List of paper figures (Inclusive jets in AuAu 200 GeV)

 
Fig. 1 - Distribution of pTreco and jet area for the inclusive charged-jet population (pTleadmin=0) in central Au+Au collisions.
Upper panels: pTreco vs jet area for 
R=0.2 (left) and R=0.4 (right). Middle and lower panels: projection onto the jet area axis.
Also shown are area distributions for PYTHIA-generated (middle) and SP jets (lower) with pTembed=10 and 20 GeV/c,
embedded
into real \AuAu\ data for central collisions. The vertical dashed lines show the jet area cut. See text for details.  

 


Fig. 2 - Distribution of inclusive jet candidates passing the jet area cut as a function of pTreco for R=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4, in peripheral
(left) and central (right) Au+Au collisions.

peripheral; right: central. Upper:R=0.2; middle: R=0.3; lower: 
R=0.4.  The distributions for pTleadmin=0 are the same as those in Fig. 2.


Fig. 4 - Instrumental jet response: distribution of pTdet for u-quark jets  generated by PYTHIA with various values of pTpart,
with detector effects corresponding to those in central Au+Au collisions. Jets have R=0.3 and are selected with the requirement
pTleadmin=5 GeV/c, at both the particle and detector level. 
The red distributions show a Gaussian functional fit to the peak region
of each distribution, 
with relative width of the fit as shown.

for u-quarks and gluons in the ratio 2:1 (labelled ``nominal", pure u, pure g, and variation of the relative tracking efficiency by
+/-5% for the nominal population.

for R=0.2 (left) and R=0.4 (right). Upper panels: pTembed=20 GeV/c for SP jets, 
SP jets with v2-modulated background, and light quark
jets generated by PYTHIA. 
 Lower panels: SP jets for several values of pTembed. See text for details.

Fig. 9 - Distribution of pTcorr for PM-generated events for various values of pTleadmin, compared to central Au+Au collisions
data shown in Fig. 3. The PM parameters are given in Tab. II. Left: R=0.2; right R=0.4.  The lower panels show the ratio of the
PM 
and data distributions for pTleadmin=0 and pTleadmin=5 GeV/c.

Fig. 11 - The inclusive cross section of pions in p+p collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV from measurements and from a PYTHIA
simulation (see text for details). The lower panel shows the ratios of 
data and PYTHIA distributions.


Fig. 12 - Corrected quasi-inclusive charged jets in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV, for R=0.2, 0.3, and 0.4. Left: peripheral;
right: 
central Au+Au collisions. Upper: pTleadmin=5.0 GeV/c; lower: pTleadmin=7.0 GeV/c. Correlated and shape systematic uncertainties
are shown separately. The 
value of pTjetch is shifted for each data point to account for the spectrum shape.

 

Fig. 13 - Ratio of quasi-inclusive charged-jet cross sections for R = 0.2 (red) and 0.4 (blue) in pp collisions at sqrt(s)= 200 GeV simulated by PYTHIA,
for p_T,lead^min =
 5 GeV/c relative to the unbiased distribution (“5/0”, dashed) and p_T,lead^min = 7 GeV/c relative to p_T,lead^min = 5 GeV/c (“7/5”, solid).

 


Fig. 14 - Ratio of distributions from Fig. 12 for pTleadmin=7.0 GeV/c and 5.0 GeV/c, for R=0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 in
peripheral (top) and central (bottom) Au+Au collisions. 
The systematic uncertainty of the ratio accounts for the correlated
systematic uncertainty of numerator and denominator. 


Fig. 15 - RCP ((0-10\%)/(60-80\%)) for Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV, for R=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4. See text for details. 


Fig. 16 - RCP distributions from Fig. 14 compared to that measured in Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV, for R=0.2

are RCP\ for inclusive charged hadrons in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV and
in Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 
TeV. The charged hadrons RCP distributions are the same in the two panels. 
The different choices of centrality class are discussed in the text.  


Fig. 17 - RAA^pyth for quasi-inclusive charged jets in peripheral (top) and central (bottom) Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV,
for R=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4. 
The reference spectrum for p+p collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV is generated by PYTHIA; see text for details.
The region where the bias due to the pTleadmin cut 
is small is indicated by the vertical dashed line.

have a cut on pTleadmin. Only points from the region where the bias in the data due to the p_T,lead^min cut is small are shown.

 



Fig. 19- Comparison of RAA^pyth from Fig. 17 (stars) to theoretical calculations for full jets labeled as NLO (solid line), SCET (dashed line), and Hybrid Model (histogram).
See text for details of 
the calculations. Only points from the region where the bias in the data due to the p_T,lead^min cut is small are shown. The simulated distributions do not 
have a cut on pTleadmin. 


Fig. 20 - Ratio of quasi-inclusive yields for charged jets with R=0.2 and R=0.4, for peripheral (left) and central (right) Au+Au
collisions at 
sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV and pTleadmin=5 GeV/c. Calculations of this ratio are shown for charged jets in p+p collisions 
at sqrt(s)=200 GeV simulated by 
PYTHIA and HERWIG; both panels show the same distributions from these calculations.
Also are predictions for 
fully-reconstructed jets in Au+Au collisions from the theoretical calculations described in Sect. X.
The simulated distributions do not have a 
cut on pTleadmin.
