M. T. AlFiky, O. T. ElSherif, A. M. Hamed

TL;DR
This study investigates jet quenching signatures in small proton-proton collision systems at RHIC and LHC energies using simulated data, revealing multiplicity-dependent suppression patterns that challenge current interpretations.
Contribution
It provides a baseline analysis of jet quenching indicators in small systems, highlighting the limitations of current suppression measures in p-p collisions.
Findings
Both near-side and away-side yields decrease with multiplicity.
Suppression patterns are observed at both collision energies.
Results suggest caution in interpreting jet quenching signals in small systems.
Abstract
The aim of this study is to set a baseline for the jet quenching measurements of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) formed in the large system size Nucleus-Nucleus (A-A) at top central collisions, via studying simulated small system size, Nucleon-Nucleon (N-N) collisions. The proton-proton (p-p) collisions were simulated using PYTHIA, at center of mass energies and corresponding to the available energies at the current collider experiments; the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). At both energies, the two-particle azimuthal correlation functions have been considered, and the yield associated with the high transverse momentum () particles were extracted at its near-side () and away-side () at mid pseudo rapidity ().
