Medium Response and Jet-Hadron Correlations in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions (2211.16821v2)

Published 30 Nov 2022 in nucl-th, hep-ph, and nucl-ex

Abstract: High-energy heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider have evolved from qualitative understanding into precise extraction of the properties of the Quantum Chromodynamics medium at extremely high temperature. Jet quenching has offered unique insights into the transport properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) created in these energetic collisions. Apart from medium modification of jets, jet-induced medium excitation constitutes another crucial aspect of jet-QGP interaction, and is indispensable in understanding the soft components of jets. We review recent theoretical and phenomenological developments on medium response to jet energy loss, including an overview of both weakly and strongly coupled approaches for describing the thermalization and propagation of energy deposition from jets, effects of medium response on jet observables, and exploration of its unique signatures in jet-hadron correlations. Jet-induced medium excitation is shown to be an essential component in probing the in-medium dynamics of jets and a critical step towards precise extraction of the QGP properties.
