Description
An energetic parton traversing the QCD matter should lose energy due to its multiple scattering with other partons in the medium. This attenuation of parton energy or so-called jet quenching will leave its fingerprint not only on leading hadron spectra but also on (reconstructed) jet productions in relativistic heavy-ion reactions. In this talk I will discuss several jet observables (such as jet shapes, inclusive jet productions, di-jet momentum imbalance as well as the gauge boson tagged jet productions) in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions to show how the jet-medium interactions in the hot/dense QCD matter modify jet properties.
