摘要
Partonic energy loss in the medium formed in heavy ion collisions results in significant modifications of jet spectra. Quantitative understanding of these modifications can constrain models for partonic energy loss in heavy ion collisions. The ALICE detector is capable of unique measurements of jets due to its low momentum tracking and particle identification capabilities. The ALICE Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMCAL) is a key element for the measurement of fully reconstructed jets in ALICE due to its measurement of neutral particles and its triggering capabilities. Measurements of fully reconstructed jet spectra and the nuclear modification factor, R-AA, in Pb-Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV are presented.
