19 19 Chiu & Hwa, PRC 72, 034903 (2005) hard parton shower parton, leads to the trigger particle energy loss converts to soft particles At higher trigger momentum, the hard parton originate closer to the surface, so less energy is lost. Hence no pedestal. hard parton trigger hadron At low trigger momentum, hard partons can originate farther in.  Those soft particles form the pedestal. pedestal  T=15 MeV

31 31 s hard parton scattering fragmentation If they are produced by hard scattering followed by fragmentation, one expects jets of particles. There are other particles associated with and Hwa & CB Yang, nucl-th/0602024 recombination ss sss

32 32 Select events with  or  in the 3<p T <6 region, and treat them as trigger particles. Predict: no associated particles giving rise to peaks in , near-side or away-side. We claim that no shower partons are involved in  production, so no jets are involved.

35 35 Forward production of hadrons PHOBOS, nucl-ex/0509034 Without knowing p T, it is not possible to determine x F Back et al, PRL 91, 052303 (2003)

36 36 Theoretically, can hadrons be produced at x F > 1? It seems to violate momentum conservation, p L > √s/2. In pB collision the partons that recombine must satisfy p B But in AB collision the partons can come from different nucleons BA (TFR) In the recombination model the produced p and  can have smooth distributions across the x F = 1 boundary.

42 42  and p production at high p T at LHC New feature at LHC: density of hard partons is high. High p T jets may be so dense that neighboring jet cones may overlap. If so, then the shower partons in two nearby jets may recombine. 2 hard partons 1 shower parton from each  p

43 43 The particle detected has some associated partners. There should be no observable jet structure distinguishable from the background. GeV/c That is very different from a super-high p T jet. But they are part of the background of an ocean of hadrons from other jets. A jet at 30-40 GeV/c would have lots of observable associated particles.

45 45 We predict for 10<p T <20 Gev/c at LHC Large p/  ratio NO associated particles above the background

46 46 Summary B.No Jet Correlation 1.  and  production up to p T ~ 6 GeV/c 2.Forward production at any p T 3.Large p T at LHC A.Jet Correlation p T1 -p T2 1-21-2 1-21-2 near side away side auto-correl Jet fragmentation at high and Recombination at No trigger bias, need more data at high p T There’s jet quenching, but not necessarily fragmentation ? ? ? When recombination dominates over fragmentation, B/M ratio can be very large, and there would be no jets, no jet structure and no correlation above background.
