A simple model to constration jet energy loss distributions for specific event classes in relativistic heavy ion collisions.
ORAL
Abstract
We report an the application of a simple, empirical model for jet-quenching in heavy-ion collisions to study energy loss distributions. This simple model, referred to as ezQuench, combines a Bayesian approach that combines a minimal number of parameters (2-3) with initial state geometry from the TRENTO model to describe jet observables. It has previously been used to study centrality-dependent nuclear modification factors using different assumptions for formation times and the treatment of correlation of systematic errors. In this work we extend the ezQuench model to compare to dijets and the Rg dependents of the nuclear modification factor.
