state of high-pT...

Sumario:Many new results on high-pT particle production in heavy ion collisions have resulted from measurements at RHIC. However, since the first evidence of jet quenching from single particle spectra, many new and surprising results have become available. In this talk we review the current state of high-pT correlations from RHIC and ask the questions that these data provide. We then discuss the ATLAS detector at the LHC and their capabilities of jet measurements. This is done in the context of the possibility of event-by-event measurements and measuring the jet energy scale illuminating the RHIC discoveries.
