Recent hard probe measurements from STAR

Recent hard probe measurements from STAR

High momentum transfer processes can be reliably calculated by perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD). Products of those hard processes, high transverse momentum particles, jets, and heavy quarks (hard probes), interact with the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in relativistic heavy-ion collisio...
