TL;DR
This paper reports on jet measurements in proton-proton and deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC, providing baseline data crucial for understanding medium effects in heavy-ion collisions.
Contribution
It presents the first detailed mid-rapidity inclusive jet spectra and di-jet correlation results in p+p and d+Au collisions at 200 GeV from RHIC.
Findings
Jet spectra in p+p and d+Au collisions characterized
Di-jet correlations analyzed to study k_T broadening
Baseline data for heavy-ion collision studies provided
Abstract
Full jet reconstruction in heavy-ion collisions is a promising tool for the quantitative study of properties of the dense medium produced at RHIC. In addition to baseline measurements in p+p, results from d+Au collisions are needed to disentangle initial state nuclear effects from medium-induced k_T broadening and jet quenching. We present mid-rapidity inclusive jet p_T spectra and di-jet correlations (k_T) in 200~GeV p+p and d+Au collisions from the 2007-2008 RHIC run.
