LNF: JET PHYSICS AT FORWARD-RAPIDITY IN HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS
LABORATORI NAZIONALI DI FRASCATI
Speaker: Prof.Xin-Nian Wang (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Berkeley) Jet physics plays an essential role in understanding the nuclear structure at short distance and properties of the hot and dense QCD matter in heavy-ion collisions. The forward rapidity in experiments such as LHCb provide a window for furthering these studies in a difference regime of energy and density. In this talk, I will discuss about jet and electroweak boson studies in p+A collisions which can help to provide constraints on parton distributions in large nuclei. I will also discuss jet quenching in the forward direction and their implication on jet tomography of hot QCD matter.
