1. Motivation (I)N. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 3
Unsatisfactory aspects in available formalisms for radiative eloss:
Salgado, Wiedemann, '04● Jet shapes and associatedmultiplicities will be measured atthe LHC by ALICE, ATLAS andCMS (see the talks by the LHC exps.).
● Compromise between energycalibration and fluctuations:
Measurable jet shapes:
1. Motivation (IV)N. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 6
Dilution of the medium already taken into account (Baier et al, '98; Gyulassy,Vitev, Wang, '01; Salgado, Wiedemann, '02; '03):
But what if the hard parton is not produced in the frame comovingwith the medium, either longitudinally or transversely?
2. Radiation in a flowing medium (I)
N. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 7
Usual assumption:
c~2 (pQCD); c~10 (Eskola et al, '04; Daineseet al '04) from RHIC RAA
light analysis.
The success of ideal hydro:
For =0.5, 1, 1.5, one gets p/p=1,5,18 which may lead to a substantialincrease in radiative eloss.
2. Radiation in a flowing medium (II)
N. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 8
Assumption for longitudinal expansion:hard partons are not produced in the mediumcomoving frame, so momentum exchangeswith the radiating partons becomeanisotropic.
At first order in the opacity expansion(Gyulassy, Levai, Vitev, '00; Wiedemann, '00)
In the comoving frame, <kT>~snL; flow contribution q0~.
Our ansatz

We compute
Energy deposition asymmetric due to:● Random emission.● t- or pT-ordering in emission.● Jacobian:
Vacuum: D0 parametrization(Abbott et al, '97); vacuum (medium)regulated for R<0.04 (0.01).

Asymmetry clearly visible.

3. v2, and the determination of qhat (II)
N. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 12
Using a blast wave parametrization offlow profile at freeze-out (Lisa, Retiere, '03).
Flow may affect our extraction of qhat.

Determination of qhat?

Flow effects on jet profile 15
● Analysis of RAA for light particles with quenching weights, geometry andBjorken expansion give qhat~10 GeV2/fm (4-15; dNg/dy~1000(-3500)).
● RAA for electrons shows uncertainties to be clarified.
● More stringent upper bound to come, hopefully, from less inclusivemeasurements.
● AdS/CFT correspondence give values~3 GeV2/fm for T~300 MeV:upper bound?
● Consideration of flow may reduceqhat.

4. ConclusionsN. Armesto
Flow effects on jet profile 16
● Flow should modify the pattern of medium-induced radiation if thehard parton is produced in a frame not comoving with the medium.Even the absence of such effect would tell us about its dynamicalexpansion.
● An exploratory study illustrates two examples of such effect:* Longitudinal elongation of the jet shape.* Moderate increase of v2.
● More elaborated implementations show the influence on the determinationof the transport coefficient and on the picture of the medium: flow maymimic the effect of a larger energy density.● More exclusive studies than RAA will be crucial, together withheavy flavors, to set this matter: hadrons at RHIC and the LHC, andcalorimetric measurements at the LHC. This demands new theoreticaltools under development.
