Dijet imbalance in 2.76 TeV PbPb collisions in CMS

We report on dijet production in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV studied with the CMS detector at the LHC. A large dijet momentum imbalance is observed in central PbPb collisions, which reduces in the more peripheral collisions. This observation is consistent w...

description We report on dijet production in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV studied with the CMS detector at the LHC. A large dijet momentum imbalance is observed in central PbPb collisions, which reduces in the more peripheral collisions. This observation is consistent with a jet quenching scenario, where the partons lose energy propagating through the hot and dense QCD medium. An initial study of gamma-jet correlations is also presented.
