Cuts:

|Vz|<30 cm
|eta|<1
|dca|< 1 cm 
NFIt > 20 points
NFit/NFitPossible > 0.52
Track Pt or Tower Et<1000GeV

no pileup removal

anti-kT algorithm
R = 0.4
ghost area 0.01

Dijet |Δφ-π|<0.4

14M events, found 0.027 M dijet pairs (no jet pT requirement) 


Method:

1. Search for dijet pair to define the φdijet = ( φLeadingSubLeading )/ 2 . Should be φdijet = ( φLeading +(π-φSubLeading ))/ 2.
Both TPC tracks and BEMC towers are used for jet reconstruction by fastjet pacakge.  

2. Loop over tracks (charged particles only) 

|φ-φdijet|<60 degree --> Leading jet direction
|φ-φdijet|>120 degree --> SubLeading jet direction
60 degree<|φ-φdijet|<120 degree --> transverse direction

For the two transverse directions, the one with larger pT sum of the charged particle is defined as TranMax. The other is TranMin. 

3. Sum the multiplciity in various directions.
Calucate the average pT in various directions.

Result:

1. Leading jet Pt Distribution:

2. SubLeading Jet Pt vs Leading Jet Pt

3. Ntrk in Leading Jet Direction vs Leading Jet Pt
 (number of charged particles in |φ-φdijet|<60 degree, including the particles belongs to leading jet) :

4. Sum of charged particle pT in Leading Jet Direction vs Leading Jet Pt. The title in the plot was wrong: it is sum not mean <pT>.
 (in |φ-φdijet|<60 degree, including the particles belongs to leading jet) : 


5. Ntrk in SubLeading Jet Direction vs Leading Jet Pt
(number of charged particles in |φ-φdijet|>120 degree, including the particles belongs to subleading jet) :

 
6. Sum of particle pT in recoil side of Jet Direction vs Leading Jet Pt. The title in the plot was wrong: it is sum not mean <pT>.
(in |φ-φdijet|>120 degree, including the particles belongs to subleading jet) : 


7. Ntrk in Transverse direction vs Leading Jet Pt

8. <pT> in transverse direction vs Leading Jet Pt

9. Ntrk in TranMax vs Leading Jet Pt


10. <pT> in TranMax vs Leading Jet Pt


11. Ntrk in TranMin vs Leading Jet Pt


12 <pT> in TranMin vs Leading Jet Pt





All the plots show a dip at Leading Jet Pt  ~ 12 GeV
