Jet Measurements in Heavy Ions with the ATLAS Experiment

Jets are an important tool to study the hot, dense matter produced in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. They are produced at the early stages of the collisions and are expected to be modified as they propagate through the hot and dense medium.

Sumario:Jets are an important tool to study the hot, dense matter produced in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. They are produced at the early stages of the collisions and are expected to be modified as they propagate through the hot and dense medium. This leads to energy loss as well as modification of the jet structure. This talk presents the latest jet measurements from Run 2 heavy-ion collisions data from ATLAS. The results shown include measurements of inclusive jet suppression, the angular distribution of charged particles around the jet axis, and measurements of the jet internal structure characterised by the transverse momentum scale for the hardest splitting. The data provide important information to understand the strength and mechanism of the jet quenching.
