Jet Quenching (Hard scattered parton)• Good probe for studying the property of dense matter.• Sensitive to gluon density in the medium
Azimuthal Angular Dependence of RAA(pT, )• Out-of-plane RAA (i.e. Long path length)
Reproduce RAA for both cases of pQCD and AdS/CFT• In-plane RAA (i.e. Short path length)
Difference between pQCD and AdS/CFT models
Ongoing Work• Constrain the model parameters in the medium• Extract the path-length dependence of RAA
Probe the Nature of the Medium at LHC• Path-length dependence of RAA is a valid and powerful tool
