  1. Hard Probes with focus on LHC data γ jet Yen-Jie Lee (CERN) Quark Matter 2012 - Hard Probes

  2. Probe the medium Quark Matter 2012 - Hard Probes • Goal: Understand the property of QGP • Problem: the lifetime of QGP is so short (O(fm/c)) such that it is not feasible to probe it with an external source. • Solution: Take the advantage of the large cross-sections of high pT jets, γ/W/Z, quarkonia at the LHC energy, use hard probes produced with the collision. Material External source
