description | Jet quenching has been established as one of the main tools to study the properties of the medium produced in heavy ion collisions. Most of the experimental effort has been, up to now, on the measurements of inclusive particle suppression. This observable suffers, however, of limitations due to different trigger-bias effects. The study of jets (or particle correlations) in a medium is the most promising way out for a better characterization of the medium properties. I will present how these more differential measurements can be used to study not only the density of the medium (the traditional parameter fixed by jet quenching measurements) but also more dynamical quantities as flow fields. |
