Parton energy loss in heavy-ion collisions via direct-photon and charged-particle azimuthal correlations

Parton energy loss in heavy-ion collisions via direct-photon and charged-particle azimuthal correlations

Charged-particle spectra associated with direct photon (γdir) and pi0 are measured in p+p and Au+Au collisions at center-of-mass energy [sqrt]sNN=200 GeV with the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. A shower-shape analysis is used to partially discriminate between γdir and pi0. Ass...
